Hi all,
Just a quick one. I have migrated from 4 to 5 beta (clean install) and the main issue is that I can add files to the database from my windows server (domain network here, server 2016) and it uses the mapped drive perfectly. I can then shut don MM5 and the next time I fire up it has lost the path, even though it still shows the mapped drive in the list of drives in the tree.
Now, If I disconnect the VPN on the TAP/TUN before opening MM5 it all works flawlessly but if I have the VPN running it will not find the path. Before everyone says use the unc path, the network only shows the local machine in the tree if the vpn is active which by preference is 24/7 and it cannot find other machines. As I say, if the vpn is not connected before I start the program everything is fine.
This was never an issue on version 4 so I am wondering what has changed in the network side of the software.
Side issue... why is MM5 still showing as 32 bit not 64?
