Post won't update...

[Joe788]

Can anybody decipher this for me? This post updated from X3 to X4, and X4 to X5 with no problems. For some reason, it doesn't want to go into X6. The MD and CD updated just fine, but the post update is throwing the following:

[Guest]

do you have the pst & psb folders in the same folder?

 

Looks like it's looking for the .psb file

[Aaron Eberhard]

JParis is correct, it's missing the PSB...

Bullseye. You got it John.
