Get File Size action reports 0 length for file that does not exist

Automise Bugs

This behaviour is different from e.g. Calculate File CRC32 which fails if the specified file is not found.

Hi Mr Rimmer,

I have updated Automise with a fix for this issue. You can find a new installation located here:

I get the following warnings after installing over an old (test) installation:

WARNING : Package file C:\Program Files (x86)\Automise 4\ActionDefs\VSoft.BeyondCompare.pkgx not found. This package has been removed from the Package Manager.    
WARNING : Package file C:\Program Files (x86)\Automise 4\ActionDefs\VSoft.GetFileDate.pkgx not found. This package has been removed from the Package Manager.    
WARNING : Package file C:\Program Files (x86)\Automise 4\ActionDefs\VSoft.MessageBoxes.pkgx not found. This package has been removed from the Package Manager.    

Is this anything to be concerned about?

Hi Mr Rimmer,

If the following packages are listed in the package manager for Automise there is nothing to be concerned about.

C:\Program Files (x86)\Automise 4\ActionDefs\VSoft.BeyondCompare.pkg
C:\Program Files (x86)\Automise 4\ActionDefs\VSoft.GetFileDate.pkg
C:\Program Files (x86)\Automise 4\ActionDefs\VSoft.MessageBoxes.pkg

(Note that they are meant to be pkg files not pkgx files).

In a previous release these were marked for encryption. However as they are open source action packages they should have been left unencrypted, this is simply noting the encrypted packages are no longer present.
