Sara,
["@PATH" seems to have nothing to do with the DOS Path, by the way!]
You can change the DOS Path in the "ENV" of your Telnet session (see below),
but this doesn't seem to stick if you "DOS" out from your UniVerse session [
I end up with "Path=C:\Program"! - note abrupt truncation at first space,
path was "Path=C:\Program Files\Support Tools\; ..." before I DOS'ed !! :-<
]
Oh dear, this seems like another manifestation of the problem of passing
spaces into the DOS environment.
Denver say this is fixed in 10.0.21 (which we haven't seen yet), so I guess
probably in 10.1.1 as well
Holding / setting / saving your DOS Path
* You'd need a Basic Program, run in your LOGIN paragraph
* The program would
- "EXECUTE 'ENV' CAPTURING Env.Stuff", then
- parse out the "Path=..." line from Env.Stuff into, say,
Env.Path, then
- Env.Path := ';c:\ibm\uv\bin', then
- "EXECUTE 'ENV SET PATH='":Env.Path:" CAPTURING Env.Stuff"
* This will change your DOS path
* I'd be inclined to save the Env.Path in COMMON somewhere so you can re-set
it later if you need to

Subject: UV on W2K3 - trying to add to path
We are starting our evaluation of running UniVerse on W2K3. To get a feel
of what it will be like and to scope the learning we need to do we have set
up a totally isolated W2K3 server (PDC) and have installed the personal
version of UniVerse while we wait for an NT version from IBM.
I added to the System Environment variables an extension to the PATH =
c:\IBM\UV\BIN
Problem - we do not get this in our telnet session. It is fine in a cmd
session from the server but is missing from the telnet session. Can anyone
explain how we add this on an NT platform. Universe was installed as
Administrator and we have even tried using Administrator as the user in the
telnet session but that did not show the extra path. Our personal user
accounts are in the Admin group.
I can add this within my session as PATH=%path%;c:\ibm\uv\bin and it works.
However this is lost next time.
I can see this is going to be an interesting learning curve for our DBAs
(Oracle and UniVerse) who have UNIX skills but little exposure to NT apart
from using a desktop. I will be on leave tomorrow (Friday) so I will see if
I can get the digest sent to me at home.
Thank you in anticipation
