Hi Alan,
Have you tried re-starting RDi with a -clean?
You can right-click on the start icon, select properties and go to the "Target" entry and press the end key and add a space and -clean, then press OK. Just remember to remove the -clean or RDi will take longer to restart each time.

Subject: [WDSCI-L] Show stopping editor error opening source member: Specified working directory not found.
First, I have RDi 9.6, my Java is very up to date...
I have an editor issue, trying to open a member for edit (or browse) in RDI, I get an error message instead, "Specified working directory not found." For several different source members.
Tried quitting RDi then re-launching, nope.
Tried uninstalling RDi and reinstalling, Nope.
Tried creating a new workspace to work in. Nope.
Then tried deleting the old workspace directory to see if the new one would now work. Nope
Then I tried deleting the new (and now only) workspace directory and re-launch. (The welcome page was funny but) Nope.
Then I tried posting a message to the IBM RDi forum, and here we are, seeing if anybody has a solution to this. (Licensing is not an issue)
And now, I am cross posting the above list of "I already did this" to this midrange list.
