We had a bunch of problems trying to save to the network. Hexagon said we had too many restrictions, our IT people said we had full admin rights. It was a lot of trial and error.
Everything Hexagon tried didn't work. The only way we got it to work was to use stats on, offline yes, xmlstats command on to a folder on the computer and use the data importer to move the xml files form the computer to the database on our network.
We had datapage 5.0 installed on the same computer as our offline seat. Just make sure datapage can access the database. Data importer is a free download form hexagon. You can set it to auto import data what a set frequency, 1 min, 2 hours, etc. The only draw back is that when they restart the computer on the cmm ( for whatever reason) the data importer is turned off and much be turned back on. I started checking it every morning as I come into work. Either way all the files are still be stored on the computer until the data importer send them.
I was fortunate enough that my IT dude is very smart. He actually spent many hours for many days speaking with Hexagon Support troubleshooting our network.
Code I use:
STATS/ON,DATAPAGE+,,OFFLINE=YES RECORD=DIMENSION,TRACE,COMMENT,ALIGNMENT,FEATURE,HIT, XMLSTATS/ON,C:\Users\Public\Documents\WAI\PC-DMIS\2015.0\ (this creates the xml file and stores in on the cmm computer) (have the data importer check this folder at a set frequency and send it to the database on the network)(make sure datapage is connected to this database)
Again this is the only way it worked. Good Luck.
If you're using XML files and data importer, try this instead:
At the end of the program, Insert>External Command>DataPageStats.exe (this is found in your DataPage installation folder). This doesn't require the use of STATS/ON, and all of that other nonsense, (for clarity's sake, this means the ONLY DataPage related thing you put in your program is the external command at the end). You will only need to change where the Importer looks for the XML files.
The DataPageStats.exe sends the XML files (by default) to C:\Users\Username\AppData\Roaming\DataPage+ (you will need to have "Show hidden files or folders" enabled).
