Database build error path too long and no mappings

[jberinge]

Hi there

Uisng licenced V2.3#136 server and networked client.  Having trouble generating the database file and because the file is empty then can not use the client. 

  The dbbuilder  log has the  following error.  Hoping that you may have some advice on how to fix this?

I have searched the forum for parh too long and I have tried to fix by changing the registry to accept longer paths lengths and that did not work.

Thanks in advance

Jason

It's obviously a design problem of MSFS and unfortunately the 'registry fix' does not help.

To my knowledge the only remedy for this is to re-install MSFS to a location which has a very short path (e.g. C:\MSFS).
