Hi,
I am trying to run the FilterDemo from the ETO Samples site, but I am running into the error below. What should I do to fix this error?

Hi Pim,
Do you have multiple versions of ETO Server installed? If so, make sure that the references to Autodesk.Intent.Services in the FilterDemo projects point to the ETO Server 2013 R2 version.
Hi Scott,
Thanks for your quick response! I just realized I have Autodesk Inventor ETO Components 2013 R2 installed, but also Autodesk Inventor ETO Server 2013 R1. I am downloading Autodesk Inventor ETO Server 2013 R2 right now, so hopefully that fixes the issue.
Thanks!

Hi Scott,
Instaling Autodesk ETO Server 2013 R2 solved this issue, however when I try to configure the Filter in the web application I am getting an error message telling 'An error has occured' on almost every action. In the ETO Server Configurator I see some errors in the log which might be causing this errors. I can see it's a directory not found error, but I am not sure which directory the error is about. My guess is that it has something to do with the Design Project (Inventor project), but all the directories specified in this Inventor Project exists. I added the Inventor Project to Inventor without any problem. Do you have any idea how to solve this one?

I think we've seen this caused by the ETO application files being in a location that is inaccessible to the InventorETOServices user (or the user that the IntentSessionManager service is running under). For example, if the FilterDemo files are in your user directory, etc. If that is the case, just move the files to a directory that the InventorETOServices user has access to, or edit the permissions of the folder the FilterDemo files are in and give access to the InventorETOServices user.
Hi Scott,
I just double checked the security on the FilterDemo folder (which is on the default Visual Studio 2010\Projects location). The administrators group already had full rights, but I also explicitly added the InventorETOServices user and gave full rights to the folder and every within this folder. I am still getting the same error.
I am getting the same error as well when I press the 'Test Application Services' button after selecting the 'FilterDemoInventor' row in the Inventor ETO Server Configurator. Any other ideas?
I have Silverlight SDK 5 installed. There is no IIS installed on the machine.

After two days trying to figure out why the System.IO.DirectoryNotFoundException occurs, I am out of options. All the ETO Server sample (Staircase, FilterDemo, Conveyor) are giving the same error. What could be causing the DirectoryNotFoundException?
It looks to me ETO Server wants to activate an Inventor project, but it can't find a specfic directory...
Hi Pim,
I forgot about another possible cause of this. There is a directory that used to be created automatically by Inventor Server that no longer is by Inventor Server 2013 SP1. Please check if you have this folder on your system:
C:\Users\InventorETOServices\Documents\Inventor Server x64 Inventor ETO Server
Note that if the InventorETOServices user has been deleted and recreated, there may be multiple user directories for it, such as:
C:\users\InventorETOServices.<MachineName>.000\Documents\Inventor Server x64 Inventor ETO Server
C:\users\InventorETOServices.<MachineName>.001\Documents\Inventor Server x64 Inventor ETO Server
In this case, add the directory in the newest one.
Hi Scott,
Creating the C:\Users\InventorETOServices\Documents\Inventor Server x64 Inventor ETO Server folder solved the problem! Many thanks! Would be good to create a knowledge base article or a hotfix I guess..
