Question and Answer Database FAQ1702C.txt Download preview version installation of BDE Category :BDE Platform :All Product :BC++ 5.x Question: I downloaded the eight segments. Put the files in my Temp directory then ran the setup program. I read everything and set all the installation directories. After I pressed the Install button I reeived this dialog. C:\System\Data.1 General file transfer error. Please check your target location and try again. Error number -2 Answer: I downloaded the files into my c:\windows\temp directory and received the same error at installation. What I found was I had two TEMP variables assigned.(You can retrieve this information by typing SET at a DOS prompt.) Though c:\windows\temp was set in the first SET TEMP statement, the second statement defined c:\temp. I placed the files into the second directory and it installed fine. You could also edit your autoexec.bat file to contain the statement SET TEMP=C:\WINDOWS\TEMP. 7/2/98 10:32:32 AM
