SCVersion returns ?

August 22, 201114 yr

In the following environment, client machines stopped returning the SCVersion nr:

FMP11v3

Windows XP 2002 SP3

FMServer 11.03.309 is on WindowsServer 2008 R2

SuperContainer v2.81, running smoothly

When the server is approached from an FMP instance on the server machine itself, SCVersion gives the proper number.

On client machines in the same LAN, the plugin evaluates correctly from the Preference Menu as Tab plugins in FileMaker, but strangely enough the Autocalc field GetValue ( SCversion ; 1 ) returns a question mark.

Since it works from a local FMP and fresh clones from the UI files did not help, I assume the External CustomFunction is not corrupted.

Any other clue would be appreciated because this is one deep mystery...

Issue Solved: I was overlooking the obvious, the plugin was not checked as ON in FMP preferences.

Users receive the plugin via a local admin when they log in the company network, but the permissions of that file did not allow opening while in the extensions folder, so it remained unchecked.
