You should not install Chandler's repository on a network drive. This is not 
supported. Ideally, your Chandler profile dir should be on a local drive. 
Its location is described here [1].

There are many configuration flags you can use to configure Chandler's 
installation so that, for example, your repository directory is put 
elsewhere than on a network drive.

In particular, you can edit (or create) a file called chandler.prefs in your 
profile directory and add this to it (if you already have a repository you 
care about, quit chandler, and move the __repository__ directory from 
your profile directory to the location you want) then set that location in 
chandler.prefs:

[options]
repodir=<path to the parent directory of __repository__>
