I tried to install cupsgui.wpi on an eCS 2.1 system yesterday but when
double clicking on the file I received the attached error.

From the error message, I suppose that there exists also a CUPS package
that is required for the installation of cupsgui.wpi.

Well yes, the intention was to switch over from the old stand alone V1.4
to the rpm based version 2.1 installed & maintained using ANPM.

Clicking on warpin.exe shows a list of installed packages but (e)CUPS is
not there.
Clicking on CupsGui.wpi gives the error.
Clicking on any other *.wpi such as the cups-base-1_4_8.wpi, allows me
to install its contents or at least go further.

I don't know CUPSZWIZ but would it be worth opening a ticket requesting
an RPM build? Or is it mostly redundant?
Hi David
You could always try manually unpacking the wpi file using WPIView
available here https://trac.netlabs.org/vxapps - v1.1.0 works well.
RegardsYes, that's what I did initially to work round the problem but I would

Hi David,
As others have mentioned, cupswiz.wpi simply will not install unless
you have a WarpIN install of CUPS present.
The code that is triggering the error message you reported is:
TARGET="$(netlabs.org\eCups\CUPS)\cups"
which the .wis is using to determine where to install the cupswiz
files.
ArcaOS2 ships with a cupsgui.wpi which installs to
TARGET="$(WARPIN_DEFAULTTOOLSPATH)\cupsgui"
so it no longer depends on a CUPS WarpIN install.

for ArcaOS)
set PATH=%BEGINLIBPATH%\%PATH%
change to directory where cupsgui.wpi is located, usually in
\CID\SERVER\CUPS directory on installation CD-ROM and make a copy to say
c:\
wic -X c:\cupsgui.wpi c:\cupsgui.wis
modify c:\cupsgui.wis in the way Steve suggested
wic -s c:\cupsgui.wpi c:\cupsgui.wis
You can now start c:\cupsgui.wpi for installation
