PC*MILER-AS/400 MVS User’s Guide 22
NOTE: For Version 16 and 17 there are self-extracting Zip files specific to 16.0,
16.1, 17.0, and 17.1. Take great care not to mix up the versions of the base
PC*MILER (.0 or .1) and the version of the self-extracting Zip file that you use.
For example, V160MVS.exe is for use with V16.0 and V161MVS.exe is for use
with V16.1.
NOTE: Disk sets with both .0 and .1 releases of the same version will have
additional files. These files contain the letter ‘c’ in their names. For example,
V21cMVS.exe’s extraction location is set for C:\Program Files\Alk
Technologies\Pmw211 and is intended for use when installing both V21.0 and
V21.1 on the same PC. Starting with V24, both the .0 and .1 will install on the
same PC without extra installation steps.
NOTE: On 64 bit computers, use V23MVSx86.exe for Version 23.0 or 23.1, use
V24MVSx86.exe for Version 24.0 and V241MVSx86.exe for Version 24.1.
NOTE ALSO: You cannot run the .0 and .1 releases of version 14 and 15 on the
same PC. The .0 and .1 release of a given version share a common registry key
making it impossible to have both the .0 and .1 releases of v14 and v15 run on one
PC. You will need a second server to install the second release on. For Version
16 and higher it is possible to have both releases run on one PC but it does
complicate installation and maintenance. See Appendix J for details.
Step 2.3
Non-Default Installation Location Installs Only:
For PC*MILER 16.0 to 26.1 and all Tolls versions, you will have to edit each
version’s copy of pcmserve.ini to adjust for your actual installation location.
Starting with Version 27.0 this value will be automatically updated during the
installation.
Under the [Default] section, the DllPath key value has to point the App
subdirectory of that installation as below:
DLLPath=C:\Program Files\ALK Technologies\Pmw180\App
NOTE: Maintaining the same directory structure as much as possible eases
configuration and maintenance. For example, if you are installing to your D:\
Drive, install to D:\Program Files\ALK Technologies\Pmw180.
