Describe the problem/error/question
Hello,
I have workflows that create a file on a shared folder (on another server). I have the error “The file “\\srv2\folder\file.csv” is not writable.”
For the rest of my test I switched to Read files from disk. I have the error “Access to the file is not allowed. Allowed paths: …”.
I first tought “its’s because its’ a shared folder”, but that not the case since I only have the issue with srv2 and srv3, but it works fine with srv1 and srv4.
There’s no misstyping.
I checked the folders rights, it’s all good. Everyone has access and can read/modify ; I even try to add right to my specific user.
My older versions of N8N (0.192.1 and 1.122.4) don’t have issue.
Do I miss something?
What is the error message ?
Access to the file is not allowed. Allowed paths: C:/N8N_folder, C:/N8N_folder2, C:/N8N_folder3, C:/N8N_folder4, C:/N8N_folder5, C:/N8N_folder6, C:/N8N_folder7, //srv1/folder/subfolder, //srv1/folder/subfolder, //srv2/folder/ //srv3/folder, //srv4/folder/subfolder
