Hello all,
I have installed both 16.6 and 17.2 versions of SPB in my machine and I need to switch between them, and I'm facing problems in the environment variables of each version as they are interfering one in each other's version.
Usually it's not a problem to the environment variables of each version, since the variables are also switched as the software version is switched - environment variables of one version don't interfere in the variables of the other version if there's no special env variable setup.
However, my SPB 16.6 installation has a different setup - All of it's environment variables point to network folders which contain files and libraries of this 16.6 version. And when I install SPB 17.2, all of it's 17.2 environment variables point to the same folders (network directories) as do the correspondent variables of the 16.6 version, in addition to the default installation directories of the 17.2 version.
Well, one the problems that I'm facing is in the following env variables: MENUPATH - I have to switch between the priorities of the directories of each version everytime I switch between the SPB version, since this variable is related to menu icons - If I don't switch between the priorities of the directories, the 16.6 version shows some menu icons of the 17.2 version and vice-versa; FORMPATH - I have to do the same for this variable, although I'm not sure if it causes the same problem as the MENUPATH environment variable does if I don't switch between the directories priorities.
Another problem that I'm facing is that some default installation directories, previously added to some env variables, are getting lost in these env variables.
Does anyone have an idea on how to separate the environment variables of each version when I switch between them even if I have a previous env variable setup for one version?
Basically, the env variable setup previoulsy made to the 16.6 version was done through the CDS_SITE system variable.
I'm attaching a picture as a reference.
Any help will be appreciated.
Gustavo
