Copy Files Step in Pentaho

Question

I have a job that uses the copy files step which copies files from an authenticated server to another windows server. When I run the job from my local it seems to run fine, but when I place the job into the server and run it, there is an error thrown.

The File/Folder source is \\Folder\IlogB\2014-05-21\u_ex14052018_2014-05-21 03 00 02.log
The File/Folder destination is ftp://1c4:1c4@10.124.56.88/1CAAP/1413/data/

Unexpected error : java.io.FileNotFoundException: (The system cannot find the path specified)

Any ideas as to how I can make the job run when placed on the server?

Thanks in advance.

That's not an error message. Could you check the contents of the log file mentioned in the message? Maybe you'll find an error message there... — Marcus Rickert, Jun 19 '14 at 12:03

Hi, Yes that's not an error message I just mentioned the source and destination I used. — user3455309, Jun 19 '14 at 12:13
Hi, Yes they're the same question one of my associates must have posted the same using another account. sorry about that. — user3455309, Jun 19 '14 at 12:14
Yes the filename is without spaces only. The issue I believe is that Pentaho is unable to access the source server without me moving the job to my local where I have already given access credentials. I need to find a step that enables me to give pentaho the access credentials directly. Any step that can help me do that? — user3455309, Jun 19 '14 at 12:33

Your local system wouldn't by any chance be a Windows machine while your remote server is running Linux or any flavor of Unix, would it? My first suspect are those back slashes that should be forward slashes.
