[Download-List] does location of DOWNLOAD.SOURCE matter when cloning?

[Johnson, Keith M]

Dave,
As long as your VOC pointers for DOWNLOAD are all relative not absolute path defined you are ok.

...even if they are fully defined it can be fixed easily with a prestore edit or modify command.  Relative will make it so you do not have to fix them each time you clone.

Subject: [Download-List] does location of DOWNLOAD.SOURCE matter when cloning?

Hello,

I am a datatel school and I successfully installed the DOWNLOAD utility into one of our test colleague enviroments.  i ran CREATE.FILE DIR DOWNLOAD.SOURCE after running udt from the .../apphome directory and the data and dict entries were created off of .../apphome. i installed and ran tests and it works.  however, the apphome directory is part of what gets cloned.  if i were to do the same thing in our production environment and we cloned it would this cause a problem?

I'm thinking I'd be ok because DOWNLOAD.SOURCE's VOC entry has no absolute path, but I want to be sure before I install in production. or maybe DOWNLOAD.SOURCE files don't even get touched after installation in which case i'd think it really doesn't matter.

Here'e the VOC entry for DOWNLOAD.SOURCE.

:ELE VOC DOWNLOAD.SOURCE
3 lines long.

>>>>: P
0001: DIR
0002: DOWNLOAD.SOURCE
0003: D_DOWNLOAD.SOURCE
Bottom at line 3.

Thanks for any help!
