I installed TOAD 14.1 and try to launch (compare 2 schemas)
Toad.exe -a "App1->comparecdc | comparecdc.ini"
I get the error "Unable to create directory", it is not clear to me which directory is not created and why.
Try giving the full path to comparecdc.ini
Content of comparecdc.ini: (I tried various things with BaseOutputFolder)

Thanks a lot! This seems to work, is this new and intended behavior?
(currently we use toad 12.9 in all of our compare scripts, in that version it works without)
I'm not sure. What folder is that ini file in?
My test setup is on the root of my z-drive:
Toad.exe -a "App1->comparecdc | z:\comparecdc.ini"
When I run from a sub-folder same...
Z:\othertest>Toad.exe -a "App1->comparecdc | comparecdc.ini"
--> This does not work
When I prefix with ./
Z:\othertest>Toad.exe -a "App1->comparecdc | .\comparecdc.ini"
--> This works
I think it is always best to specify the folder, but we need to give a better message when you don't.
I'll fix that.
Thanks!
Since all the compare scripts are generated, it is a small fix for me to add the path...
