Do you know if the 255 limit is python limit ? Where does it come from ? any idea how to sort it out without changing the pathfilename to a shorter version(actually the generated filename could be changed to something shorter but i don t know where it is generated )? M BTW , i use 1.79.2
I guess this is under Windows Vista or 7, judging by the start of the pathname. I notice there is a forward slash between "Library" and "databases" - perhaps this is confusing the operating system? Everywhere else in the path are double backslashes. There is also a ".." between "databases" and "uploads" - seems a bit suspicious (although it should just refer to the parent directory). Rowdy
