Unable to access a data source from a TI process when the data source is located on a shared or other non-local drive

Troubleshooting


Problem

When creating TI processes, you will often use data sources for reading, inputting, or exporting data. Often, you might want to host these files on another machine than the TM1 server itself, and have the TI process work over the network. The TI process can sometimes throw an error such as:
Error: Prolog procedure line (0): Unable to open data source
This problem might occur even if you can view the "preview" section of the TI process correctly.
