[#1]

I have putfile processor. Input directory "X:\ab\${path}" for recurse puting files and set max file count in input directory 10000, but it still writing there, not going to failed. Why? But when setting X:\ab\ whithout ${path} it works, but i need it. Any Ideas??

Make sure you define the Auto terminate relationship properly and handled the exception in the PutFile processor. Make sure to route the failed message to failure queue.

You should able to see the following exception in the log.

Yes, I did this, but my output directory is d:/abc/${path}
