Workstation not included

Posted on by 75,730

Here is a new one. Client went to apply the 18.1.1137 service pack. After launching GP they received this message.

Has anyone ever seen this message before? Not even launching as Admin and clicking Yes had any effect.

    Hi Richard

    I can replicate this message by changing the Workstation2 setting in the Dex.ini to a value that does not exist in the Dynamics.set launch file.

    Someone has changed Workstation2=\\gp\GPShares\Data

    I recommend changing these settings in your Dex.ini

    Workstation2=Windows

    FormDictionaryPath=\\gp\GPShares\Data\

    ReportDictionaryPath=\\gp\GPShares\Data\

    Regards


    David

    Let me check on the roaming profiles. The IT director has left and I have seen the strangest things at this site.

    Not a message I've seen much if at all....... my thoughts are it is looking for the Dex.ini file and not finding it or maybe a forms/reports dictionary file?

    Does the Dynamics.set file have this path in it for any of the dictionary files?

    Also, make sure they're not using roaming profiles where each user has their own copy of the Dex.ini and Dynamics.set, instead of using these files that are in the actual GP directory where it is installed.

    Thanks
