It keeps the original formatting.
numero = 111700
interpreted = N
texte = Problem solved. It seems the paths in the WebCatalog Prefs file must be relative to the WebCatalogEngine folder. For example, first I move up the hierarchy 4 levels to get to the server root (/) then I proceed down to the correct folder: ../../../../var/www/html/serverFiles/webdna/mail/EmailDropFolder/ I forgot to put a trailing slash after the folder names in my previous post too, but I had them in my prefs file. Once I reconfigured my paths like this I got it working.

Problem solved. It seems the paths in the WebCatalog Prefs file must be relative to the WebCatalogEngine folder. For example, first I move up the hierarchy 4 levels to get to the server root (/) then I proceed down to the correct folder: ../../../../var/www/html/serverFiles/webdna/mail/EmailDropFolder/ I forgot to put a trailing slash after the folder names in my previous post too, but I had them in my prefs file.
