Soapui-settings.xml hidden (Access Denied)

[Mister-Puck]

Hello everyone, sorry to bother you,

Sorry if this question has already been asked, I've checked mutliple thread but I don't find any answer to my issue.

Here is my problem :

Everytime I want to change any option in : File > Preference > Editor Settings menu, I've always the same message(screen1) : "java.io.FileNotFoundException : C:\User\XXX\soapui-settings.xml (acces denied)"

I've checked the logs :

• Fri Nov 30 10:34:09 CET 2018:ERROR:An error occurred [C:\Users\apain\soapui-settings.xml (Accès refusé)], see error log for details.

Error logs (screen2)

I'm a bit stuck here... If anyone can help it would be great...

Thanks for the read and for your help.

Hi,

you can try couple things:

• First, make sure that the soapui-settings.xml actually exists in your user path (C://User/XXX)
• Second, check that the "Read only" option is not checked (right click the soapui-settings.xml)
• If none of these work, try restart your PC (to prevent that file is locked by other process) and reinstall soapui

Hope you find a sollution with this.
