IOR files not being created in shared folder

Hi Experts,

When ever I run the Indesign server as a service and the Ior folder is pointing to the local drive e.g. c:\IDS\ior then the ior files are created. But when I point by IOR folder to the shared drive e.g. \\\\st-con-02\\fm2appsdev\\IDS1\\IOR1  none of the ior files are created. Please find my command line arguments below :

-pluginpath Server/Corba -iorfile \\\\st-con-02\\fm2appsdev\\IDS1\\IOR1 -port 12349

Could anyone please help.

Thanks,

Manjunath

Manjunath,

Is the service running under a windows account that has privileges to read/write files in the shared directory?

John,

I had created the directory in the shared drive through Filezilla and gave read, write and execute permissions to everyone including user and other members in the group and all . Also I have been able to create a file in that shared folder by loggng in to the windows machine using the same username and id

Please let me know if there a fool proof test to know if the user id doesn't have permissions to create a file there

Thanks,

Manjunath

Manjunath:

I don't think you need to double-up the backslashes in the directory path.  Try it with just \\st-con-02\fm2appsdev\IDS1\IOR1.

You can check the Application Event Logs for a more specific error message, it that doesn't take care of the problem.
