LittleMouse Posted February 1, 2005 Share Posted February 1, 2005 Hello, I am new here and just starting to use FMP 7. We are converting all our databases from 5.5 to 7 and plan to host them on the same server. I have brought databases onto the server computer and tried opening them, but I am only allowed to get on them as a guest. Next I tried creating a new database, put in user names and passwords and changed the admin password, but as soon as I closed the database and tried to open it again, it would only let me log on as a guest. I've read a few tech briefs, but nothing seems to address this problem. They all suggest that it should be as easy as pie to open the file (and I'd thought it would, too.) I've gone through the security settings on the new databases and allowed everything I can think of. Is it something really easy that I'm missing? Again, I'm brand new to this and any help would be much appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ender Posted February 1, 2005 Share Posted February 1, 2005 For OS X, check the permissions of the files in the Databases folder. They should have fmsadmin as the Group with "Read and Write" access. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
