S07000

## Error Message {#error_message .section}

`[IMOLTP] Failed to start service: Invalid redo file path [...]: A directory with the same name already exists. RefId: S07000`

## Probable Causes {#probable_causes .section}

The *IMOLTPRedoFilePath* parameter in the configuration file specifies the path where the redo log files of the OLTP system are stored \(note that it is a path, not a directory\). This error occurs when the specified path shares the same name with an existing directory.

## Solutions {#solutions .section}

Modify the *IMIMOLTPRedoFilePath* parameter or delete the directory with the same name.
