Hi Ted,<br>
I've used the ADMB-IDE, but had not yet used the default installation
on a federal computer. I had to run the ADMB-IDE installer as an
administrator and the only issues I faced came when I then tried to run
the IDE as a non-administrative user. <br>
<br>
When I ran the ADMB-IDE using an administrative account, opening the
simple.tpl example and clicking the "Run" icon in the IDE indeed
resulted in the error, "'simple' is not recognized as an internal or
external command,operable program or batch file.", but that was only if
I didn't build first. When I clicked the "Build" icon, it worked fine,
ending with a message like, "Compilation finished at Mon Jun 28
14:42:22" after which I could successfully "Run" without error.<br>
<br>
However, in an effort to follow my normal pattern of working as a
non-administrative user, I faced problems. As Arni has noted in the
past, the User Variables don't get changed for non-administrative
users. Thus, opening the IDE without manually adding all the User
Variables that you note below, it simply opens as a normal Emacs
installation without any of the ADMB-related features. After manually
adding the User Variables, the IDE loaded properly, but unfortunately
when I tried to Build a model, I got an error<br>
<blockquote>tpl2cpp.exe has encountered a problem and needs to close.
We are sorry for the inconvenience.<br>
</blockquote>
I don't know if these problems are somehow related to the configuration
of federal computers, or just any setup with a non-administrative user.
Either way, it would be good to get things working, but I'm afraid
we'll need Arni's advice on what to try next.<br>

<pre wrap="">After getting a new computer for work, I installed the admb-ide-440-2.exe
installer and things seemed fine, but when I tried to run an instance of a
project that had been compiled and run before (just copied the .tpl and
.dat file to a new folder), I get the following error at the run:
'wfm02_2009' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.
I read through the articles in the list serve that I could find concerning
this, but nothing jumped out at me..
I have walked through the checking of the environment variables with a
buddy at a different place to make sure that I have the equivalent that he
does, but feel that I must be missing something.
In User Variables, I have
ADMB_HOME c:\ADMB\gcc440
HOME c:\~
INCLUDE c:\admb\gcc440
LIB c:\admb\gcc440
PATH c:\admb\gcc440\bin; c:\gnu\gcc\bin; c:\gnu\gdb\bin;
c:\gnu\emacs\bin
I thought I remembered having to tinker with something in the System
Variables part of the Env Variables last time I did an install, but cannot
remember what it was and we could not find anything corresponding to admb
in System variables on my colleagues computer.
I have tried the install twice (removing all signs of ADMB in between) but
to no avail. I am not sure if there is something on the federal IT system
that is blocking it from creating the .exe file, but the furthest it gets
is creating a .cpp and .htp files. When I try and run an old project with
a already created .exe file, it works just fine.
Can anyone help me out or let me know what kind of questions I should be
asking my IT folks?
Thanks a bunch..
