Saving a service scheme to a network drive makes a corrupt file
in Development
I upgraded to 2.9.4
We have the database on a network drive T: and has it has worked without any problem on older versions of Open LP.
After I upgraded I have problem when I save the service scheme to the network drive and when I try to open it I got an error message.
If I save the service scheme to C: drive and copy it from C: drive to T: then it is no problem to open it from T:.

I have a similar issue on macOS. Except when saving to a Google Drive folder that’s mapped as a network drive.
The T: drive in above original post is Samba file sharing on a Raspberry Pi.
I also tested with a network share on my QNAP NAS and have same problem.
Same thing here:
2.9.4. on Win10 + Samba share. Saving works fine but reopening leads to error message as shown above
In addition writing to an usb-disk fails from the beginning while other programs are able to write to the disk ...
Maybe something in regard to:
It seems, at least at one point it is realized (application.py line 71):
# resolve() does not work on windows
if is_win():
return Path.cwd() / path
else:
return path.resolve()
Maybe the .absolute() approach is worth looking into
I have the same problem - saving on a network drive is possible - reopening not
@GobLin77 thanks for the tip! I didn't know about that, I think we're going to try it.
