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

there are some fairly hideous issues with mapped drives and unc paths. Xsi
still, occasionally, seems hell bent on reverting unc paths back to drive
maps if it catches the slightest wiff of a mapped drive. best to stick with
either one or the other. It's the mixing that causes the problems.

I've encountered the same problem Kim had though I don't remember if it was
in jscript as well. I ended up unmounting the drive letter that held the
workgroup and configuring XSI to use the UNC path for the workgroup instead.
Haven't encountered the problem since seemed to cause some sort of internal
conflict if the workgroup path existed on a drive letter as XSI would oft
default back to the UNC paths. We've seen this ALOT in regards to scene
files and their paths as well.

Hi Kim,



That seem very similar, as the first line of the error said it could

not find the plug-in file.



Thanks for that info, I think I'll investigate the Linktab file.
