Record #8018

Product Family: Software

Product Line: CPLD Implementation

Product Part: WebPACK Installers

Problem Title:
WebPACK: Window95/98 environment variables incorrectly overwritten on installation


Problem Description:
Urgency: Standard

General Description: The CPLD_Fitter and Programmer modules
for WebPACK incorrectly add the required path information to the
autoexec.bat file for Windows 95/98 systems.


Solution 1:

The CPLD_Fitter and Programmer modules for WebPACK incorrectly
add the required path information to the autoexec.bat file for
Windows 95/98 systems. Users should either backup their
autoexec.bat file before installing either module or choose
not to update the environment variables during installation.
Users who choose to update the environment during
installation will need to edit their autoexec.bat to restore
overwritten path statements if any. Users who choose not to
update the environment during installation will need to update
the autoexec.bat manually with the information stored in the
WebPACK_setup.bat file located in the WebPACK installation directory.
