The scheduler cannot create my reports. I get the message: Copying report: cannot create folder G:\Team Members Folders\Allan\WebLog Expert Reports\HTML Reports\

Yet when I click on the analysis button, it works fine. Please can you help?

If the report is to be created on a network drive, you need to enter your account name and password in the schedule options. When the scheduler runs as a system service it works under local service account and cannot access network without this authorization information. You also need to use full network (UNC) path, mapped drives cannot work without manual mapping in this case.

Hi Michael,

Thanks for your help but I am still getting the error. I've added my network username and password but it hasn't helped. Any other thoughts on what might be causeing this and how to fix it?

Thanks

Have you changed the output path to use a full network (UNC) path instead of using mapped drive?
