Cannot get the correct path to unmanaged disk 1

[eo]

Hi

I am trying to set a destination for a report to a location (unmanaged disk) on the same location as which CE10 runs from (i.e. on the same server), but it keeps on telling me location error, or invalid argument.

The path I choose is \\Crystal\Reports\File
I realise this path makes no sense to you, but maybe you can see something obviously wrong.

The first thing I would look at is if the account the Page Server is running under has permissions to access that folder. You can test this by loggin on as that account and then pasting the path into the <Start> <Run> command and see if it opens the folder.

If the Page Server is running under the system account, I would change it to an account that has Admin rights on the local machine.

I am also suspicious of Crystal "slash" Reports. Do you really want CrystalReports or Crystal "underscore" Reports. But what I am really thinking is that you want an OS path, like D:\... And I seem to remember that unmanaged disk requires a local disk; remote paths are not supported. I could be wrong, though, and any testing I'd have done would have been on CE9 a good year ago.
