hey .. as u know iam trying to build my developing Wamp stack with hiawatha
https://code.google.com/p/whimp/
all is well and its working great the problem is am confined to extract the whole thing to C:\Program Files\
and this gives ppl with windows x64 version a proplem cause
they have program files(x86) and program files(x64) i wana end this for all and make it work in C:\
when i tried redirect the hiawatha.exe using notepad++ by simple deleteing all Program Files line and replacing it with something like this
C:\Program Files\Hiawatha to C:\Hiawatha
my stupid approach actually worked but when it started it erorr appears saying up access is denied for wiqwam.exe
i know this shouldnt be a concern to u or important i just wana hear ur opinion in all this


Hiawatha version: 7.4
Operating System: windows xp

what im saying basically is redirection works but i keep getting an error that
C:\whimp\bin\hiawatha.exe is not a valid windows application any thoughts ?
and when i run the testconfig.bat same thing happens its says wigwam is not a valid win32 application erorr ?
and on the console CMD screen it says wigwam access is denied

Editing an executable with a text editor is not the way to do it. If you want to change the Windows binary of Hiawatha, install Cygwin, download the source, apply your changes and recompile it via Cygwin by using:

./configure
make win
