[CMake] cmake 2.6.1: CPACK_NSIS_MODIFY_PATH has no effect

[Markus Israelsson]

Hello,

I guess you are running the installer as administrator and also tried
restarting the operating system after installing. If I remember
correctly I sometimes needed to restart the operating system for path
changes to take effect with default NSIS script. I do not remember
exactly with which version of Cmake, could be 2.4.8 or any of the 2.6.x
versions.

I've created an NSIS based installer by using the Cpack module in a
CMakeLists.txt file, and have tried the CPACK_NSIS_MODIFY_PATH setting
to add the installation path to PATH automagically.

When I run the installer, I see the appropriate page (with the "add to
this user/all users" questions) but the path is never added, regardless
of which option I select.

This is with cmake 2.6.1 and NSIS 2.44, running on Vista with SP1.

Any ideas what could be wrong ?
