Are you already running the FME Server engine as a domain user with approriate rights on the share?
If the service is running as local admin, you'll have to reconfigure to use a domain user:

David, I have read through this and the
Directory and Account Permissions and am trying to understand the how it would apply to our environment. Our implementation is Windows Server 2012 R2 and all components are installed and running on a single server. We currently connect to other unc based resources as the local system account for reading and writing data using "server$".
We ended up resolving this issue. In the initial effort, access was only granted at a subfolder level. The issue was resolved by granting "list folder contents" at the root of the file share \\\\server-name\\drive$

Excellent. Thanks for sharing the solution.

Hi,
We (Vicrea) have a customer that had a similar Network Shared Resource issue. After installing FME Server with backup from 2016, the Network Share Shared Resource came up with the error: Path / does not exist for shared resource. All the known issues (domain User, rights on share, Service accounts etc.) checked but no solution found.
I tried to reproduce the issue in our environment by following the tutorials in https://knowledge.safe.com/articles/34522/fme-server-resources-uploading-referencing-and-con-1.html but al worked fine for me.
It was obvious an access problem and I searched in all Fme Server files, both the installation and resources for the MYDATA network shared resource I created.
In the fmesharedresource.log there was no MYDATA, but it showed up in the Safe Software\\FME Server\\resources\\logs\\tomcat\\localhost_access_log_.txt.
After I communicated this with the customer, they found in the \\tomcat\\localhost_access_log_.txt. a 404 error on their shared resource.
Changing the Tomcat Service to run under the Domain Account solved this issue!
Kind regards,
Krien Guijt
