Bugs item #910515, was opened at 2004-03-05 20:58 Message generated for change (Comment added) made by bluesmoon You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=550744&aid=910515&group_id=77614 Category: Windows Port Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Submitted By: Lyle Hanson (lhanson) Assigned to: Edward L. Haletky (elh) Summary: Cannot open modules directory Initial Comment: I'm running Ayttm 0.4.6-1 on Windows 2000 Professional. My first attempt at running Ayttm on this box gave the error message "Cannot open modules directory 'modules'". Eventually I reinstalled Ayttm and it seemed to work. The next day, I booted up the machine and tried to start Ayttm and got the same error message. I've verified that C:\Program Files\Ayttm\Modules exists and seems to be accessible. Let me know if you need any further information or testing from me. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Philip S Tellis (bluesmoon) Date: 2004-05-07 13:39 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=341836 IMO, this is a bug. If everything is installed as default, then ayttm should know where the modules directory is installed. The prefs file must contain the correct location by default ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Lyle Hanson (lhanson) Date: 2004-03-06 01:55 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=284964 Okay, that did the trick. Hidden folders. I haven't had to use Windows for quite a while ;) Anyway, is this a bug? Has it been fixed in CVS? Thanks for your help! ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Jonathan Berry (plasmoidia) Date: 2004-03-06 00:18 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=895021 Oh, yeah, it is a hidden folder. Either show hidden folders by going to Tools->Folder Options on the View tab, or you can just type it into the address bar: C:\Documents and Settings\<myuser>\Application Data\AYTTM ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Lyle Hanson (lhanson) Date: 2004-03-05 23:46 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=284964 Hmm, I don't have an "Application Data" folder in C:\Documents and Settings\myuser\. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Jonathan Berry (plasmoidia) Date: 2004-03-05 22:53 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=895021 Hi, Open up your "C:\Documents and Settings" folder and go into your user's folder. From there, go to "Application Data\AYTTM" In this folder you will find a file named "prefs" Open the file using Notepad or Wordpad (it has no extension, so you will have to select a program to open it with). There should be a line that says something like: modules_path=modules Change this line to read: modules_path=\Program Files\Ayttm\modules Save and close the file and then run Ayttm again and see if it works.
