VC Package not available

[mspence8]

I have downloaded and installed Intel Visual Fortran (IA-32 version) and am trying to get this to work with Microsoft Visual Studio 2003. The installation completes without errors and the Intel Visual Fortran product shows up as an installed product below the MVS 2003 IDE. However, when I try to create and add a new Fortran static library project to a solution using the Add New Project wizard (which properly shows Intel Fortran Projects with Static Library, Dynamic-link Library, etc templates as one would expect), the wizard fails after the wizard Finish button is pressed with the error message "VC Package not available". I have ensured that the license file sent to me from Intel matches the license file that was automatically created during the installation process and I have ensured that the environment variables are set properly but the problem persists. How can I properly register the Intel Fortran package within MVS 2003 IDE to get this running properly?

Try the following. Open the folder C:Program FilesIntelDownloadIntelFortranCompiler10.1Installs. Find the file w_ide_p_10.1.xxx.exe (where xxx is a three-digit version number) and run it. It will probably suggest modify, repair or uninstall. Uninstall it. Then repeat the process to install. Let me know what happens.

Steve,

Thanks for your quick response. I ran the w_ide_p10.1.025_IA32.exe installer and completed the uninstall. I then ran the same installer and selected a complete install. The problem still persists where *.f files have the compile option greyed out when right clicked and the new Fortran project wizard results in the same error message.

Additional Info:

I have Compact Visual Fortran 6 installed on this XP system for use with my older MSVC6 build environment. Is it possible that this older app's presence is causing problems? As a test, I tried to run the ..FORTRAN10.1.025IA32Binfortcom.exe from the command line. I receive the following error message:

Compiler driver / backend version mismatch: unset != 1010

Be sure compiler driver and backend programs are in the same directory.

Any additional help here is appreciated

CVF being installed is not a problem.

Running fortcom.exe that way is not supported and won't do anything useful.

Please download the attached file and run the executable it contains. Paste the output into a reply.

I was able to successfully install and run the product on another XP machine soI have been able to proceed with my project. However,I would still like to understand why it is not working on the machine with Compact Visual Fortran.

Here is the output from the machine that is not working:

That output all looks ok, so the problem is somewhere else. At this point it might work best if we could connect to your system and look to see how things are set up. Please open an Intel Premier Support issue and ask that it be assigned to Steve Lionel. I'll be in touch.
