Executable Creation Error Opening Data Entry Window

If you open a Data Entry Window and get the error, oracle.pharma.oc.dcapi.DataCaptureEngineException: Failed all attempts to create executable, the problem is probably that the path variable on the application server is too long. This is because every software product installed on the computer adds one or more entries to this variable. Most of these entries are not required.

To fix the problem, clean up the path variable, getting rid of all unneeded entries to bring the total length down to 100 characters or the minimum possible.

1. On your Windows application server, go to the Control Panel, then System and Security, then System, then Advanced System Settings, then the Advanced tab, then Environment Variables.
2. In the System Variables pane, scroll down to the Path variable and select it.
3. Click Edit. In the Variable Value field, edit the value by removing all unneeded values until the total length is less than 100 characters, if possible. Also remove any spaces in the path.
4. Click OK to close each window.
