Hi everyone, one question:
Does DB Extractor run on Windows 11?
So far it hasn't worked for me

Best answer by Rogerio Júnior

Hi Pablo,

The extractor (latest version 3.6.0) runs fine on Windows 11 installations. 
I did a quick test here, local Windows 11 machine (not a VM). All the functionalities, including the spreadsheet processing, work as expected for both standalone (.exe) and Windows service artifacts.

Hi ​@Pablo Palacios,

Mind sharing what "hasn't worked" means in terms of any error messages when starting it, log file info, etc?

FWIW, it's one of our work horses, so we know it works in most cases. And many of the on-premises systems run Windows 11, so without more info I can't even begin to speculate on a better response than "works on my system" (J/K!)

Hello:
We are using the extractor to extract data from Excel spreadsheets, same Excel file, same folder, everything is the same in terms of configuration of the YML file, the service runs without problems in Windows 10 and not in Windows 11, it does not generate any log at the config.yml level.
I share a part of the config.yml

  data-set:
id: 1243781567353350 #dataset sx5
#id: 6208043143431882 #dataset sx5_events

#path: "C:\Compartida\A-PROYECTOS DPA\SQM\SX5\12852 Programacion Planta SX5\SAT- OT-12582 SX5.xlsx"

queries:

-

Hi again Pablo,

If you haven’t already, would you mind configuring the logging functionality (debug logging) for the extractor, and try again? Then upload a sanitized version of the log here?

 

In the config file:

logger:
# Logging to file. Remove or comment out to disable file logging
file:
level: DEBUG
path: "/path/to/file.log"

# (Optional) Log retention (in days).
#retention: 7
