Working on Network drive

Eric_Bourque · August 19, 2015, 3:08pm

Hello Monkeys!

I am doing a multiplayer game. Up till now I have been transfering the whole project from one computer to another to do testing. This takes time.

I added a shared disk to my network (with homegroup and EVERYONE having full access). The server and local client runs fine but when I open the project on the remote computer and try to run it I get the following error:

Any ideas?

SEVERE: Uncaught exception thrown in Thread[LWJGL Renderer Thread,5,main]
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: URI has an authority component

stack overflow has some posts on the topic:

This exception isn’t jmonkey specific and seems to come from windows handling the URIs differently
P.S. Why does stackoverflow use the authors profile pic as preview image? I love it! XD

Eric_Bourque · August 19, 2015, 5:15pm

That explains it well but I was looking for someone who has experience with using jme through a networked workspace…

Momoko_Fan · August 19, 2015, 5:19pm

Can you post the log with the entire exception? What you posted has the stack trace cut off.

Eric_Bourque · August 19, 2015, 5:37pm

Exception came from File.java

I double checked, all subfolders have correct rights

P.S Would creating a local git rep help me at all?

local git is the way I’d go in this case, yes, maybe even online if you have the option

Eric_Bourque · August 19, 2015, 5:41pm

Ok, can you please explain to me how to set it up locally? I have zero experience with gits.

I noticed I can right click project → Versioning → Initialise git repository. Whats next?

normen · August 19, 2015, 5:50pm

No, this is not a git forum

Momoko_Fan · August 19, 2015, 7:27pm

I created a bug entry for this. Feel free to look into it.

Empire_Phoenix · August 19, 2015, 8:27pm

Just mount it as a drive and be happy.

Eric_Bourque · August 20, 2015, 7:42pm

Thanks for the entry Momoko_Fan!

Eric_Bourque · August 20, 2015, 8:16pm

Hey Momoko_Fan, after looking through your bug entry I found a simple way to make it work by mounting network drives as local, using Symbolic links!

http:// serverfault.com/questions/108193/mount-network-drive-as-physical-drive

Just open CMD as admin and type in (Windows Vista or later):

mklink /D C:\LinkName \NetworkLocation\LocationName

Thank you so much this is going to save me allot of time!
