I installed Plastic on our web server and launched it. Setup username and password for myself via username/password model. closed plastic, stopped service added db.conf file.

Fails to create the DB with this message:

Okay resolved the issues using: <DatabasePath>Path To Remote Directory Where SQL server is running</DatabasePath> option in the DB.conf file.

I was installing on a clustered SQL server. Had to copy the repositories files to a location accessible to the cluster. Once there the creation of the files on the db worked.
