-nwinstall, permanently- throws a new error

[Mike Lacy]

Hi Thomas,
I'm still running into a problem with -nwinstall-.  I just uninstalled, and reinstalled -nwcommands- and the associated help file.  When I tried -nwinstall-, with or without the -permanently- option, I get an error, in which the program complains it can't find the nwcorrelateattr.dlg file.    Can you fix this one?

Here's whatI happens in Stata:

Hi Mike,

the problem should be fixed now. However, notice that the default path for profile.do is changed back to sysdir_stata. The reason is that Stata actually recommends this location (and it solved some follow-up problems when the personal folder does not exist yet), but you can change it to your own personal folder using the path() option of nwinstall. I tested it on MacOSX, but will make sure it also works on Windows machines tonight. 

Run an adoupdate

. adoupdate, update all

And then 

. nwinstall, all

This should give you the "Network Analysis" menu bar under the "User" menu and access to all dialog boxes. 

Best,

Thomas
