Getting this error when I attempt to start the server. Looked at the dedicated server path, the CMD, and the save world path, all look fine but I'm obviously missing something.

The error doesn't tell me WHICH directory I need to focus on, anybody know which one it's referring to?
 
Please screenshot the error, that'll help me figure out when the error is happening. Look in your game server log folder, send the most recent 'output_log' file as well.
 
Ok, attached is the screenshot of the original error.
Also, when I try to click "Game Server Logs" I get another error, also attached.

Here's the details on that one. I'm thinking I need to start over and try re-installing the latest version.

To enable just-in-time (JIT) debugging, the .config file for this

jitDebugging value set in the system.windows.forms section.
The application must also be compiled with debugging

</configuration>

When JIT debugging is enabled, any unhandled exception

Uninstalled RAT3 and got rid of all folders associated with the install. Installed RAT4 beta and I'm still seeing the same errors. (attached)

The first error about the folder path happens when I try to start the server. The second error happens when I try to get to the Logs as you instructed. The errors.txt are the details of that second error.

Update, I fixed it. I made the dumb, class mistake of uninstalling the previous version without restarting the computer it's on. (slap own forehead) After I PROPERLY uninstalling RAT4 (because I didn't restart after uninstalling RAT3), restarting and installing RAT4 again, the program itself and logs are running just fine without any of the errors I reported previously. This one is resolved.

Tested and works perfectly. Thanks so much for all your hard work. I love popping back in after a few months taking a break and seeing what new patches bring and using your dedicated server app to keep things organized and more easily configured. LOVE YOUR APP.
