Experience optimization - Fredhopper Cannot run kettle job

Question

I am having the same issue mentioned in the link, I thought I will ask a sperate question as this is again happening with other versions while installing with Experience Optimization.

Initially I have tried with all below fredhopper versions with Web 8.5.

fredhopper-7.5.2.10
fredhopper-7.5-revision-15
fredhopper-7.5-revision-19

I can see that the xml is getting copied to /data/fas-xml-incremental folder but it is not getting indexed, am I missing something?

I can see below error in kitchen.log

data\instances\deployment\log\kitchen.log:ERROR 21-03 14:36:48,866 - Start Busi

Looks like it has problems loading the STJob.kjb file. Could you make sure you've copied in the right one from the installation files? — Peter Kjaer, Commented Mar 21, 2017 at 15:13
I did so, I copied it from SDL Web 8.5\Experience Optimization\Content Delivery\roles\fredhopper\extensions is there any specific fredhopper version that supports? — Rafeeq, Commented Mar 21, 2017 at 17:12
No, any 7.5 version will work. Perhaps there are some file system permissions missing so it cannot read it? — Peter Kjaer, Commented Mar 22, 2017 at 8:15
I tried giving full permission to everyone for fredhopper folder :( , has it been any time success at first or second shot?? — Rafeeq, Commented Mar 22, 2017 at 13:56
I don't understand what you just asked. Could you add the content of your STJob.kjb file to the question? — Peter Kjaer, Commented Mar 23, 2017 at 6:20

Have been struggling with the same problem during last week and I think the answer to this question is on this previous issue.

It seems to be a problem with the SDLWeb 8.5 smarttarget_api_extension.jar file with some dependent classes.

As @PeterKjaer coments, the extension hasn't changed, a safe workaround would be to use the 2014 SP1 version of smarttarget_api_extension.jar.

I have put the old jar in my custom folder of the instances, and restart them, and the kettle job STJob.kjb is now working, and indexing the components published to fredhopper.

That particular problem was fixed in 8.2.

You mean 8.2 version of fredhopper? but this version is not supported by SDL Web
– Raúl Escudero
Commented Apr 20, 2017 at 9:50
No, I mean the smarttarget_api_extension.jar issue was fixed in SDL Web 8.2 (a cloud-only release) - and therefore also in 8.5. So I think you had a different issue, or you didn't have the 8.5 version of that JAR file.
