Hi All,
I was using Talend 6.3.1 previously and recently upgraded and installed Talend 6.5.1
However when I tried to open the pogram it was giving me this error and would not allow me to continue:
The platform metadata area could not be written: C:\Program Files\Talend\Talend-Studio-V6.5.1\workspace\.metadata. By default
the platform writes its content under the current working directory when the platform is launched.
Use the -data parameter to specify a different content area for the platform.
Can somebody help me where did I go wrong with the installation?
Normally, the C:\Program Files folder is locked down by windows and you need special administrator access to read/write to it.
You should move your workspace to a different folder outside the C:\Program Files folder.
There will be an ini file in the Talend-Studio-V6.5.1 folder similar to the executable you are running. In that ini file, you can specify -data with the path to your new location for your workspace.
