Hi, new user here

I have several jobs that all work perfectly on their own from the GUI.

I am trying get the "Run a command" to run the next job On Completion. I am entering the full path to the "ffs_gui" file in the box.

First time I do this I get an error it needs run permissions, no problem i check the allow run in the properties box for the "ffs_gui" file.

Next time the chained job runs but does no syncronizing & shows an errors page it failed Exit Code 2 followed by 22 lines of "?xml:No such file or directory"

I think I must be missing some concept of how this works, Help!!

I tried creating the chained job as a "_batch" job but no difference. Running the chained job on its own works perfectly.

Thanks Paul

What if you run a command that runs the FFS executable with the ffs_gui file as a parameter instead of the gui file directly? Are you sure the path is typed correctly if it is saying it can't find it?

The path is definitely correct as the job runs perfectly from the main Gui.

Forgot to say I'm running Manjaro Linux.

My previous windows software, Syncronizeit, had a project window where you could add all the jobs you wanted to run together allowing you to create multiple projects each with multiple jobs.
