Hello,
I am trying to run SmartPLS on a Mac, using VMWare Fusion Virtual Machine. The first problem was java related, and that was solved. Currently, when I tried running it, the following error comes up.
Warning
SmartPLS needs to store information in your home directory
\\vmware-host\Shared Folders was determined to be the path to that directory, but
-SmartPLS cannot create a file in that directory
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Home Directory issue using VMWARE
I have the exact same issue. I cannot run the current version of SmartPLS until I can work around this issue. I think I solved my JRE issue by adding an .ini file AND keeping the JRE in the install directory AND changing default permissions to give all users full control over directory contents. Any solutions to this problem? I'm stuck and I've spent over 4 hours trying to get SmartPLS installed. I have over 200 apps installed on my machine (i'm a software engineer by trade). This seems overly complext to me. It shouldn't be such a big deal to install software!

Re: Home Directory Error when running SmartPLS
I got the similar problem.
here is the message:
"SmartPLS needs to store information in your home directory.
C:\Users\rauza was determined to be the path to that directory, but
this directiry does not exist"
while I put folder of smartPLS2 at C:\smartpls2
could anyone solve this?
