The problem:

A single WinXP workstation in an environment of 10+ XP machines cannot render. The Job submits successfully, but almost immediately fails, generating the following error:

ERROR: can't create log: //FILE/path/name: No such file or directory


    If you manually login to this machine as the user the Rushd
    service is running as, and try to create a file in that directory,
    do you get similar errors? eg:

        dir \\FILE\path\name
        echo foo > \\file\path\name\test.txt

> A single WinXP workstation in an environment of 10+ XP machines cannot render.

    A few things come to mind:

        o Verify the Rushd service is running as a user that has access
          to the file server. eg. a valid account similar to the other
          machines, and not using the 'System' account.

        o Make sure it isn't a file server issue, eg. a
          Windows file server that ran out of Microsoft CAL licenses.

    Sure sounds like one of the above.

    I imagine you should be able to replicate the problem from DOS
    assuming you login as the user the Rushd service is configured
    to run as.


Not sure what cleared this problem up but my suspicion is that the artist has assigned an incorrect path to the imagedir. Why this caused the cannot create log file error is beyond me. Any thoughts anyone?
