    Hi guys

    We are migrating a RAS server to a new box & everything seems fine.

    However when we try to start a published application, we get a dialog box saying
    Failed to launch application Z:\......\..xxx.exe on server xxxxx. The system cannot find the file specified. Also the Verify Target cannot find the application.

    The application lives on a drive mapped from a folder on the main data disk. This still happens evern when starting the app as an admin from the client with full admin priviledges. A DOS CMD box can see the file.

    However when we change the drive letter of the published application to to D:\......\..xxx.exe ie the data drive itself - all works fine.

    We assumed thais was a permissions issue but even giving EVERYONE full access - the problem persists.

    Any ideas?

    Thanks in advance

    Removed all published applications & started agin.

    Now it seems to work - must have been a corrupt entry.

    Happy Happy !!
