Find directory doesn't work with UNC paths

Post by EpicorRelease »

With InstallAware X2 Studio the "Does File/Folder Exist" feature appears to be broken.

I have a script written in 2012 Studio that detects a UNC folder, and then if it doesn't exist creates a network share.

When run in InstallAware X2 studio, the same script returns a true value whether the folder path does or does not exist.

Is there a patch I can apply to remedy this problem?
Thanks

Dear User,

just tested ... but I am not able to replicate the same.
For what I see the "Does Folder Exist" command correctly returns the existence of UNC folder and only, if the same effectively exists.

If you can post a very minimal project that replicates the issue, I'll be happy to verify it.
