Uwe,

When you installed Log4OM did you let it select it's own folders/directories or did you tell it to use a different location?

It is likely that you have the base config files in a locked/secure folder that may not be accessible during start of Log4OM.

Uwe,

Your comment tells me that you did not let Log4OM install to it's normal default folders.

By creating your own folder to put the basis of the program in will cause all manner of issues.

Now ... in that regard there are two version of Log4OM for an OM to install.

1) Standard version
2) Portable version (used most often for a thumb-drive, etc..

Which of the two installation packages did you select, download and install?

What version of Log4OM have you installed?

After entering all information in the settings procedure did you forget always to hit "Save config" ?
