Issue/Introduction

%1 is not a valid Win32 application."" />

Description:

When running setupwin32.exe to install the Unicenter Workload Control Center, I receive the following error:

"CreateProcess failed ==> %1 is not a valid Win32 application."

Solution:

This error was a result of the Windows environment variable TEMP being set to a value unknown to the ISMP installer (in this case the value was %TEMP%).

To correct this value:

1. Start -> Settings -> Control Panel -> System -> Advanced -> Environmental Variables.
   
   
2. Set the value for TEMP to a real directory on the machine:
   
   C:\temp (as an example.)
   
   
3. Then retry the command.

Environment
