Can't open Griffith

[alderschwede]

Hi,

when I open griffith.exe nothing happens.
I think this is because the profile is on a server with an unc-path

This is the content of the griffith.exe.log:

Traceback (most recent call last):

Hello,

how about that error?

Is it my fault? Is it a bug?

Is it my fault? Is it a bug?

I'll try to reproduce it as soon as I will have any Windows around, is it working if your profile is on local server?

[alderschwede]

is it working if your profile is on local server?

I can not try this on that computer. I have no rights to change this setting. Sorry

Is your profile named "as", do you have My documents folder inside?

[alderschwede]

Yes, it's named "as".

But the folder My Documents does not exist. It is a german windows. so this folder is called "Eigene Dateien". And this folder exists.

But the folder My Documents does not exist. It is a german windows. so this folder is called "Eigene Dateien". And this folder exists.

The problem is that Griffith tries to save config file in '\\orion\user\as' which is a directory. It should take My documents location from env. variable and create a "griffith" directory there...

Hi,

Isn't it the problem that Griffith tries to access this path

\\\\orion\\user\\as

instead of this

\\orion\\user\\as

?

if I cant help you by testing some things, please tell me and I will do so if I have the rights on this machine.

IMO - no,  they're just escape marks ('\' has special meaning in python)
