First off, sorry if this is in the wrong location as this is my first  
posting. I have build an executable using rubyscript2exe. I’m  
attempting to run this from a network drive. It all works except when  
click\_no\_wait needs to be called prior to handling a popup. The error  
I’m getting within the console is:

CMD.EXE was started with the above path as the current directory. UNC  
paths are not supported. Defaulting to Windows directory.

The path it displays is the network folder location.

Hi,

Without any knowledge about network applications I would suspect  
rubyscript2exe. Which version of Ruby and RubyGems are you using?  
rubyscript2exe is not maintained anymore, an alternative may be the OCRA  
gem: [http://rubyforge.org/projects/ocra/](http://rubyforge.org/projects/ocra/)

Thanks for your reply. I’m using ruby 1.8.5 and gems 0.9.2. Maybe I’ll  
try updating some things and see where that takes me first
