“Deployment compilation failed – File not found”
While compiling the bot for deployment, Automation Anywhere tried to access Get_new_users
One or more files/resources referenced inside that task are missing or unreachable
Because of this, the bot cannot run on the Bot Runner

 

Add a Log Message at the start of Get_new_users:
Copy code

"Bot reached Get_new_users"
If deployment still fails → issue is compile-time dependency If bot starts and fails → issue is runtime path/access

Yes, Issue is still there after adding log message.
issue is compile-time dependency
what is the workaround?

@teja 6683 Unfortunately, there is no easy answer.

  • Is this for a Task Bot?
  • Does this Task Bot call other Task Bots (e.g., using the Task Bot: Run action)?
  • Does it reference files uploaded to the Control Room (e.g., an Excel file or an XML config file)?
  • Was this automation moved? Does it work if you return it to its original location?

Let’s start there.
