Hi Andrew,

However, when there's a problem with the $HOME-variable,
Ronald might know how to handle this?
As your environment variable "HOME" is set to "d:/home" and this folder
does exist your problem may arise due to restricted access rights to
this folder.
When the above environment variable is set, Enigma will use this folder
and needs the ability to create subfolders and to store files.
If the problem remains you can still experiment to start Enigma without
this variable being set. This would cause the Enigma to store the files
and folders at the operating system default location.
Greets,
Ronald
Best greets,

I get an error (Error Home directory does not exist.) when starting
Enigma
version 1.01 and 1.00. When I ran it in version 0.92 it worked fine.
- What operating system are you using?
- Windows XP
- Which Enigma version are you using?
- 1.01 and 1.00 fail, 0.92 works
- What did you do when the bug happened?
- I started Enigma (both from the shortcut on the start menu and
from
the enigma.exe in the program folder)
- What exactly did you see then?
- An enigma process started (shown in the Task Manager), then
vanished, and a file (stderr.txt) showed up in the program
folder. The
contents of that file were: Error Home directory does not exist.
- Is the problem ongoing or reproduceable?
- Yes, both.
I've looked for a preferences folder in my c:/documents and
settings/username/application data/enigma folder, but that folder is not
created. I do have an environment variable set (HOME) and have found a
preferences folder where that points (d:/home). It seems likely that
part of
the enigma exe is not referencing the HOME environment variable, and
part of
it is.
Thanks
Andrew
