When I Install Subsonic on another drive that is not c drive it gives me problems. For example in the install it says.
ERROR OPENING FILE FOR WRITING:
C:\SUBSONIC\TRANSCODE\README.TXT
ABORT RETRY OR IGNORE.

The problem is that my windows is located in my E:\ drive not c: So I then how can I get this working. This happens even though I said it to install in my e:\program files\subsonic

If you look under -->> Program Files\subsonic there is a file named subsonic-service.exe.vmoptions

Open that file with a text editor (I prefer Notepad++) and add the below line at the end of the file.

-Dsubsonic.home=d:/subsonic

of course you can make it e:/subsonic or whatever you full path is.

Hit Save and Reboot
