I have connected to http://remote.dev2.co.za:3142 through my Warewolf application.
I renamed a folder without any trouble. I later closed and reopened the application and the rename had been undone. This is very frustrating.

I tried to use the feedback tool to send some feedback about the Explorer. I recorded and filled in comments but the only buttons available were "Cancel" and "Go to Community".
I am not sure if my feedback was sent to you as there was a long lag after clicking "Go to Community". Then the dialogue box closed and I was brought here. See attaches screengrab,

I have a data payload that I need to perform sub-strings on.
I can get the starting and ending indexes, but have no idea how to use these to create a sub-string.
I have checked the calculate functions and tried using the DataSplit tool.
The best I have managed to do is use the DataSplit tool to get everything after the start index, but I cannot seem to get it to stop at the end index without using a second DataSplit tool.
Its frustrating to use 4 tools to perform such a simple function. ( 2 Find Index and 2 DataSplit tools )
I will not create a workflow to do this as I need to use First and Last index in the Find Index tool depending on which string I am searching for. 

Can you please advise how I can do with with 3 or less tools. I understand the need to use 2 Find Index tools. I would like to know how to use a single tool to sub-string?

I am trying to use Warewolf to fetch a web page's contents. The URL is : http://www.coinwarz.com/cryptocurrency/
Everytime I try and debug I keep getting the following error : The request was aborted. The operation has timed out.
Yet when I use wget to fetch the same URL it fetches and saves to disk in 0.3 - 0.4 seconds.
I believe you have a bug in your Web Request tool such that it never properly executes the fetch request.

I really would like this fixed so I can use it to process data, else I need to write bash scripts since wget will fetch without timing out.

Hi There

Sequence tool is very useful while developing a large workflow and now my workflow looks very simple. 
I would really like to appreciate the idea of developing a sequence tool.
But when I try to drag and drop a workflow with decision or switch, it wasn't allow me to drop.
then I tried many times and concluded, this is not working properly, but anyhow I realized later that sequence doesn't allow decision and switch. 
So if we have a validation message when user try dragging a decision or switch tool inside the sequence it could be very nice.

Thanks

When performing a longer running activity such as file processing id like to fire off the workflow. Have it return to me as the called immediately. Then internally it can email me / whoever when its complete. At the moment the call to the workflow is blocking.

Hello, I am having problem with the the installation. I get the message "Cannot Start Server Service" and the option to Try again. Is there something I can do in my computer settings to fix this?

If you think back to .net remoting you'll prob need to read no further but in case you missed that "fun" time read on.

I have a recordset with X rows.
I need to perform some validation for each one to decide whether to exclude this record at this point (carrying on would result in failure)

Hypothetical 
in my recordset is a return code. I then need to decide based on this code whether to proceed. lets assume of all 10 return codes 3 will allow the process to continue the other 7 are considered failure. 
I create my service that takes in a code and then gets a list of statuscodes and the resulting action. 
I then call this service for each entry in my recordset. If that services has to goto the DB each time its going to be a perfomant dog. If however it were to cache the results (as we do in code all the time - think lookup date bank names, branch codes, post codes etc) it would make performance much better
So what Im asking for is a services that is created but doesnt get collected once its been used. Singleton vs SingleCall
If this exists plz point me in the correct direction

When using foreach Id like to know the "count" that Im on.
I have 1000 records in my set and after say 100 id like todo something. Id need to know how many iterations the foreaach has gone over.
So like [[=currentCount]] or some such idea would be useful.

Secondly id like to be able to perform complex activities here. If I want to make a DB call after each 100 records re processed id need a decision and then a DB service. I recognise that I could make a seperate workflow for this it just seems lots of effort for a simple thing. 

I have a file from a payment processor with my debit responses.
There are 13k (6mn text file) lines in this file.
From time to time I get files that have bogus lines (blank lines you already cater for)
but lines that are badly formatted
Example (muchly simplieifed
File structure is as follows
first 13 chars ID NO
second 10 Surname
third 4 some response code

so example GOOD file would look as follows

9999999999999MYSURNAME 0010
8888888888888BlaName         0010
7777777777777  Name            0010

using the transform I can get this into a recordset really easily. I can the foreach over it or whatever. Happy days.
However then you get this
9999999999999MYSURNAME 0010
Crap Data
8888888888888BlaName 0010
7777777777777 Name 0010
 
Now the transform tool does its best but when it gets to the 2nd row it sticks "Crap Data" into the rs().IDNo and then rs().Surname is "888888888B" 
I want to tell the transform to make its best effort up until it finds (in my case) a line feed. Perhaps some companies would use a char to denote end of line. 
If I can do this I can then take my 13k entries and I can filter out the BAD ones and do something with say the 3 lines that are invalid.

PS Id really like to email the bad ones to somebody :)

Is there any way to attempt to solve my current use case? Fixed delimited files are common when dealing with financial institutions and tho bulk insert in sql may be faster id rather take a bit longer and have the ability to handle error cases (try finding a prob in a 13k lines file when using bulk insert :)
