Getting error message: An error occurred storing the file

Post by lchee » Wed Feb 24, 2010 10:15 pm

SOS 5.0.1
Visual Studio 2005
Windows 2008 on both the client/server

When I click on some folders in the explorer tree on the left, or when I try to get the latest code, I'm getting an error message that reads...

******************
An error occurred storing the file -
C:\Users\xwei\AppData\Local\SourceGear\SourceOffSite\servers\071006070148\DB1\N\N42+VD2?8Y7.
C:\Users\xwei\AppData\Local\SourceGear\SourceOffSite\servers\071006070148\DB1\N\N42+VD2?8Y7 contains an incorrect path.
******************

I can see that the '?' should be a '.' from looking at the other database files, but how do I prevent this incorrect '?' usage? Since '?' is not permitted in a Windows file name, it seems like this is causing a problem for SOS.

This is preventing me from using SOS to get the latest files or to view the files on VSS. Can someone please help?

Thanks,
Lek

In case anyone comes across this, this was addressed in SOS 5.0.2 as well as SOS 5.0.3. See SourceOffSite 5 OS without 8-bit character support for additional information.
