Hi all,
This is indeed a new issue that came from some changes we made on how the robot (service) is handling files that are needed when Studio or UiRobot.exe -f cmd runs a flow.
Until now, the files were accessed by Studio (the user), but now they are accessed directly by the service (Local System).
Since only the user has share drive access, opening the project in Studio will work (as is done by the user) but the running part that is done through the robot (local system) won’t.
We have logged it and we are currently searching for a solution.
In the meantime, you can use the following temporary workaround (if this is allowed by your IT department):
You can give access rights to your MACHINE to the share like so:
- Right click on share folder > Properties
- Go to Security tab
- Click EDIT
- Click ADD
- Click on Object Types select Computers and then click OK
- Add your computer name in the "Enter the object names to select … " and then click Check names
- Click OK.
If everything is ok, it should look like this and running a project from Studio should now work :
For mapped drives, the situation is a little bit more complicated than this.
Beside the steps described above, you need to map your shared folder to a letter FOR THE SYSTEM ACCOUNT like so :
Hope this helps,
-Andrei
