Hi Florent, Your drive mapping will be configured for _you_, when you are logged on, but not necessarily for all other users of the system. MarkLogic will be running as a Windows service, and probably configured to use the default “Local System” account, which has no access to any of your drive mappings. Theoretically you could set MarkLogic up to run as a named service account, allocate that account “Log on locally” permissions, then log into Windows as that account and set up the drive mapping as a persistent mapping. I can’t see any guidelines on what other permissions would need to be allocated to that service account though, and you’d need to make sure you gave it all the relevant permissions, such as to all the file locations, otherwise MarkLogic won’t work. Unless you can find some detailed instructions on what you’d need to set I think that would be too risky, and I think you’d do far better just accessing the UNC path directly rather than the drive letter – although you’ll also need to make sure that the Active Directory Computer Account (used by Local System ) is given permissions to access the share.

There is a mapping for the drive letter P to the network dir "\\server\profiles\ME<file:///\\server\profiles\ME>". I can use "P:" in the file explorer. The following SJS properly returns C:/ content: "use strict"; xdmp.filesystemDirectory('c:/') But if I change c:/ by p:/, MarkLogic says it cannot find the path. On ML 9.2. From QConsole. The drive P: is accessible from all apps, including Cygwin for instance. Any idea what's wrong? Any chance it is on ML side?
