Multiple File Bags go to same temp folder???

I was under the impression that each File Bag, with a separate location returned, would be a separate namespace (i.e., a separate temp folder).

That doesn't appear to be true, can someone confirm? :cry:

(Several file bags are stepping on each other with files of the same names).

Thanks, Jon

Try using seperate web media blocks for each of the file bags, and/or bag using top-level folders having unique names, to work around this issue.

It was easy enough to work around using separate subfolders for the namespaces once I found the problem! Some comment about this in the File Bag help section might have saved me a lot of time (if I read it all first!).

I haven't used web media blocks, (other than the default) though, since this is a single "exe" delivered installer to non-internet connected machines; I hadn't thought of that.

Thanks, Jon

Oh, with non-web builds, the other idea would not work anyways.
