Adobe DW CC 2018 issue saving SCSS to NAS drive

Issue only applies to SCSS files.

When I open and edit an SCSS file that is located on NAS drive, when I click save, an error message notifies me that 'access to (filename) denied', and does not save the file or update the associated CSS file (automatic compilation turned on).

To test, I save the same SCSS file to desktop - it saves without issue and updates the associated CSS file on desktop.

When automatic compilation of SCSS to CSS is turned off, the SCSS file will save. Manual compile does not work in this instance.

It appears to be an issue with CC saving to an external drive, is this a known issue and is there a fix available?

Hi,

There seems to be an issue with file permissions.

Please check if you  have Write permission to the SCSS file and the parent folder as once the file is saved in DW, it will write the changes to the SCSS file and then writes the generated CSS file.

Are you able to modify the SCSS file using any other editor on the system?

I am able to get to the access denied error dialog by just removing Write permission to SCSS file.

Because there are no answers forthcoming, it may be an idea to let Preran know (which I have now done).

Wappler is the DMXzone-made Dreamweaver replacement and includes the best of their powerful extensions, as well as much more!
