Title: Deployment of Analyst Library with UNC Paths
Post by: jv_oz on 24 Aug 2010 12:15:11 AM
Hello,

I have a bunch of Analyst Libraries and corresponding Contributor Applications that I would like to repetitively move from Production to a Test environment.  The Production server has UNC paths and when I import the deployment package from Prod to Test, it unpacks over the original Production server Analyst libraries, which is a problem!

I can always change the paths before I pack up the deployment file to be regular windows drive letter type paths and unpack them to the same location on the target server, however that then creates problems for my users who need UNC paths to get to the libraries.

Any ideas how I can overcome this annoying issue would be most appreciated!
