I'm running into an issue when I try to write a report to a folde ron my network. I've been working with the network guy and my permissions are fine, yet I keep getting an access denied error. One thing I do notice though, is the path I am trying to write to is:
\\IPADDRESS\FTPServer\HOSPITAL\INBOUND\

However, when I save it in Enterprise, it changes my path to:

//IPADDRESS/FTPServer/HOSPITAL/INBOUND/

From the run prompt on the server, I can get to the first location, not the second. Any idea why Crystal is changing my path on me?
 
Hi,
That should not matter - I think that since BOE is web-based, it uses URL-style symbols ( / instead of \ )- Is this a scheduled or on-demand report from Enterprise? - be sure both the Report and Reportjob servers are running under an account that has full rights to that folder. ( you are not trying to FTP it are you?- just asking since the dest is an FTP server)

I'm just putting it to a folder with ftp in the name. The server this report is running on (scheduled) has full rights to the server it's writing to. I can get to it without a problem from the server when I manually go in and try to write to the folder.
 
Hi,
Not the Server, the BOE services called Jobserver and Reportserver ( may be called reportJobServer) - look in the CCM and see what accounts are listed for those services...

Just to add a little info:

The default account is "Local Services", which does not have access to network folders because it is a local machine account, not a network accout.
