[Mono-list] monobasepath.bat Environment Variable Problem

[JD Conley]

Title: Message

In a default Windows installation of Mono I noticed an issue with the monobasepath.bat file (put in the Windows directory by the install).  It sets up the environment variables with quotes around them by default.  This causes the Mono runtime to search for the machine.config file in a location that does not exist.  It also incorrectly sets up the path for the config directory.

 

Here is what the file looked like when it was installed:

 

set MONO_BASEPATH="C:\Program Files\Mono-0.25"
set MONO_PATH="C:\Program Files\Mono-0.25\lib"
set MONO_CFG_DIR="C:\Program Files\Mono-0.25\etc\mono"

 

Here is what it should look like in order to function properly:

 

set MONO_BASEPATH=C:\Program Files\Mono-0.25
set MONO_PATH=C:\Program Files\Mono-0.25\lib
set MONO_CFG_DIR=C:\Program Files\Mono-0.25\etc

 

I haven't looked into the code for the installer so I'm not sure what to do to fix it.  But hopefully someone can.  :)  Not being able to find the machine.config was causing issues with the XML DOM when trying to load documents from a local file.

 

Thanks,
