fdv Posted March 26, 2008 Share Posted March 26, 2008 Hey folks,I keep all of my HFSLIP info in one master folder.I sometimes want to make an IE6 configuration, sometimes FDVFILESET, sometimes I want to have no DirectX9 for testing purposes, etc etc etc etc etc etc.Anyway, if I want no DirectX, I rename HFCABS to HFCABS-NO and create a new empty HFCABS.If I want to test just ONE hotfix, I rename HF to HF-NO and make a new HF with just the one file.I just ran HFSLIP and I got all sorts of bizarre problems. It tried to make SOURCESS a file, not a directory. It said it could not access files it parses like TXTSETUP (obviously) because somehow it made SOURCESS a blank, zero byte file.This used to work fine before I started renaming my folders. I just ran again after actually moving these 'do not use' folders... So I answered my own question. I guess the key here is that if you want to run different configs from time to time, you need to proeceed the folder with a lot of XXXXX's.

Tomcat76 Posted March 27, 2008 Share Posted March 27, 2008 I'm also renaming folders during tests but have never experienced that.Do you mind using the new test release (80327a) and trying to duplicate the problem again? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
