Access to ScriptManager in DB hosted with FMS10

[boilnh2o]

I've been working at a clients location setting up a new solution I wrote for them. Their DB is being hosted on a Campus Filemaker Server. I've no problem making fixes to scripts via the script manager on a workstation, off of these files. Another issue came up, so I set up a FMS10 developer server (TechNet Member) so that I could test my solution with multiple clients and the server at my home office. When my solution is on the server, I can't get into Script Manager (It's Grayed out.) I'm logged in with full privileges. I've never had this problem before. Is it due to FMS10? I was under the impression that the Campus server was FMS10, but now I'm not sure.

Thanks.

Script Manager... you mean ScriptMaker?

Check that the file is not locked (OS privileges). Try creating a new record and you'll get an error.

Also check out custom menus (does not sound likely but possible).

Try to avoid making schema changes on live, hosted files. if your connection is dropped, you can inflict damage on the files.

Thanks. Here's the weirdness. In the Campus environment, My solution, which is made up of two data files, running on their server, completely worked on both my laptop and the first Desktop that I used for testing. When I went to a second workstation to test the solution, some basic scripts steps were not doing anything. (I do a comparison and the result sets a variable which I use to Set a Fields content) I went back to the original workstation and it works (logged in as the same user/privs) That's when I took it home, set up the server and recreated the problem. If the files are running in FMP on the localhost, they work fine. When on the server....
