hi all,

I want to trigger the running of the "Error Handling - MasterGeo" composite each time I run "Update MasterGeo" composite node. The natural flow of data is to the final excel node so I would like to be able to execute that node and for the Error Handling node to run automatically as well.
I tried linking a clock from "Update Master node" output clock to the input clock on "Error Handling - MasterGeo", and running the excel node, but "Error Handling - MasterGeo" failed to run when I execute the excel node at the end.
is there something I'm doing wrong?

thanks

Dougas

By linking the output clock of "Update Master node" to the input clock on "Error Handling - MasterGeo", you are saying that the "Error Handling - MasterGeo" node can't run unless the "Update Master Node" has completed successfully.
However, if there are no clocks into the excel node, then the excel node does not rely on the "Error Handling - MasterGeo" node running successfully.
It seems like in addition to the clocking you mentioned, you also should wire the outclock from the "Error Handling - MasterGeo" node to the inclock of the Excel node in order to ensure that the excel node cannot run until the error handling checks have run successfully.
