Here is what one of my sites has:

safe doc dirs = <default>/images;<boot volume>/images;<boot volume>/ IMAGES;<default>/IMAGES

This database runs on many different sites so I find it necessary to enable access to the different implementations of the images folder/ volume/harddrive.

I'm not sure if the code is Case sensitive so I have included different cases just in case...

Hope this helps.

Has anybody used the "safe doc dirs" and might share an example with me. I am hoping this works like virtual paths in IIS. I am currently copying files from another server to the "web" serving folder for display to the browser. This works fine but seems unnecessary if safe doc dirs does the trick. For example I set up a folder on the 4d server machine "C:/ temp" which has all access granted. I have a gif file called paul.gif inside of
it.

In active4d.ini I have the line:
    safe doc dirs = /c/temp

I browse to this location:
    http://qwsrv1:8080/temp/paul.gif or
http://qwsrv1:8080/4dcgi/temp/paul.gif and they all 404.

When I create an alias/shortcut to temp I don't get the 404 anymore, I
simply get a blank screen as if the serving was done.

I guess what I am looking for is an example of this.
4d 2003.8 windows 2003 server, active4d 4.0
