Web Screens and network path installation

SOLVED

I have seen some posts say that Web Screens should be installed with Sage 300 on a local path. But I have users on the network who use the desktop screens also from the same server.

Can I install Web Screens on a server where Sage 300 is installed on a network path?

    Thanks for confirming.

    I am getting the following error on logging in to Web Screens on a new installation:

    A problem occurred when signing in to web screens. Try signing in to the Sage 300 Desktop and
    activate data for all company databases that use the same system database before signing in to web
    screens.

    The Sage 300 Desktop is working fine.

    Is there something different that has to be done when Sage 300 is installed on a network path?

    I have two different installations. One on drive C: has web screens working without issues. Another on a network path has login issues.

    The two setups are identical except for the installation path. Sage 300 v2022.

    So, what is that I have to do differently on the installation on the network path?

    Thanks.

    I resolved this by installing on the local path and only pointing the shared data folder to the network path.

    Hope this helps someone.
