Hi All,

I just upgraded from 0.4.12 to 0.5.0Beta6 and the first thing I noticed was an error in the log stating: ERROR: Cannot create directory Z:\Sab

I have a network share and have always used Z:\Sab as my directory without any problems.

If I try to change the directory in the settings (Completed Download Folder) I get this error:

Incorrect parameter

Cannot create complete_dir folder Z:\Sab

I thought this might be a permissions problem (I run Windows 7) So I checked "Run as administrator" but that did not help.  I double checked that Z:\Sab was actually reachable which it was. I also tried Z:/Sab which didn't work either.

Has anyone else run into this?

Thanks!

Edit:
For the record I also tried various different cases such as z:\sab, and z:\Sab but none of them worked.

Very strange.
Please try the full UNC path instead (like \\server\share ).

On what kind of device is the share?

Hi shypike,

Thanks for your help!

I tried the UNC path and it worked perfectly. I am using a Netgear Readynas NV+. I've always had Z:\ pathed to it and nothing changed on that front so I am not sure why there are problems there. I'm just glad its working with the UNC path.

I have no idea about the cause.
I can still use drive letters mounted on my Windows server.
