#2 problems when installing Octave /Win32

[Anonymous]

Hi!

I've a problem running the win32 version
(octave-windows-2000oct25c.exe)
from www.sourceforge.net/projects/matlinks (there is a
link in
www.octave.org).

When running the installer under Windows 98 it seems to
run fine,
creates
the icons , etc. but when I try to run octave (by
clicking the icons
which
runs octave.bat)

I got the message: (in Spanish)

Comando o nombre de archivo incorrecto
Ruta no valida o no existe el directorio
o el directorio esta lleno

which means:

command or file name wrong
invalid path or file not found
or directory is full

As I think there should be some error in octave.bat I'm
sending to you a copy of this file:

@echo off
:: ..generated by GNU Octave setup.bat
if not exist \tmp\nul mkdir \tmp
"119 05/04/01 18.51 Directory.bat\bin\bash" --login
start
rd \tmp

Also could not found an executable octave.exe anywere
on my disk. I've
tried to run the installer on two different machines,
and the same
thing
happend both times.

Please help me. I'm trying to convince some Win32 users
to use octave
instead of Matlab (to promote free software), but if
they cannot
install
it they will say that octave is difficult to install or
buggy. (I'm
using
it on Win32).

Thank you
