Cannot share database from server

[kieferschild]

Hi Guys,

I updated ACT from v17 to v18 on our server successfully. However, the database became unshared.

When I try and share it, it tells me the path is not legal.

I've tried to move it with the wizard but I get an error saying I dont have windows permissions when I do.

I'm really struggling here and need help.

thanks

Fixed this issue.

sharing the <databasebame>-database files folder allowed me to share the database.

Ok so i logged in with the Administrator account and managed to move the data to

C:\Users\[Windows user]\Documents\ACT\ACT Data\Databases

as per the KB article but when i try and share it I still get "There was a problem sharing/unsharing your ACT! database. the path is not of a legal form."
