GOAL:

How to verify the correct Propath is being searched when a file is being accessed.

FACT(s) (Environment):

WebSpeed 3.x
Progress 9.x
Windows 32 Intel
Windows NT 32 Intel/Windows 2000

FIX:

The following are ways to make sure that the Propath setting is correct:

In WebSpeed -- In order to determine the setting of PROPATH in a WebSpeed environment, use the WebSpeed Workshop to display the WebSpeed Agent's PROPATH. NOTE: WSCONFIG cannot be used to interpret the PROPATH values at this environment level setting.

AppServer -- Use the 4GL statement, MESSAGE PROPATH, to view the AppServer's PROPATH.

Other possible scenarios that might contribute to an incorrect search of the Propath are:

1) Network Directories -- If the directories where the files to be accessed reside are on the network, as opposed to the local PC, Progress cannot see them unless it is started up by a user with network rights. The usual way to do this is to edit the service startup parameters for the AdminServer so that it gets started by an appropriate user.

2) Permissions -- When the PROPATH is setup and it has a directory on it that the user doesn't have read permissions to, Progress will not search beyond the directory that has the permissions problem.
