Works fine here. Are you sure that the file is correctly named? If yes, please provide configuration details, such as:

  • nginx.conf,
  • results of dir z:\ and dir z:/certificates,
  • information about the network drive you are using,
  • information about operating system you are using.

My best guess for now is that you are using some exotic network drive which doesn't handle GetLongPathNameW() properly.

ok, whoops, user error. having used windows for decades it has escaped me now that drive mappings are not system wide but scoped to a user context. so when i ran as "administrator", all of the accesses failed that which in my user explorer I could see so easily. thanks for you patience and please close this ticket out.
