    XMLWordPrintable

Details

    Description

      Current Situation

      When a powershell job is started on a windows machine that has default Ansi Code Page=UTF the job ends with exit code=1

      The message
      [ERROR SCHEDULER-360 Error when accessing database table SCHEDULER_HISTORY [COM-8007007A The data area passed to a system call is too small. [WideCharToMultiByte]]] can be seen in the task log.

      Desired Behaviour

      No error should be thrown when a job is executed on a window system with default Ansi Code Page=UTF

      Workaround

      set current culture to InvariantCulture

      $culture = [System.Globalization.CultureInfo]::InvariantCulture
      [System.Threading.Thread]::CurrentThread.CurrentUICulture = $culture
      [System.Threading.Thread]::CurrentThread.CurrentCulture = $culture

      Sample:

      <?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<job order="no" stop_on_error="no" tasks="1" title="powershell job" process_class="/agent">
    <script  language="powershell">
    <![CDATA[$culture = [System.Globalization.CultureInfo]::InvariantCulture
[System.Threading.Thread]::CurrentThread.CurrentUICulture = $culture
[System.Threading.Thread]::CurrentThread.CurrentCulture = $culture

$culture
dir
]]>
        </script>

    <run_time>
    </run_time>
</job>
