Error message on job queues 1281

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
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?

    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

    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.

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

    Hope this help.

    Thanks,

    Steve
