resumption of step

[shaninga]

Good morning,

for the way resumption of step I tried to make a case that I have two steps on the first pass with success (Completed) and the second with failure (FAILED), but when I made the second execution of job he relaunched the first step even if it has happened in the first execution

thank you in advance

There could be two causes of this scenario:

1) You have 'allowStartIfComplete' set to true, in which case starting the first step again is expected behaviour.

2) You have used different JobParameters between the two runs, so it sees them as separate job instances and starts from the beginning. If you want to restart an instance, make sure the parameters are exactly the same between the two runs.

it seem that i am in the second case

but if i use the same parametre i get this error :

16:50:01,457 ERROR DefaultQuartzScheduler_Worker-2 JobLauncherDetails:77 - Could not execute job.
org.springframework.batch.core.repository.JobInstanceAlreadyCompleteException: A job instance already exists and is complete for parameters={dateJ=2008-05-19 09:01:51}{}{}{}.  If you want to run this job again, change the parameters.

there is no solution for this ????

It would appear that your first run was successful, which is the only case in which that exception will be thrown. Perhaps you didn't clear the meta-data before running it with those parameters?
