CAM postProcess "Initialization fails"

[lorraine5RWGT]

Getting an "initialization fails" error when using `cam.postProcessAll` or `cam.postProcess`.  Can anyone shed some light why?  Post process works when clicking through UI.

        programName = '1001'
        postConfiguration = os.path.join(cam.genericPostFolder, 'mach3mill.cps')
        outputFolder = 'C:/Users/lorraine/AppData/Local/Fusion 360 CAM/nc'
        outputUnits = adsk.cam.PostOutputUnitOptions.MillimetersOutput

        postInput = adsk.cam.PostProcessInput.create(programName, postConfiguration, outputFolder, outputUnits)

        post_success = cam.postProcessAll(postProcessInput)  # Produces error

Failed:
Traceback (most recent call last):
    [...]
    post_success = cam.postProcessAll(postInput)

Are you trying to post process it through some scripts or API?

If so then its missing the cam.postProcess() requires two things one is inputs and other is the setup details you want to post 

here is the sample api program

Hi,  thanks for the reply.

It happens both when I use cam_var.postProcessAll with 1 arg (postProcessInput) and when I use cam_var.postProcess with 2 args (operation, postProcessInput)

Could you attach the script?
