Hi Michel,

If profiling from a script or from the command line, please ensure that the
appropriate environment variables are set:
COR_ENABLE_PROFILING=1
COR_PROFILER=OIProfiler

More information about environment var options is found in the OI Profiler
1.1 for .NET pdf file at <OPTIT_HOME>/docs.

Hope this helps.

Regards,
- Will

Did you install it to something other than the default directory? I had
the same problem, but got it working when I re-installed using the
default directory.

Hmm...that can't be it.

I just un-installed and re-installed to another non-default directory,
and it's working. The only difference is that the initial directory I
installed to (the one that didn't work) had spaces in the path.

Hi David,

Yes, that might be the problem.  The installer has a screen that says
"Please enter a path that does not contain embedded spaces", although it's
sometimes been the case that users choose to install to the desktop (which
includes the path "Documents and Settings" if running on WinXP).

Thanks for the update.

Regards,
- Will

Note to self: Pay better attention to text on dialogs when installing
software :-)

That'll learn me for rapidly clicking the "Next" button in my haste <g>

No problems. You're welcome.
