Try using the tFileProperties component. The instructions are here: https://help.talend.com/reader/WWQ40R_iTE5~~9VkUQrjgQ/eIlUKdQbx8ra~XliW2EoPA

use tFileExit and if exist, complete your job else terminate. Identify correct Regular expression  and pass it in file path. Your flow should like below

 

tFileExist -----> Run If (((Boolean)globalMap.get("tFileExist_1_EXISTS")))  ---- > Rest of the Job

    |

    | Run If !(((Boolean)globalMap.get("tFileExist_1_EXISTS"))) 

 

tJavaRow (File does not exist)

 

Thanks
