Question

Symbol write error: "invalid directory name"

Help!

 

I'm running Creo 2.0 date code M230. I'm trying to save a symbol that I've successfully defined, but when I try to write it to disk, I get an "invalid directory name".

 

Config.pro is set like so:

pro_symbol_dir C:\home\LWL\M7082\Symbols

 

User permissions are fine, no problems saving other files (drw, .asm, .prt, etc.)

 

Anyone have an idea or two? I'm stumped.

Dear ggallo_ceme,

 

I don't know that this is a 'fix', but it works for me. Don't type anything; just press ENTER. The symbol will be saved to the specified directory in your config.pro, for example:

pro_symbol_dir C:\program files\Creo4\symbols

 

Hope this helps,
