Relative path on Windows XP - RN 1.8

[marktake]

Hi,

I'm using RedNotebook 1.8 on Windows XP. I can't get the relative paths to work :(

My path with RedNotebook configuration is the following:
C:\Documents and Settings\mark\.rednotebook

I paste the following file into it: manual.doc

Then I add relative link to the file in the RedNotebook: [manual ""manual.doc""] and when I click on it then it doesn't work :(

In the rednotebook.log file I get the following message:

2014-01-11 18:22:25,655 INFO Clicked URI "file:///manual.doc"
2014-01-11 18:22:25,655 DEBUG Transformed local URI file:///manual.doc to file:///manual.doc
2014-01-11 18:22:25,655 INFO Trying to open file:///manual.doc with "os.startfile"

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/home/jendrik/data/projects/RedNotebook/build-env/drive_c/build\rednotebook\out00-PYZ.pyz\rednotebook.util.filesystem", line 333, in open_url
WindowsError: [Error 3] System nie może odnaleźć określonej ścieżki: u'file:///manual.doc'

The last line is in Polish :). It says that the system can't find the determined path: u'file:///manual.doc'

Am I doing something wrong?

The file must be put into C:\Documents and
Settings\mark\.rednotebook\data. Does it work then?

Hi,

no, it doesn't work in this case either.

I also described this problem in Question #242061

It seems that somehow a path from my system is hardcoded in the binary (/home/jendrik/data/projects/RedNotebook/build-env/drive_c/build\rednotebook\out00-PYZ.pyz\rednotebook.util.filesystem). I'll try to figure out why.
