Title: bug with icons
Post by: nine020ho on January 06, 2005, 07:41:55 PM

when you install the qube in a location other than c:\program files\qube, the icons do not show up . 

I am trying to install the Qube on our main shared disk so that when we have new Qube job types, I can put them in one spot and everyone gets them without.

Hey nine020ho,

       There are actually several ways this can be addressed.  I'll go through the recommended method first.

        When configuring each client and worker machine, qube uses a template path for finding job types.

        This is the worker_template_path option in the qb.conf file located here: C:\winnt\qb.conf or C:\windows\qb.conf

        Normally this is set to:  C:\Program Files\qube\types

        However for cases where you create your own 'custom' types and want them network located, it's simpler to do this:

        worker_template_path = "C:\Program Files\qube\types;N:\my network\types"

         Both the worker and the client applications such as the GUI will use this setting. 

         

         To address the icons problem, the gui normally derives the icons location from the qb_directory path in the qb.conf file.  If you are moving the installation, you need to modify the qb_directory to match the new location:

          qb_directory = "N:\network path"


        Thanks,
              Anthony
