[h-e-w] 23.1.50; "The directory .emacs.d/server is unsafe" problem

[Václav Haisman]

This is a bug report for the PATCHED Emacs+EmacsW32.
Please test the unpatched version of Emacs+EmacsW32 before reporting
if you can. If the bug is also in the unpatched version then
report from the unpatched version else report here.

If it is very inconvenient for you to try the unpatched version,
but you believe the bug is not related to the patches then you
may change the address above to address@hidden

For easy to read information about the patches see EmacsW32 home
page.


Please write in English if possible, because the Emacs maintainers
usually do not have translators to read other languages for them.

Your bug report will be posted to the address@hidden mailing list.

Please describe exactly what actions triggered the bug
and the precise symptoms of the bug.  If you can, give
a recipe starting from `emacs -Q':


I am getting the following error right after installation of patched
Emacs, when it tries to start to let me configure it. The directory
.emacs.d/server did not exist before I intalled Emacs.

Debugger entered--Lisp error: (error "The directory
`c:/Users/wilx/AppData/Roaming/.emacs.d/server' is unsafe")
  signal(error ("The directory
`c:/Users/wilx/AppData/Roaming/.emacs.d/server' is unsafe"))
  error("The directory `%s' is unsafe"

If Emacs crashed, and you have the Emacs process in the gdb debugger,
please include the output from the following gdb commands:
    `bt full' and `xbacktrace'.
For information about debugging Emacs, please read the file
c:/Program Files (x86)/Emacs/emacs/etc/DEBUG.
