Nmake errors on deployment server

Has anyone seen where busbuild or update package cant compile bsfns saying
cant find nmake.exe. I have verified all paths, jde.ini, environment
variables, can type CL in command prompt and compiler comes up. I am
running out of options, any suggestions?

Jamie, I was bitten by something similar recently. In your JDE.INI you have a section that looks something like this:

MAKEDIR=c:\Progra~1\Micros~1\Common\Tools\WinNT;c:\Progra~1\Micros~1\Common\MSDev98\Bin;c:\Progra~1\Micros~1\Common\Tools;c:\Progra~1\Micros~1\VC98\bin

What may be biting you in the butt is the Micros~1 section. Verify that if you drop to a command prompt and "CD" to the path *exactly* as it appears in the jde.ini that you wind-up in the Visual Studio folder, not Front Page, or something else. If you wind-up in the wrong area, keep modifying the ~1 (2,3,4. . .) until you get where you need to be, then go back and modify the jde.ini to match. Hope this helps!

Can you type "nmake" at a CMD prompt?

I have been bitten by the same thing a few times.

As a shortcut you can also use DIR /X at the command prompt and you will be presented with the "8.3" directory names that you should use.
