Then I started the batch file setup.bat and selected mode 7. This started a lot of activity in a command window, which went on and on. I noted that this batch file somehow used my already existing FPC 2.4.2 installation, which I think it should not do. Anyway I went off to have dinner and meanwhile the script finished, but without leaving the window visible so one could see the end result. And there was no sign of any lazarus executable anywhere... So then I tried to modify the setup.bat file as follows: 1) Reset path such that the path to C:\Programs\fpc\2.4.2\.... would be removed, thereby making the existing fpc invisible to the setup script. 2) Add a pause at the end so that it is possible to still see what had been going on. Then I deleted the lazarus and pp folders the first run had created and ran the setup.bat file once more. Strangely after a while I noticed that STILL my existing FPC was used from my previous install from the windows installer.... How could the setup script find it????? And there were errors in the now remaining window, some of them here: Compiling .\source\core\ZClasses.pas ZClasses.pas(93,38) Fatal: Syntax error, ":" expected but "identifier IID" found Fatal: Compilation aborted make.exe[2]: *** [pl_zeosdbocomp.ppu] Error 1 make.exe[2]: Leaving directory `c:/lazarus/components/pl_ZeosDBO' make.exe[1]: *** [bigidecomponents] Error 2 make.exe[1]: Leaving directory `c:/lazarus/components' C:\pp\bin\i386-win32\make.exe: *** [bigidecomponents] Error 2 ---------------------------------------------------------- Strip Lazarus ---------------------------------------------------------- INFO: Lazarus.exe NOT EXIST !!! ... ??????????????????????????????????????????????????????
