The error is coming from filePro, so it's running dreport.  The problem is 
not the path to dreport, but the path(s) to the filePro files.

What are PFDATA, PFDIR, and PFDSK set to?

Also, I see two different spellings for "roomTags" and "roomtags".  While 
Windows filenames are not case-significant, perhaps the network server is? 
(Note that this may not be related to the error.)
