Problem with Shared DataSource

Hi,

I read about Sealight's problem with Shared Datasource ("Threads not starting with DataSource Loop", http://www.eviware.com/component/option ... 194#msg194)

and I am in a quite similar situation with SoapUI 1.7.6 Pro - but I have a different trouble :

when launching a Load Test with any number threads (1 or more ) and a Shared Excel Datasource, the following failure occurs on the datasource step :
"java.lang.Exception: Missing properties for DataSource"

If I turn off the 'Shared' parameter on the DataSource, or just run the Datasource step, the problem does not occur.

Any idea of the reason ?

Thanks in advance.

Nicolas.
