Renaming a File and moving it to another folder.

Hello dear community,

I have the following task which I unfortunately cannot get to work:

I need to move files from one folder to another folder. The file should be renamed using the current date.

 

Therefore, I have built the following program:

0683p000009M9vx.png

 

 

However, I get the following error message:

 

 

0683p000009MA4b.png

 

So, can you help me please:

a) is the program correct?

b) What does the error mean?

 

Kind regards, 

Newbee

TalendDate.formatDate("yyyyMMddHHmmss",TalendDate.getCurrentDate()) + "_" + ((String)globalMap.get("tFileList_1_CURRENT_FILE"))

 

In this example, if a file was called myfile.txt, then it would become
