Re: Deployment wizard missing environment variables SQLANY16 and path

Hi Victor,

You are correct - this appears to be a bug in the SQL Anywhere 16 Deployment Wizard. As I have outlined on your question on the sqlanywhere-forum, there is a workaround available:

In the folder \Deployment in your original SQL Anywhere 16 installation, there is a file 'master.xml'. You will need to edit this file in a text editor:

Find the line:

<featureid="CMN"hidden="true">

and add the following text below it:

<featureid="CMN"hidden="true">

   <environmentname ="*=-SQLANY16"value ="[SQLANYDIR]."/>

   <registryroot ="HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE"path ="SOFTWARE\Sybase\SQL Anywhere\16.0">

       <keyname ="Location"value ="[SQLANYDIR]"/>

       <keyname ="Shared Location"value ="[SQLANYDIR]"/>

   <keyname ="Language"value ="[LANGUAGE]"/>

   </registry>

Just below that information, there are the lines:

<featureid="CMN32"hidden="true">

   <includeid="common_registry_entries_32"/>

Add the following text:

<featureid="CMN32"hidden="true">

   <includeid="common_registry_entries_32"/>

   <environment name = "*=-PATH" value = "[~];[SQLANYDIR]bin32" />

Below that, there are the lines:

<feature id="CMN64" deploy64="true" hidden="true">

   <include id="common_registry_entries_64" />

Add the following text:

<feature id="CMN64" deploy64="true" hidden="true">

   <include id="common_registry_entries_64" />

   <environmentname="*=-PATH"value="[~];[SQLANYDIR]bin64"/>

I have opened this issue for further investigation as CR #755094. Thank you for the bug report.
