Monitor complains to run from c:\morph3

Post by carsten.harnisch1 »

I installed the texis-daemon and the monitor-service on a win2k box.
All the texis stuff was installed to d:\apps\texis\morph3. All reg-entries were set accordently.
However when firing a statement to the daemon it complains to start the monitor from c:\morph3. How to let this point to the installation folder ?

It appears that texisdnt does not look at the registry to find the install location. You can workaround that by patching the executable, e.g.

gwpatch -pd:\apps\texis\morph3 texisdnt.exe

gwpatch should be part of the Texis and webinator distribution. If you don't find it you could use rex to achieve the same result.

nop, no gwpatch here.
Here is my version string :
D:\apps\MORPH3>texis -version
Texis Web Script (Vortex) Copyright (c) 1996-2001 Thunderstone - EPI, Inc.
Commercial Version 3.01.992447526 of Jun 13, 2001 (i686-intel-winnt-32)

I assume there is some never version ? Could you please post me the syntax for the rex ! I tried :
rex -x -Rd://apps//morph3 c://morph3 texisdnt.exe

Anyway, how updates are handled ? Can we get a never version of texis ?

-x will prevent rex from doing anything. It'll just show you the parsed expression.

backup texisdnt.exe before patching it with rex.

rex -Rd:\\apps\\texis\\morph3 c:\\morph3=\x00{11} texisdnt.exe

Then check that texisdnt.exe is the same size as your backup copy.
