this could be caused by huge ps or pdf files; best to check in the logs if there are errors, and when this started to happen.

Hi Martin,

thanks for the information. the issue happens quite often nowadays.

I found this error ERROR: PTK0215 : Error evaluating resource type for C:\ProgramData\Objectif Lune\PlanetPress Suite 7\PlanetPress Watch\Spool\11.tmp\job010D0L7EPU36TAEA047.dat: Error converting file: A file could not be opened.. with line showPDF(&current.datafilename,&current.metadatapage,0,0)


Not too sure what is it.

Your help is appreciated smile

first be sure you're using latest version 7.6.2 as this is fixing some issues of this sort.
And check the Alambic settings in the Workflow preferences (plug-ins/Messenger). If you have enough cpu cores available just increase the number of Alambic instances, and let idle ones close after a few minutes.
After all if still having issues also check the Messenger log for more information.

There is also a patch available for the Alambic engine that may resolve this kind of issue. See [https://help.objectiflune.com/en/#pps].
