Re: [WWWOFFLE-Win32] 2.5 crash problems under win98

[Steven Gabriels]

Hello Olivier,

I have just tried your version under NT 4.0 with succes!
Anyway, I encountered the problem that the file goes looking for
/wwwoffle/wwwoffle.conf but doesn't find it (the same for the spool
directory).
The solution is to change it into //c/wwwoffle/etc... by adding it in the
command line.
Jsut my 2 cents for other people strugling...

BTW: I already tried compiling the code myself last week but encountered the
various error messages apparnetly you were able to overcome.

Au revoir et Merci!

Steven.

I have also built wwwoffle 2.6 with cygwin (1.1.4) with the help of Andrew
Bishop, there are some light modifications to do to success. I have written
a
page on it at http://funix.free.fr/informatique/windows/wwwoffle.htm, I'm
sorry
it's written in French, but you can understand, I hope, the modifications I
have
done, on this page you can download my binaries.
