LOG in another drive

 

Hi!

Is there any way to run Meta5 in drive C: but redirect all tester log files to, for instance, drive E: ?

Some tests are creating several gigabytes files...

Thanks!

 
You can run in portable mode from drive E
 

You can use symlink. For example:

mklink /D C:\...MQ data path...\tester\files E:\tester\files

or maybe a better solution:

mklink /J C:\...MQ data path...\tester\files E:\tester\files

You have to run "cmd" with administrator's privileges.

Hi Nickolish, sorry for the delay.

How run PORTABLE mode in an installed Meta5?

Thank you!

Hi Petr.

A question: won't a symbolic link just run "like" drive E: but keeping the real utilized drive as C:?

I mean, it seems a way to make program to interpret "E:" but really pointing the file/dir to C:, isn't it?

Thanks.
