Martin, I've read what you wrote again. My answer doesn't seem to match your problem.

AFAIR, the temp dir entries in CONFIG.SYS are added by the installation of ArcaOS. At least that's what I remember for eCS.

I guess that should be added to the prerequisites. I would create an entry in the bug tracker, because AFAIR, also non-ArcaOS systems are supported with ANPM.

Hi Travis,

    Thanks for the link.  I have read that page, and the software section.  Maybe I'm missing something, but none of the information seems to help my particular situation.

What are the specifics of what you are seeing?

I ask b/c on the surface (symptom wise) it may look like the same issue Martin had, details may tell a different story.

Hi

My issue seem to was that on a plain OS/2 Warp 4.52 VM, just by installing WarpIN 1.0.22, kLIBC Pathrewriters, 1.0.2 and ANPM 1.04, was not was enough to RPM/YUM and ANPM to run fine.
I did other config.sys tweaking for it to work, but I can not recall the exact steps. I had to set all the unixroot stuff, home, temp, etc and tweak that until it worked.

I will need to do the same experiment again to see what was missing on the config.sys.

Hi

I tried it again to get the same error.

The plain VM with OS/2 has on its config.sys:
- SET ETC=C:\MPTN\ETC
- SET TMP=C:\TCPIP\TMP

On my plain OS/2 Warp 4.52 (14.106) I installed WarpIn 1.0.22 and klibccfg_1_0_2_1.exe
It only installed this on my config.sys
   SET LIBC_HOOK_DLLS=C:\OS2\DLL\klibccfg.dll@_kLIBCInitPath!pathrewrite
On the last line of the disorganized config.sys.
klibccfg.dll got copied on c:\OS2\DLL
- Reboot.

Now I run ANPM 1.0.4 exe installer
- supported libraries got installed on C:\OS2\APPS\DLL
- Reboot

Time to run ANPM
- Tells me that YUM/RPM are not installed.  Clicked Yes, selected i686
- Downloading file.  (rpm-yum-base-os2-i686-2019-08-24.exe)
- "Select base Path" - Selected C:
- Tells me that config.sys is changed. Press ok
- REXXAPI.DLL Error shows up. (Click end) (attached pic)
- Reboot

Run ANPM again
- It tells me that I don't have RPM/YUM and I get stuck in the ANPM loop asking me to reboot and tell I don't have RPM/YUM.

I got again to the same issue. Now I will tweak the config.sys again and put some attention.

Regards

Hi

Next. I Removed from the config.sys
SET TMP=C:\TCPIP\TMP

and set at the end. (directories where already created with the RPM/YUM install attempt)
SET TMP=C:\var\temp
SET TEMP=C:\var\temp
SET TMPDIR=C:\var\temp
SET HOME=C:\Home
SET USER=Martini
SET UNIXROOT=C:

Added at the end of path ",:C:\USR\LOCAL\BIN;C:\USR\SBIN;C:\USR\BIN;" and libpath ".;C:\usr\local\lib;C:\usr\lib;"
- Reboot

Run ANPM and it gets angry. Yes, angry.  :D
- It tells me to fix my config.sys. I select "yes"
- Reboot

Run ANPM and it works.
- I did a "Yum Update All" and it starts updating all the stuff.

I'm still updating the files see if RPM/YUM and ANPM are working fine. I will install all firefox dependencies and try firefox 45.

Regards
