KIS000609 - Bldmake fails with "EPOCROOT environment variable must be capitalised" error

bldmake fails with "EPOCROOT environment variable must be capitalised" error		KIS000609
Overview	In some environments, the bldmake command may fail with the "EPOCROOT environment variable must be capitalised" error.
Category	Symbian C++
Subcategory	SDK & Tools
Reported against	S60 2nd Edition S60 3rd Edition
Date identified	March 30, 2007
Symptoms	-
Detailed description	This error is returned by the e32env.pm script when opening a pipe to the command line fails.
How to reproduce	-
Solution	Typically this error is related to the PATH environment variable. bldmake fails if the system32 directory in the PATH is defined using the SystemRoot variable, that is %SystemRoot%\system32 To fix this, modify the PATH to use an absolute path for \system32. For example, C:\Windows\system32 Note: With current S60 SDKs (2nd Edition and later), EPOCROOT should not be explicitly defined. Instead, the active development configuration is selected with the devices.exe utility.
