Hi,
I moved eCos and tools and the sourcecode of project P2 to a new(er) pc 
(W7). Actually I had already done an eCos-related project P1 on this pc 
and hence, I know that everything is working, but P2 needs a (user 
written) package, not yet included in eCos:

- When adding this package with configtool>Tools>Administration and 
opening the corresponding epk-file, configtool does not report any 
errors, but the added package is still not part of ecos.

When performing this same operation with the same epk-file on the 
previous old PC, it works. There seems to be something missing on my new 
pc. But how to find out what?
Thanks for advice and best regards - Bob

Hi Bob

May be your installation lacks Tcl.  Try from cygwin bash prompt

  tclsh "${ECOS_REPOSITORY}"/ecosadmin.tcl list

if this works, then

  tclsh "${ECOS_REPOSITORY}"/ecosadmin.tcl add foo.epk

Hi Sergei,
In cygwin-terminal I get the following response:

rwb@w500 ~
$ tclsh ${ECOS_REPOSITORY}/ecosadmin.tcl list
ecosadmin error: parsing /home/rwb/c:/cygwin/opt/ecos/packages/ecos.db:
couldn't open "/home/rwb/c:/cygwin/opt/ecos/packages/ecos.db": no such 
file or directory

No idea why it adds /home/rwb/ in front of the correctly specified 
ECOS_REPOSITORY variable.

On the other hand, when changing to the packages directory - the list is 
printed out:

rwb@w500 ~
$ cd ${ECOS_REPOSITORY}

rwb@w500 /opt/ecos/packages
$ tclsh ecosadmin.tcl list
CYGPKG_HAL: current
CYGPKG_INFRA: current...<cut>

Any further advice to make it work also from configtool?
Thank you and regards - Bob

And what is about

  echo $ECOS_REPOSITORY

output in cygwin bash?

It seems that Tcl cannot read the variable, so it does try to calculate
the path (see lines 101-111 in ecosadmin.tcl)

And now, as you can see (lines 107-110) Tcl calculates the path from
this point properly.

IMHO, you have to set ECOS_REPOSITORY variable for Cygwin's
Bash, do you source any `ecosenv.sh' profile on a login?

Sorry, I have not Windows/Cygwin installed (above is my guess only).

I believe this is a regression related to the move to Cygwin tcl8.5
which is a "unix" build and does not understand Windows file paths.

A workaround would be to specify the location of the .epk file using a
POSIX-style file path at a Cygwin bash prompt:

   cd /opt/ecos/packages
   tclsh ecosadmin.tcl add /home/myUsername/myPackages.epk

Please raise a bug report against ConfigTool in bugzilla:
