Tag File not found errors?
« on: April 21, 2023, 07:23:18 PM »
I'm having constant issues with tag files. Usually, seemingly out of the blue, it will say "Tag File Not Found" and I have to retag the workspace to get them back. Also every time this happens I can see the tag file in the correct directory, so it's confused about it not being there.
My files are accessed through a vpn which does disconnect automatically so I'm wondering if this is somehow confusing Slickedit. Anybody ever see this problem and hopefully there is a solution for this constantly happening.

SlickEdit Pro 2021 (v26.0.0.6 64-bit Qt5)

Try to following:  Go to "Project > Workspace Properties... > Tag Files Directory..." and select a local directory for SlickEdit to maintain the tag files at.  If you do this for multiple workspaces, you'll want to make sure there are no conflicts.

Moving the tag file to a local directory did the trick. Slickedit is usable again. Thanks!
