v8 RC File Browser Access Issue

[microfoundry]

Greetings - currently running 8.0.6441 and I just noticed one of my two nodes errors on the creation on an image file and logs the following error:

FileBrowser: Could not create image : insufficient rights!

Additionally the File Browser window does not display any data (drives/folders/files) while trying to create a virtual disk. FWIW, it does display data if trying to create a Virtual CDRom.

TIA,

Terry

Hello Terry,

Hi Bohdan - just for kicks, I compared the config files from my 2 nodes and discovered the <filebrowser> sections were not the same

Before:
<filebrowser>
<imagedir path="*" flags="cmdfv" alias="VTLs" extensions="swdsk"/>
<imagedir path="*" flags="cmdfv" alias="VTapes" extensions="VTape"/>
<imagedir path="*" flags="cdmfv" alias="Event Logs" extensions="txt,log"/>
<imagedir path="*" flags="cdmfv" alias="Headers" extensions="swdsk"/>
<imagedir path="*" flags="v" alias="My Computer" extensions="*"/>
<imagedir path="*" flags="v" alias="Image Files" extensions="img,dat"/>
</filebrowser>


After (matching my good node):
<filebrowser>
<imagedir path="*" flags="cdmfv" alias="My Computer" extensions="*"/>
<imagedir path="*" flags="cdmfv" alias="Image Files" extensions="img,dat"/>
<imagedir path="*" flags="cmdfv" alias="VTLs" extensions="swdsk"/>
<imagedir path="*" flags="cmdfv" alias="VTapes" extensions="VTape"/>
<imagedir path="*" flags="cdmfv" alias="Event Logs" extensions="txt,log"/>
<imagedir path="*" flags="cdmfv" alias="Headers" extensions="swdsk"/>
</filebrowser>

I'm not sure how/when/why the config file got off into the weeds, but the change fixed my issue.

Care to share the official definition of the flags attributes?

Thanks again!
