license manager error on 2008 server

[Richard Kreiss]

Bruce,

I don't see anything below pointing to the license manager. 

One if my clients is running fp in A widows 2008 virtual server and a second server also running server2008 virtual for terminal server and all local connections. All 64bit and not seeing the problems you are having. 

Nancy is correct in that everyone need full access to appl and its subfolders. 

I'll send you a copy if the startup file when I get to my office. 

Off the topic but a suggestion that might speed things up. Put a small ssd in and use it for the temp directory.
