Problem:

In the scenario that Mainframe express has been in stalled into C:\\PROGRAM FILES\\MFE and the MFUSER folder into D:\\MFUSER, an error may occur when trying to use the SQL Wizard with the XDB Server running like a Service.

The error is...

"X001: Cannot perform 'find' on file 'D:\\mfuser\\config\\system\\*.DD?'"  

If the XDB Server is run as a "blue screen" server, the error is not visible.

How can this be avoided..?

Resolution:

The problem is being caused by a  service / permissions problem.

Follow   START >CONTROL PANEL > ADMINISTRATIVE TOOLS > SERVICES

Right click on the  Micro Focus XDB Server for MFE 3.0 services, and choose PROPERTIES.

Open the LOG ON tab.

The  LOCAL SYSTEM ACCOUNT option should be checked on.

Change this, by checking on THIS ACCOUNT.

Enter a valid domain/network ID and password, with the correct access to  mfuser\\config\\system\\*.DD? files
