Python plug-in raising erros heck knows why - SOLVED, but...

Ok after messing around with workgroup and user paths, I found the
problem was that I was using UNC paths for both my workgroup and user
paths. Setting them to use the mounted drive path solved the isse.

Now, I still don't get what happened here. Why would a UNC path for
plugins cause troubles while a mounted drive path would not?


Thanks
Bernard
