Error within XML-metadata creation process - HELP

Anonymous — Fri, 11 Sep 2015 16:03:06 GMT

Hello community,

I want to map a XML-File to a CSV-File with Talend Open Studio for Data Integration but I've got a problem within the XML-metadata creation process. I use a simple XML-File with UTF-8 encoding.
To create the metadata file I follow these steps (These steps out of the book "Getting Started with Talend Open Studio for Data Integration by Jonathan Bown"):

Repository -> Meta-Data -> XML-File -> create XML-File -> Input XML -> Select File -> Encoding UTF-8 -> Select the XPath Loop Expression and the fields

Then when I click on "Refresh Preview" I receive an error message:
"Preview error. Some settings must be changed. Note: Preview errors are generelly due to wrong encoding setting."
What's the problem?

Thanks
Marc

Hi Marc

It might be the type of encoding. In e.g. Notepad++ files are distinguished in UTF-8 with or without BOM. As I recall, Talend prefers without 🙂

See the attached screenshot from Notepad++:

Hello Lise,

thank you very much for your message.
I solved the problem by running Talend Open Studio for Data Integration as an administrator.

hi,

I solved the problem by running Talend Open Studio for Data Integration as an administrator

It's not a good thing to run as admin.
Create a Talend workspace like c:/Talend where you don't need to be admin to create/modify files.
