So I my campaign will not save

[poobah_1]

I already tried moving the data directory to my Users\<username>\appdata\roaming\fantasy grounds\...

Still no joy..

Here are the error messages I get....

Hola poohbah_1 see this post: https://www.fantasygrounds.com/forums/showthread.php?27005-Campaign-not-saving&p=251374&viewfull=1#post251374

[poobah_1]

I have full permission on every folder. That was the first thing I checked. If I go to the fantasy grounds folder and loo at the permissions every user and very group has full permissions

[damned]

Im pretty sure you can delete (rename is safer) the first three files but the error says you dont have sufficient permissions.

[poobah_1]

I am aware that is what is says. Let me see if I can show you the screenshot of my permissions:
15074

[damned]

I cant see your attachment (not approved yet) but if you have set the permissions on the \Fantasy Grounds directory did you apply to all subfolders/files? Can you go to the folder in question (/Fantasy Grounds/campaigns/r-1 The Curse of Iggwilv) and check the permissions there too.

[LordEntrails]

If you create a new campaign with the name of just "test" does it work?

There is a limit to the total path length of any file. And though I wouldn't expect a permissions message, its hard to predict how FG would interpret it.

Try the options in this sticky thread: https://www.fantasygrounds.com/forums/showthread.php?30604-Windows-file-access-issues-can-t-update-campaigns-not-saving-etc-Fix-options

I cannot save any campaign. Newly created or existing. A
Tried the three recommended steps. New directory. Admin run as admin, changing rights ... Nothing works. Even moved to while new hard drive with everyone having full right to every folder, sub folder, and file.

No joy

[poobah_1]

When I create a new campaign. The only error I get when I exit is below:


Runtime Error: Unable to save file (E:/Fantasy Grounds/GlobalRegistry.lua) - Error (13): Permission denied
Runtime Notice: Returning to launcher


But I can seem to add NPC's add modules...in other words save to the database. But when I move my files from my old campaign folder to the newly created folder, the issue seems to follow the files.

Ergo, I now think that the files must have picked up an attribute that does not allow them to be modified by anything....

[poobah_1]

And that fixed it. Somehow, all the files had the Read-Only attribute applied to them.

I removed that...and presto chango....

Thanks for all the suggestions and assistance, you guys are great...

now just add a script to allow for: rerolls of 1 and 2 for damage and enhanced criticals - for NPC's - and I will be happy!

So to further the general knowledge base:

There is a new update of Windows 10. Normally no issue. The issue was started when after I updated the OPS, all of my folder viewing permissions were reset. So I could not see c:\programdata, from my windows explorer.

Not in order to fix this, I changed the attributes of C:\ and all subfolders to not have the "hidden" tag added as an attribute.

But I did not remove the "read only" attribute flag that is right about the "hidden" attribute.

So by my making everything visible, I also made it "read only"!

Truly a genius move! So I post this to make sure no other player/GM makes the same newbie mistake.

Good work poobah_1. Make sure you only change the permissions for the \fantasy Grounds folder and not the ProgramData folder. Also - instead of changing \ProgramData to not hidden you can change your Explorer options to be able to view hidden folders - they will then have a slightly washed out or transparent icon so you can still tell which ones were hidden. Also if you use the FG Explorer button link from the splash screen and use the Up arrow to navigate up one level you can see your folder without doing wither your or my change :)
