I'm using Windows 7 and have a remote folder available. Let's call it \\mycompany-portal\somefolder\attachments
.
I can map a network drive to the folder root, so Z:\
points to \\mycompany-portal
. I originally used the command prompt pushd \\mycompany-portal
, however manual mapping through windows explorer makes no difference.
I note that the mapped drive is actually a DavWWWRoot
I can navigate to z:\somefolder\attachments
in Windows Explorer and create a new folder therein successfully.
However, when I attempt to create a folder in this location from the cmd.exe command prompt using mkdir
I get the error:
A device attached to the system is not functioning.
The mkdir command was mkdir 11112
. The intention was for 11112 to be the Sharepoint call id. This fails, however mkdir blahblah
works just fine in the command prompt
Why would this be?
mkdir
command you're using?mkdir 11112
. The intention was for 11112 to be the Sharepoint call id. This fails, howevermkdir blahblah
works just fine in the command prompt. Strange.
