Source Path from network share installs 0 KB files

Hi,
I'm new to InstallAware and I'm running into an issue evaluating the product. I have created a simple product where my source path has been defined to pull files from a network share (mapped drive). After compiling a single file installation I have installed to my test pc and all of the files deployed have a file size = 0.
I then took the same build folder (files to be installed) and moved them to the local c:\ drive. I updated the "Source Path" location to point locally and re-compiled the installer. After installing this build on my test pc the file size is now correct.
In the past we have used Wise for Windows installer and always staged our builds on a central network drive. The build folder and release files are located on the same network share. Is there a problem with this configuration or am I just doing something wrong?
Thank you for your help,
Trevor
