David,

Do you get the first error before logging in ?
I had this 2 days ago, and there I had to rebuild the eventlogenvironment
in adataenv.vcx. After kicking the data access objuect out of the eventlogenvironment and putting it in again everything worked fine.

>I've copied classes.dbf, metadata.dbc, metadbc.dbf, mmdatenv.dbf, and >errorlog.dbf into the local directory to try to get it to work, and nothing.

If you work with applicationclasslUseDBCMgrMetaData = .T.
you will although need the metadbc.dbf in the local root Directory.
The entries there must point to the shared DBC.

If lUseDBCMgrMetaData = .F. it should work with INI file Information,
be shure that the INI file only contains the path, *NOT* the DBC.
I once had the DBC in the INI file, that really messes up everything :-)
