[Anonymous]

I am trying to list files with tfilelist and trying to delete files using tfiledelete component. when I try this process manually I am not getting any error but talend is throwing me below error.

TimeTracking_20190329.csv does not exist or is invalid or is not a file

the above mentioned file is not present in the folder 

ls TimeTracking_*
TimeTracking_20190328.csv

TimeTracking_20190508.csv

TimeTracking_20190511.csv

TimeTracking_20190517.csv

TimeTracking_20190402.csv

I cant understand from where it is trying to look for a file which is not existing and throwing error. Please help.

Hi,

    Could you please check whether the full path is getting added in the tFileDelete component?

Hi,

     I tried the following method and it worked seamlessly (although I tried in windows system, it should work fine in Linux too).

files before deletion

after deletion
