Julio -
Turned out you were right about my TrFile_ExecuteShell problem - I
misread your reply. I thought you were saying to use the full path of
the *movie* file, but I think you were saying the full path to the
mediainfo utility file. *That* worked - I wish I would have paid
better attention in the first place! Thanks for trying to help me!
All -
I have another issue I'm trying to resolve, maybe someone has an idea:
Running Troi File v. 4.6.2, FMPA10, FMSA10, on a PowerPC G5, with Mac
OS X Server v10.5.6. I've got a developers license as well as a
server-side license for TroiFile
I'm using TrFile_CreateFolder to create a folder on a mounted volume
(remote drive on the LAN). When I run the script from FileMaker Pro,
it creates the folder successfully. But when I schedule the script on
the server side, it returns a $$-43, i.e., File not found. When I try
to create a folder on the local drive, it runs successfully from Server.
I suspect it's a permissions problem. When I run it from Pro, I'm
logged into an account with write privileges to the remote volume.
And I can give fmserver write privileges to the local volume, and it
runs properly. But I don't know how to give the fmserver user account
write privileges on a separate computer? I've also tried allowing
"everyone" write access to the remote volume but it still doesn't work
from Server.
For laughs, I tried unmounting and mounting the remote volume, so that
I can mount it with an admin account. Mounting the volume completes
successfully from Server, but I still get the same error when trying
to create the folder. I've also tried referencing the mounted volume
using afp, but I get the same result, and I'm unsure of the proper
syntax re: colons vs. forward slashes.
Is there another way to reference a remote volume using Troi File
through which I can pass admin account credentials? Or can I create
an fmserver account on the other computer so that Server is allowed to
write to that volume? Or am I barking up the wrong tree?
TIA,
Katherine
