hello out there

i have a problem with serverbased profiles.

when i want to install robohelp 7 he interupts with an error like: i could not install, because there is a wrong character in the path of the Documents. ??? the problem seems to be the serverbased profile os the server bases home directory ! we have \\SID\HOME$\PCS-NID\Documents . this is a path to a server bases home directory. i think the " $ " character is the problem !!! does anyone has installed robohelb on a environment with serverbased home dir´s ? is there any workarounf available ?

    Welcome to the forum

    You cannot install RH to a server.

    1] It is a breach of the licence.

    2] It is designed to work only on a client PC.

    Resistance is futile. :-)

    Sorry but RH must be installed on the user's PC.

    yes, i know that rh7 only works on a client.

    but i doesnot want to install the rh7 on a server. the komplete installation will be on the
    client, only the "Documents" folder is on the server, therefore the installation doesnot
    work. but why ? the rest of the complete installation is on the client !

    PLEASE HELP !!!

    THANKS, alex

    Sorry but I am not clear on what you are trying to do. OK you are installing RH to a client PC and normally once that starts, it completes without any further prompting.

    Are you saying that the user profile is on a server rather than being on the C drive? If you are, I am not sure whether or how you can work around that. I think that question is one you would probably need to go to support to ask.
