** TROUBLESHOOTING **

If you get a “The client data path specified in CTX.INI is invalid or does not exist!” or “Unable to post message to Fx.log. Check WFXWORK path: Unexpected Error 2 ENOENT No Such File Or Directory”.

Verify the user has an E: drive. E: is supposed to map via GPO to \\gpwapps2\E$ . If that is missing, map that to E and it should fix it. And yes, The app is installed locally to the SH server and then the database runs from gpwapps2.
