• Error with WarpIn install of CUPSWIZ

    From David Parsons@21:1/5 to All on Mon Jul 15 15:52:26 2019
    This is a multi-part message in MIME format.
    Hello all,

    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.
    Further checking on other partitions/systems showed that the problem is
    related to whether eCups is currently installed on that system.

    I suspect that the WarpIn database is probably corrupt.
    So the question is does anyone know how to reset the database safely so
    that I can install CUPS Wizard on this partition?

    Cheers,
    Dave P.

    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.

    Why don't you install the old crap along with the GUI, deinstall the old
    crap and reinstall with RPM ?

    I don't know CUPSZWIZ but would it be worth opening a ticket requesting
    an RPM build? Or is it mostly redundant?

    I think I should expand on this reply a bit.

    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.

    It looked like a good idea but unfortunately it didn't work.
    The re-installation worked successfully but the de-installation failed
    with the same error message as before.

    I tried the "Remove all database entries" but it didn't make any difference.

    If everything else fails you can extract the installation script from
    the cupsgui.wpi archive, remove the prerequisite section from it (that
    points to the cupsbase package) and then readd the installation script
    to cupsgui.wpi.
    For this you either have to read the WarpIn programmer's Guide and
    Reference (in the same directory as warpin.exe) and do it yourself or
    post the installation script and I can try to do it.

    See "wic.exe -?" from a commandline to see how to extract and readd the installation script.

    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.

    I think I should expand on this reply a bit.

    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.

    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.

    I don't know CUPSZWIZ but would it be worth opening a ticket requesting
    an RPM build? Or is it mostly redundant?

    I don't use CUPS on OS/2, but the latest version seems to be distributed
    in a .zip file here: <http://www.altsan.org/os2/printing/#cupswiz>. Unfortunately the link to version 1.18 doesn't work. I would contact
    Alex on that.

    Or is cupswiz also integrated in a cups .rpm package?

    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.

    Hi all,

    Alex has fixed his site, so

    http://www.altsan.org/os2/printing/ecups/cupswiz_118.zip

    is now available.

    Assuming you have an RPM install of CUPS, I suspect that cupswiz
    should be ready to run once you unzip the package and follow the
    installation instructions.

    Yes, that's what I did initially to work round the problem but I would
    like to get it working correctly again.

    set BEGINLIBPATH=c:\ecs\install\warpin (assuming you have eCS but check
    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

    OK, understood. Thanks for the explanation.
