DevOps, CI/CD and Automation

Using WinXP under a restricted user account I am trying to run a report from one of my forms and having lots of problems, won't go into them all right now so will start with the first one. Anyone know why i am getting the following problem... (does not occur when logged in as an administrator)

REP-0118 Unable to create a temporary file

The oracle help file suggested the following possible causes:

Case 1: The environment variable that determines in what directory to create temporary files is set to an invalid directory.

Not sure which environment they are talking about but am assuming its one of these

User Variables:
TEMP and TMP is set to %USERPROFILE%\Local Settings\Temp
System Variables:
TEMP and TMP is set to C:\WINDOWS\Temp

User has all necessary privileges on C:\WINDOWS\Temp and yes it exists.

Which variable does reports refer to I wonder?


Case 2: There is not enough free space on the disk to create the temporary file.
Have checked got 4 Gb free.


Case 3: A temporary file that cannot be modified already exists.
Where are temporary files normally created by reports is it in TEMP.


Really stuck and would appreciate any help.
