Default folders not picked up after restart!

[scenge]

Hi,

We are using Filemaker Server Advanced 7.0v3 on an XServe running MacOSX 10.4.1 to share databases both using the instant web publisher and Filemaker client access.

We have specified an additional folder for FM Server to pickup databases to share.

This works fine until the server needs to be re-started. After a

restart there are no databases available (web or client) UNTIL FileMaker server is stopped and then started. This behaviour is reproducible.

Is this a known problem? Any work-around?

Any suggestions would be welcome.

I take it FMS is set to start when the machine boots. What does the FMS event log say after the machine boots. There should be an entry about the additional data folder.

Just for curiosity; check the folder permissions on the standard data folder and the additional ones. Are they different?
