Hello @RolandChalfounEstreme-1353,
Welcome to the Microsoft Q&A platform, and thanks for posting your query.
Please correct me if my understanding is wrong. You are trying to copy files from on-prem to some destination and getting the error on a specific file.
Could you please provide me below details?
Does this file structure is same as the other successfully copied files?
Does this file reside in the same folder as other successfully copied files?
Are you using filesystem linked service? (For the source)
Are you using self-hosted IR?
What is your destination dataset?
I initially thought there could be some issue with { } in the file name and tried to reproduce it with file name ‘xxxxx_CHECKPOINT.SHIPPING.8013276584.20220503133406.DAT-ASXML-{3A3844FA-CFEA-498B-8F87-D29EC62706D3}.xml'
And I was able to copy the file from on-prem to Azure blob storage.
I am looking forward to hearing from you.
Hello @RolandChalfounEstreme-1353,

Hello
Thanks for the reply,
I'm copying a file from 1 server to another
i am using filesystem linked service? (For the source)
i am using a self-hosted IR?
The destination is also a file system linked service.
For some reason i'm getting errors.

We are facing the same issue on our production environment. It is a simple file copy activity. We have tried restarting the self hosted IR. It works fine for sometime and then the issue starts again after a day or so.
Hello @Tech2938-1353 and @Anonymous ,
It seems like the issue is with column mappings. Can you clear the mapped columns and manually import the schema and then preview the data? if you can able to preview the data, most likely you won't see an issue with the pipeline run.
In case this doesn't resolve your issue, for deeper investigation and immediate assistance, If you have a support plan you may file a support ticket, else please let me know. I can enable one-time free support for you to work closely on this matter.
Hello @Tech2938-1353 ,
I am just checking in to see if you have any updates here.
@Bhargava-MSFT - there are no mappings on my pipelines. I have several of these simple file copy pipelines and each of them has multiple copy activities. These are scheduled to run hourly. They work fine most of the times but throw this error on occasion and sometimes continue to fail until the Self hosted IR is restarted.
As this is still continuing to happen, we are planning to open a support ticket with Microsoft. But if you found a solution, please share. Thank you for trying to help!
Hello @Anonymous ,
Sorry for the inconvenience. The best approach is to file a support ticket, and a support engineer can take a deeper look into the logs to troubleshoot the issue further.
Please let us know if you have any further questions here.
@Bhargava-MSFT , @Tech2938-1353
If this helps anyone...
The Microsoft Support Engineer suggested that we enable retry in the Copy Activity. It's been a week since we implemented that and so far the pipelines have not failed.
Hi @Anonymous ,
Thank you so much for the update.
