Problem with ista-launcher - harry015 - 26-11-2018
Hi,
i have a laptop and a desktop. The database for update is on the desktop, g:\. Rheingold (standalone) ist installed on laptop, drive c:\.
To update the data's/sdp's i started ista-launcher from laptop, it works fine. But now i had to reinstall w10... now it wont work...
I get the error "package install directory does not exist", look at the screenshot. But i have access to the location, see the second screenshot....
If i put the database-folder on the laptop, drive d:\ (and change the registry-entry, it works). But why didnt it work over the network?
The other way, database on laptop, and update on desktop works....
Firewall/Virus is windows-defender, tried all turn of, same result...
Could anybody help me?
regards,
harry

G: is a Networkdrive, or?
Try direct \\server_ip\ISTA_Store
In Regfile "\\\\server_ip\\ISTA_Store"

Hi,
yes, g: is a drive on the desktop. but where i have to write the drive-letter?
Before formatting and installing w10 new it was working... The other way works (database on laptop, update the desktop...)

Then don't you need to edit the files inside the ISTALauncher?
To the Address of the folder on the network example G:/Temp/ISTA_Store/Downloads
Also, you can MAP that device on the Network to Windows on your current computer so it takes over a new letter, for instance, you could make it A
Then edit the reg file
and edit the istalauncher-x64 A:\\Temp\\ISTA_Store
I think that might be the best idea for you.

i have done this. Look at the screenshot. But istalauncher write: install directory does not exist. when i open cmd, i get access to this path. curious!

i have tried this, too. Letter g, p, t. same result. istalauncher get no access, cmd get access.
I tried to make a hard link as well, (mklink ...), same result, istalauncher get no access, cmd get access.
The way back, (base-files stored in laptop, drive-letter d:\ista_store\downloads), the access from the computer to the laptop works with istalauncher....
