Posted on by 60

When creating a job queue to run a codeunit with the object ID  1281 to be able to update currency exchange rates, and we are getting following error message: 

A call to System.Xml.XmlElement.SelectNodes failed with this message: Expression must evaluate to a node-set. 

Any ideas what we are doing wrong or missing here?

    My Service is running and Job Queue running, If I run the job queue service, I get no errors.

    Hope this help.

    Thanks,

    Steve

    Yes, this error is because you are not defining Parent Node properly. Select Proper Parent Node from the drop down and give a try, it should work.

    Hi KRM,

    How did you manage to solve this issue? We are having exactly the same issue as you describe in this ticket on a new client install so would be grateful for help.

    Best regards,

    Jim
