Hi, No, since it is a runtime error, you will need to check the output form STAX EXECUTE .... RETURNRESULT, and if the 'Status' is 'Terminated' then you must check the STAX Job log for the error details.

I am meaning to submit the job from a Python script. It sounds pretty kludgy having to query the log to figure out what went wrong, isn't there some more direct way to catch the error?

From: Arve Knudsen <arve.knud...@gmail.com> To: staf-users@lists.sourceforge.net Date: 10/06/2010 05:49 AM Subject: [staf-users] How to get error information from STAX job Hello I am new to STAF/STAX and am trying to implement a job as a STAX function. First of all, I should like to get error information when the function call fails. So far I am testing by calling my function without its required arguments, but I can't for the life of me figure out how to get at the error. My STAX job definition is as simple as this: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no"?> <!DOCTYPE stax SYSTEM "stax.dtd"> <stax> <defaultcall function="NoOp"/> <function name="NoOp"> <function-list-args> <function-required-arg name="arg1"/> </function-list-args> <nop/> </function> </stax> I execute it with the command 'staf local stax EXECUTE FILE C:/Users/knuarv/STAX/test.xml MACHINE local WAIT RETURNRESULT'. The following information is then printed: Response -------- { Job ID : 51 Start Date-Time: 20101006-12:41:27 End Date-Time : 20101006-12:41:27 Status : Terminated Result : org.python.core.pyinsta...@de9738 Testcase Totals: { Tests : 0 Passes: 0 Fails : 0 } } How do I get the error information? I can see that it's failed, given that the Status is 'Terminated', but I need more detail.
