Cannot save Process in Rapidminer

manojkumartps

I have reinsatlled Rapidminer 8 since I have cloned my hard disk to a new one. I am able to import excel data perfectly well
However when I started to save my process , it say cannot save process at //Repository/xx . After reading help articles in the forum . I deleted old instance of C:/User/Rapidminer . Did a fresh install but still the problem remained
Next I created a fresh repository folder and tried saving but the same error keep popping up. I am dissapointed since I use rapidminer regularly

Below is the error log. Data1 is the subfolder in my NewLocal repository.

Hi,

the process is named p: It is not allowed to use :  in process names, simply because windows doesn't like it.

Hi
There is no : sign there...I have just put "p" . Have tried with other names too...it didn't work

MartinLiebig

Okay,

do you have write access to the folder you are writing to?

BR,

Martin

Hi Martin...
The  folde under username has all permissions 

 

MartinLiebig

Hi,

RM tries to write to C:\Users\UserName\.RapidMiner not C:\Users\Manoj\.RapidMiner

Can you please check?

Best,

Martin
