I’m trying to run the Particular Platform Sample, and getting the following error:
Unhandled Exception: System.NotSupportedException: The given path’s format is not supported.
Here’s the full stack trace:

Hi @sneakygenius,

I wonder if the path C:\Users\muriukilm\source\repos\TestParticular\TestParticular\bin\Debug\net6.0\platform\servicecontrol\servicecontrol-audit-instance\ isn’t too long when the learning transport directories are appended.

Could you try run the sample in a directory closer to root? Maybe C:\TestParticular\bin\Debug\net6.0\platform\servicecontrol\servicecontrol-audit-instance\ ?

sneakygenius · July 26, 2022, 5:51pm

Hello @WilliamBZA I just tried that, same error.

mauroservienti · July 26, 2022, 7:52pm

Have you downloaded the sample as a zip file? Was the zip file unblocked (right click, properties, tick the unblock checkbox, OK) before being unzipped?

I’m asking because the EmulateFileIOPermissionChecks is a Code Access Security thing. I recall having had issues with that in the past when executing things from network shares (which is clearly not your case). However, similar errors happen when zip files are blocked.

I unblocked the zip and extracted, and still same error. I even created a new console app, and added Particular.PlatformLauncher.Launch(), and got the same error.
But I did the same in another machine and it worked, didn’t throw the error message. So maybe it’s something wrong with this one machine

WilliamBZA · July 27, 2022, 7:25am

The exception stems from System.Security.Permissions.FileIOPermission.EmulateFileIOPermissionChecks, so maybe there’s some permissions differences between the two?

I wish it would say what path it doesn’t have permission to…
