windows file access - can read but write appears to use wrong path

Hi, I have a strange issue configuring file access. I have a role that works fine for listing files and downloading them. It is configured as a windows bookmark in the format


Server /share: \\server\share

Path : <USER>


If you try and upload a file or create a new directory all fails. On the webpage the error is "Error FB-1 Access Denied"


and on the User Log: Cannot write Windows file test.txt to \\servername\<user> with error 13.


So what is strange is that it is happy to read from the correct full path but writes appear to miss out the share name (they only have the server and path).


Any ideas?

Server /share:<USER

Re: windows file access - can read but write appears to use wrong path

a policy trace/tcp cump should have some info. what is the sa version.

assuming user's login credentials has write privileges to the share, is this a distributed file system.. try using ip address

are there any log messages printed to the file share servers log?
