I am having problems packaging a 64-bit plugin on a Windows 64-bit system.
The problem is this:
The package is a plugin for a Document-handling system for 64-bit Office running on a 64-bit Windows 7 systems.
After the plugin is installed, a shortcut is created (using the locally installed IE browser) to a locally hosted website running the iProva document-handling system.
From within that website, users are then able to retrieve and edit their documents.
For editing, the locally installed MS Office 2010 is used.
However, when running the X64-bit package the following error appears:
Obviously, the locally instlled WINWORD.EXE cannot be found.
I have tried many things and discovered the following.
Running SET from a prompt on the local 64-bit system gives these results:
ProgramFiles=C:\Program Files
ProgramFiles(x86)=C:\Program Files (x86)
Running cmd.exe from inside the Thinapp packaged however gives this:
ProgramFiles=C:\Program Files (x86)
ProgramFiles(x86)=C:\Program Files (x86)
So, for some reason, during the build, the %ProgramFiles%-system variable is changed.
For the record, I have tried both the X64- and X32-bit Internet explorer to start the browser to the website.
And, when running the Thinapp-application, the LOCAL system variable %ProgramFiles% still points to the right folder (C:\Program Files).
Does anyone know what causes this behaviour and how I can fix this???
