I have a conditional wait set and a subsequent Delete Files/Folder but with the option “Fail if delete fails” disabled. Still the whole workflow invokes an error state triggering the inactive branch inverter a few component level up the “food chain”.
Alright so the issue if I am understanding this correctly is that while the node is waiting for the file deletion, and you execute the the top right 2 nodes here:
It will cause the Active Branch Inverter to execute and bypass all the top nodes. I am not able to reproduce it, but it may be because I am on a mac. I can try running this workflow on windows to see if I can encounter it.
I wish my two MBPs with display issues were still usable to test if Mac OS has any impact. Another idea what might happen is that the Delete Files/Folders nodes throws a soft error due to the disabled option to completely fail but the Active branch Inverted interferes, interpreting it as a hard error.
Yeah it is an intresting issue you have brought up, as for privacy reasons you cannot share the original workflow; I would try running it on a VM if possible to see if it is either machine related or workflow related. If you still get the same error then there is most likely a workflow issue.
Though it seems it will be hard to track down what is causing it. You could try compartmentalizing everything to make sure each every couple nodes run fine and slowly add more until you get to the error again.
