Event Monitoring not changing from 'submitted'

Hi, This is a multi part question

Scenario:

I have setup a directory monitor that checks a UNC path. I am connected to that path and the AETL services are running. I push a test file into the UNC path which is masked for "*.*". A new entry in the execution log for the event is appears with a status of Submitted. The monitor is calling a Package and then a transformation. Each of which I have tested in isolation.

1. The process is triggered as the file is created. But it never moves from a submitted status. Why?

2. The first stage of the package is to create some package variables and to build a temporary staging folder on a local C:\ path. This folder never gets created. So I am assuming that the package does not get executed as all of this works when evoked manually. Any ideas?

3. Is there any way of forcing log entries or debug the event monitor? I can't find any entries in existing logs. The event monitor is firing when the file arrives as the execution log shows this. But it never seems to call the underlying package.

Thanks

Hi Bruce

The event monitor does not execute any actions it only adds them to the execution queue.
Execution agent picks them up and executes.
You have to configure execution agent service to make it work

Thanks for the link. I will double check it is running. I am sure it is. But the link pointed me to another likely candidate being the licence as I am
working from a mobile device whilst away from office and I suspect it is using my previous eval license.
