Common Pitfalls
|
||||||
|
---------------
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- Wrong working directory::
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
"overviewer.exe" is not recognised as an internal or external
|
||||||
|
command, operable program, or batch file.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
This is a common mistake to make, especially for people unfamiliar
|
||||||
|
with the command line. This happens if your current working directory
|
||||||
|
does not contain overviewer.exe. This is likely because you've forgot
|
||||||
|
to change the working directory to the directory you have unzipped
|
||||||
|
overviewer into. Re-read Step 4 for instructions on how to do that.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- Overviewer is on a different drive than C:\
|
||||||
|
You may have Overviewer located on a different partition than C:,
|
||||||
|
and for some odd reason the windows command line does not accept
|
||||||
|
"cd D:\" as a way to switch partitions. To do this, you have to just
|
||||||
|
type the drive letter followed by a colon::
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
D:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
This should switch your current working directory to D:\
