I may be wrong here, but it looks like it might be down to your "Domain" parameter. The "Domain" should be the Microsoft server domain name.

You've got an IP address populated there. See if you can find your MS Server Domain Name and give that a go.

Hi @rhall ,

This is my first time use tFileFetch component, fyi I don't use Microsoft server just another windows as a host to share folder. So, can I not to fill the "Domain" parameter just left it blank to reach the shared folder?

There are a few unknowns here. Have you tried connecting with that URI without using Talend? File sharing between Windows machines can be a pain. If you cannot access the files without Talend, it won't work Talend. So you must perfect this first. Once you can do this, then take what you have learned and apply it to Talend.

In regard to the Domain, do you not have a Domain for your network? How about a Workgroup? Try using that maybe. Take a look here https://www.oreilly.com/library/view/using-samba-second/0596002564/ch01s05.html

Hi @rhall,

Thanks for your help. I have tried that URl without using talend, and success. In my talend job still can't access the URl using tFileFetch component., I don't know why.

But I found a solution using tSystem using command "net use x: \\host\folder /user:username password" to access the shared folder and then connect it to tFileList to reach the file.

Great workaround! I will have to remember that one.

I'm afraid I do not use the SMB protocol very much, but I do know I have really had issues with it in the past.

Once again, thanks for demonstrating that there is always another way with Talend. Great work!
