"Cannot find file resource paths for 'COMPONENT NAME'" problem

[Andy Allred [MS]]

Read this tip article, part of it is relevant in your case that explains how
to create a repository object to own those files. The problem is most likely
that your files were never copied into a repository when you imported your
SLD, hence TD will never find your files. Create a repository object, point
it at the location of your files, import the fixed SLD and there should now
be a new repository folder with the other reps on your development machine.

Hi everyone,

I'm trying to add a new component to my XPE image. Unfortunately, I get the
said error. My new component has files that are targetted for copying into
paths that are not yet existing in the standard Win XP(E) tree. To my
understanding, if I define a file destination like:
'%16422%\NewPath1\NewSubPath'
in Component Designer, the said path will be automatically created in my XPE
image.
If this is indeed the case, then what else could be the cause of this error?
I believe Target Designer *should* be able to read all files properly as
Database
Manager was able to import all files with "Copy repository files to
repository root"
check box checked.
If defined destination paths are not automatically created, then how will I
define them
in my XPE image?

Best Regards,

Vic
