ID: Q197031
The information in this article applies to:
When you open a Code-behind HTML project on a remote shared network directory and build it, the following error occurs:
Failed to generate signature for Project1.CAB, because it does not
exist.
This error occurs only on some system configurations. You get the same results regardless of whether or not you use a UNC path or if the shared network directory is mapped to a network drive.
Copy the project to your local drive to resolve the error message. You can also rename the shared network drive to an 8.3 filename to resolve the error.
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a bug in the Microsoft products listed at the beginning of this article.
NOTE: These steps only reproduce the behavior under some system configurations.
1. Map your Z: drive to a shared network directory that has a long path
name (for example, \\javadev1\OurProjects).
2. Open a Code-behind HTML project (for example, Z:\My Projects\Project1)
on a remote shared network directory.
3. Build the project.
