PDSAT sampler - Failed

Edited

None

Hi,

Has anyone else received access to the Sampler yet? We have been given access now, but it is constantly failing a few minutes after it starts to process.

Just wondered if anyone else had experienced the same?

Thanks,

Claire

Ran one this morning and seems to be okay

What is it showing when you say it's failing? Do you get a prompt of any kind? Have you used the latest version of FIS to run your source file?

Claire Marshall

I think it is the file type I am using?

Exactly the same here, was given access last week, tried for the first time this morning, received the same error.

As it asks, I have contacted the Helpdesk

Ben James

Hmm, was the FIS file you uploaded via Returns a .zip?

If so, I'm not sure if it's anything you're doing. Your Sampler file above is missing the .xlsm (macro spreadsheet) suffix, but that file is an output, which suggests it's something on their end that isn't quite working? I'm guessing you've contacted the helpdesk? 

Ben James

With my troubleshooter hat on, just to check, are you using the latest version of FIS from April?

Claire Marshall

We are using the latest version 2223.11 yes. I have contacted the helpdesk who have passed it onto the developers....

Ben James - Do these settings look ok?

Hey, Before it moved online I think it was the SQL output needed :) trying to get mine to work but not happening at moment.

Both the SQL and direct Access/CSV export options work for me; just tested the latter to be certain there wasn't anything funky going on behind the scenes. Seems like it may just be another intermittent fault with the PDSAT environment. 

My Reports Dashboard still doesn't work, if it's any consolation

Getting the same error with the sampler (also my reports dashboard not working either)

Gareth Heald

I received an email stating the Sampler has been fixed, and I have now been able to create a ssample spreadsheet

Chris Roberts

Uploaded the FIS file but now it wont let me run the sample, any ideas please?

 

Ben James

Forgive the obviousness, but I presume you've actually attempted ticking the box to the left of '16 to 19 provision' before clicking 'Run'?

I mean my vision is pretty poor at the best of times, thanks for pointing out this out @...

Would definitely help if there was a column header, that's for sure!
