Problems with pictures

[Peter Lars Jensen]

Hi,

I have a problem with FMPro and pictures in a container. It is a single user version of FMPro 6 installed on a OSX Server. I have started up the database on the server and enabled sharing over TCP. The database looks fine when viewed and browsed on the server.

But when I log in from a client machine (with a single user FMPro 6 installed) via TCP over the net, something goes wrong. The database looks fine eccept from the pictures (JPG). In all the pict-fields the pictures are now missing and instead it says something like this: "Could not draw picture file: 11547-abc.jpg".

Again everything is fine in the local shared version, but it looks like it can not find the link to the specified picture-folder when served over the net to the clients.

I know this solution can only run with max. approx. 10 users, but why will the picts not show up correctly?

Any help would be greatly appreciated

Sounds like the .jpg file was inserted into the database with the "store only a reference to" checkbox checked. Try reinserting the .jpg without that option.
