Description

Resolution:
The limitation comes from the HAWK Agent service, since HAWK Agent is installed as a NT service, and if it starts without proper priviledges to access the network drive then you might see this problem.

There are two solutions for this

1. When deploying the project, deploy it as Windows Service with the appropriate user id who has access to the network drives.

2. If you do not want to deply the process as a NT service then go to control panel -- Services and configure your HAWK agent to start on the user who has appropriate  priviledges to access the network drives and then deploy the project.
