Issue/Introduction

When executing a Check Out process, an error message happens and the files are never checked out.  The error in the popup message box is: 

E03060019: Process Execute failed.  Process Name: Check Out for Update

After closing the popup message box we checked Workbench's Output Log and found:

---------- Begin <Harvest process name> Process ----------
E03020179: Execution of '<UDP script or executable name>' failed.
S10060050: The PreLinked process(es) failed for parent process: <Harvest process name>.
E03060019: Process Execute failed.  Process Name: <Harvest process name>.
---------- End <Harvest Process Name> Process ----------

 

Environment

Harvest Software Change Manager all versions

Cause

The error message of interest from the output log previously provided was:

S10060050: The PreLinked process(es) failed for parent process: <Harvest process name>.

When a pre-linked process fails, processing stops, and the main process it is attached to will never be executed.

 

Resolution

The options are:

1. Examine and debug the reason for the failure of the pre-linked process (See: When PreLinked or PostLinked process(es) fail)
2. Change it to a post-linked process so that even if it does fail, it will not prevent the main process from being executed
3. Remove the pre-linked process if it is not needed.
