Selecting a block located in a read-only directory causes an error

Tech Note: TN0948
Product: OpenEx
Version: 2.20
Date Added: 2014-11-07

Issue

In v2.20 OpenEx, TNT files (.tnt) are created along with each new block. If you select a pre-existing block with no TNT file, OpenEx will create one. This fails if the block is read-only, which can often occur when reading from a network location.

Workaround

Obtain read-write access to the tank directory or select the block from a user account that has read-write access.

Solution

Update to the latest version of OpenEx. This issue was resolved in v2.24.
