Frequently Asked Questions: Error Messages

  1. Why did I get a "Waiting for network clearance" message?
  2. Why can’t my students save their work?

1. Why did I get a "Waiting for network clearance" message?

If this message occurs when you start a unit of our software, but before you see a list of classes and student names, then you have not granted students Write access to the student records folder.

If this message occurs when you start a unit of our software, but after you have seen a list of classes and student names, then you have not granted students Read or Write access to the folders where the software was installed.

This message may also occur if a client machine does not recognize the location on the server where the software is installed. The client and server must connect to the network drive in the same way. For example, if the software is installed in the folder R:/apps/merit, the client must also look for R:/apps/merit, not S:/server/merit or Server/merit. Use the Windows Map Network Drive command to enable this feature.

This message might also occur when installing newer Merit programs on a server with older Merit programs on it. We have recently made many improvements to our software. Some of these advances have made older student records unusable with our current Teacher Program Manager.

If you believe this is the source of the problem, remove any Merit record files (*.MAV) from your system and restart the application. If you choose to delete the Merit record files, please empty the recycle bin before re-starting the software.

2. Why can’t my students save their work?

When students are not granted Read and Write access to the folders to which the software was installed (including the student records folder), they will not be able to save their work.

Please make sure that all Merit Software folders and sub-folders allow students to have Read and Write access.
