sourcesafe ss.ini file not found

had some kind of glitch using visual sourcesafe - appears my ss.ini user file was corrupted, or deleted. on trying to log in i got this error message :

File "\\sourcesafe\vss\users\7hz\ss.ini" not found

the fix is to copy another users ss.ini file, remove user or machine specific settings and place that in your folder, and start vss. easy.

just noticed there is a temp file sst1116.tmp in the folder - that's probably the ss.ini file that vss was updatng when something happened. renaming that file to ss.ini also did the trick

Well I had a problem with ss.ini not found (the problem was not related to renamed file ss.ini to ss.tmp).

The solution was to change Environment Variables SSDIR and SSINI to the correct one.

This happened to me because I changed Sourcesafe DB from place.
