Problem: Single file uploaded to Appian. Two files appear in the relevant accdocs. Only one of the files can be deleted by process. All files must be removed.

I have a very simple model which uses the upload document element within the initial form. I then record the physical path to the document. After which I delete the document. Checking back in the relevant accdocs folder there appears to be an additional copy of the document intially uploaded in the attended task. Aside from the the function being used to record the physical url of the document in the KC, all other components of the model are default.

Is this a bug? Or something resolved in a higher version of Appian?

Thanks,
James...

It is definitely the file upload module in the form. I have watched the local file system as I have executed the process. Before the form is submitted a new file is generated. After the form is submitted another new file is created. When the singular document pv is passed to the delete node the 2nd file is deleted from the relevant accdoc folder. The first file remains.
I can say for sure that the expression used in the script task has no influence what so ever.
