Good morning

Installed 7.6.0 on my test server, and have found that jobs which use a file trigger fail to populate the trigger variables. One such job returns the following error when run in 7.6.0 yet worked file in 7.5.1 (see below). When reviewing the variables in the variable panel for the active job after it has run/failed, the value preview reports that "no Trigger specified (perhaps Job is not created yet?)".

I went ahead and created a new file trigger in a new job and it exhibits the same issue.

Exception in Task: System.ArgumentException: Illegal characters in path.

1. which Variables do you use exactly?
2. when you write the Variables to file using File write Task - what values do you have there?

These are the ones that I generally use with the Direct ID.
{TRIGGER(8f676dce-f63d-4814-a44a-d77eef5bf04a|LastTrigger|File.Folder)}
{TRIGGER(8f676dce-f63d-4814-a44a-d77eef5bf04a|LastTrigger|File.FileMask)}
{TRIGGER(8f676dce-f63d-4814-a44a-d77eef5bf04a|LastTrigger|File.Result.TriggerFolder)}
{TRIGGER(8f676dce-f63d-4814-a44a-d77eef5bf04a|LastTrigger|File.Result.Name)}

{TRIGGER(Active|LastTrigger|File.Result.Name)}

The result of writing the variables of the above to file is:
No Trigger specified (perhaps Job is not created yet?)
No Trigger specified (perhaps Job is not created yet?)
No Trigger specified (perhaps Job is not created yet?)
No Trigger specified (perhaps Job is not created yet?)

The 'Active' is functioning... The 'Direct ID' is not.

When did you download 7.6.0? Because we refreshed it on Monday with a fix.

Friday when it was released.
I will download the newest from the site, and try it.

The latest build has the variables working correctly.

Thanks for the feedback!
