Problem Description

When attempting to save a file in RAM Modeler, an error like the one below occurs:

"Could not zip ram model files: P:\ to create file P:\filename.rss.  Please contact Bentley Technical Support."

The drive specified is a network drive. The actual file may be saved either locally or on the network drive.

Reason

The working directory is set to a network drive. The program is prevented from compressing the files in the working directory into the .rss file format after using the save command.

The problem with saving the file in the working directory does not occur in RAM Manager.

Option 2:  Change the Path of the working directory
