Hello,

I am trying to port back my 1.8 mod to 1.7.10 and am having trouble with the config file's directory. Whenever I try to run my 1.7.10 version and it reaches this line of code in preInit:

Configuration config = new Configuration(event.getModConfigurationDirectory());

it prints out a stack trace with this exception:

java.io.FileNotFoundException: C:\Users\<name>\OneDrive\<workspace>\<mod> 1.7.10\config (Access is denied)

I don't understand why this is happening because my 1.8 version is in the same directory (except in a <mod> 1.8 folder) and doesn't have any problems.

I had both my 1.8 and 1.7.10 versions print out event.getModConfigurationDirectory(), so I know that they are both going in the correct directories to find their configs, so that's not the problem.

As far as I can tell, both config folders have the same access permissions as well.

 

config = new Configuration(event.getSuggestedConfigurationFile());

Haha, that simple change fixed it! Thank you very much!
