Description Joe Toomey CLA 2007-06-13 08:57:59 EDT
Running the AC as a service, this was my first manual test execution.  When I tried to add an attachment, I got an error when I clicked on the "Look In" drop down in the browse dialog because the working directory for the browse dialog did not exist.  I was able to navigate to a valid directory and attach files.  I didn't get this error in subsequent runs, because it remembered the last valid directory I chose.  Screen shot of error is attached (note the LocalService/Desktop path)

This issue is with the native Windows file dialog and can not be resolved by configuring the SWT file dialog (org.eclipse.swt.widgets.FileDialog).  The LocalService account is a predefined local account used by the service control manager.  It has minimum privileges on the local computer, including a password and desktop.

Investigating to determine why the native Windows file dialog is attempting to resolve the C:\Documents and Settings\LocalService\Desktop path when the Look in: drop-down is opened.

Correcting target.
Comment 4 Paul Slauenwhite CLA 2007-12-10 11:13:24 EST
In TPTP 4.5, the Manual Test type was moved from a General Availability (GA) component to an As-Is component. As-Is components are primarily provided for prior users but imply no support (for example, defects, news group, and mailing lists) or commitment to triage or resolve opened defects. For this defect to be considered, please re-open with an attached patch including code to resolve the symptom and test cases to test the fix.

Closing by default since not closed by the originator in the 7+ months since
being resolved.  

Please reopen if the issue is still present in the latest TPTP release or the
resolution is not correct.
