[Tilesathome] Tilesathome Digest, Vol 15, Issue 30

[Philip Shipley]

I think I have figured out what is happening (bearing in mind that I never
read a perl script before a few days ago and I am not a programmer, so be
indulgent!):

In tilesgen.pl at around line 1565 it calls
>(undef, $stdOut) = tempfile("$PID-XXXXXX", DIR => $Config->get(
"WorkingDirectory"), SUFFIX => ".stdout", OPEN => 0);


and we eventually end up in temp.pm around line 444

>unless (-w $parent) {
>                ${$options{ErrStr}} = "Parent directory ($parent) is not
writable\n";
>                return ();

At this point it has created a directory (c:\tahtemp\<$PID>),  this test
fails and kaboom.

Interestingly if I set "WorkingDirectory" in tilesAtHome.conf to
"c:\tilesathome\temp" instead of "c:\tahtemp" it works just fine.  Although
both directories appear to have the same settings.

When I examine the $PID-directories in Windows Explorer they are set to
read-only with both settings of WorkingDirectory......

I am running Vista and tried running tilesgen.pl as administrator to no
avail.

So I have figured out how to work around the problem, don't set the
workingdirectory immediately off the root.  Don't ask me why....

Phil



No the directoryhad lots of space.
