Sometimes URL don't connect but IP works fine

[mrbosco]

I believe it did in Windows Explorer but that only happens very rarely.
Most of the time windows explorer can access the network drive either with the IP or URL w/o password prompt.

1) I meant in XYplorer, does the IP path pop a logon prompt in XYplorer?

2) Please run this script through the XYplorer address bar and post the result or just tell: is the unavailable server listed in the result?

Code: Select all

text runret("net view");

The IP path works w/o prompting for a P (although it might be because the PW was entered in Windows Explorer)

OK, that helped. Might be fixed in next beta.

[mrbosco]

Thank you!

Happy to test out a beta if you'd like,

[admin]

You can test the beta now.

Sorry to tell you the problem still exists.

[admin]

Right after you get "Location currently not available" run this script, please...

Code: Select all

text runret("net view");

... and post a screenshot of the return window that pops up.

When you run this script (replace [yourpath] with your path), what is returned?

Code: Select all

exist "[yourpath]";

[mrbosco]

Exist
H:\0 ClipArt\(\Seagate-437403\Public\Videos\TV A-B)

According to XYplorer 20.30.0009 on 2019-08-28 08:34:17,
does "H:\0 ClipArt\(\Seagate-437403\Public\Videos\TV A-B)" really exist?

ExistFile: False
ExistPath: False
ExistFolder: False
ExistItemFF: False
ExistPathFF: False
ExistPathOrFile: False
ExistPathOrFileShell: False
ExistIcon: False
IsNetworkLocation: False
GetDriveType: 3 (DRIVE_FIXED)
GetItemType: 10
GetFileAttributes: 0xFFFFFFFF (-1)

Watchable: True

When I execute Exist "(yourpath)" it's prefixing it with the path I'm in at the time.

My path is \Seagate-437403\Public\Videos\TV A-B

What should the actual script be?
