Re: Template Toolkit on Windows 7
Geez, ask for a little help, and you get an encyclopedia ;-) Lots to chew on. Thanks Mike, Howard, Leo, and Martin. for the lessons. I did open a cmd prompt as administrator, and invoked ttree. This time when I told him to create the .ttreerc file, he dutifully did so at c:\, so I can now continue rolling the rock up the hill. best, /dennis Upcoming time off: none planned Dennis Daupert, PhD Software Engineer, Supplementary Applications Development Global Service Development & Deployment, Global Enterprise Services Management CSC GOS | o: 1.317.298.9499 | ddaup...@csc.com | www.csc.com This is a PRIVATE message.

The contents would be something like: @echo off C:\path_to_script\my_script.pl PAUSE Then right click on the BAT file, select Properties, select the Compatibility tab, check the "Run this program as an administrator" box.

RE: Template Toolkit on Windows 7
You said "when ttree tries to create his .ttreerc file the OS will not let him do so". As Leo was pointing out, this is probably a problem with authority. Running the Perl script as an administrator would probably help, but that's not a fix. The issue is probably that you don't have create authority to the folder where the script is creating the file. To fix this, you need to have administrator access to the PC where the script is running. Assuming you do, you can use cacls (from the command line) to grant yourself create authority to the folder (make sure you run cmd as administrator). Assuming you have administrator access, you can also use the graphical interface to do this (easier for beginners). Open Windows Explorer and navigate to the folder. Right-click the folder and select Properties, then select the Security tab. Since you probably need administrator authority to make changes to this folder, click Continue. Click Add, type in your Windows user name and click "Check Names". Assuming you entered the correct user name, the fully qualified name should be returned (e.g. COMPUTER\USERNAME). Click OK. Your user name should now appear in the list of authorized users. With your name highlighted, check off "Full control" in the Allow column. Click OK, then OK again and you should be back to Windows Explorer. Your script should now be able to create the file.

Template Toolkit on Windows 7
I've coded mostly on *nix machines, so hadn't run into this one before. On Windows 7, when invoking code that uses Template (for the first time), when ttree tries to create his .ttreerc file the OS will not let him do so. I tried creating an empty file of that name, thinking that Template could then populate it, but discovered the OS wouldn't allow me to do so, either. Pretty inhospitable, if you ask me. At any rate, how do I get through this one? best, /dennis Upcoming time off: none planned Dennis Daupert, PhD Software Engineer, Supplementary Applications Development Global Service Development & Deployment, Global Enterprise Services Management CSC GOS | o: 1.317.298.9499 | ddaup...@csc.com | www.csc.com This is a PRIVATE message.
