SYMPTOM:
In order to integrate a Microsoft SharePoint Portal 2003 with Strategy Web 8.1.x, one of the requisites is to install the Strategy portlet (Web Part). As described in the Strategy Developer Library (MSDL), the installation procedure involves running an executable to copy necessary files, contained in a .cab file. To install the Strategy portlet from this .cab file, Administrators must run 'stsadm.exe' from the command line using the following syntax:
cd $your_local_drive$\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\web server extensions\60\BIN
stsadm.exe -o addwppack -filename $your_location_of_cab_file$\MSTRWebParts.CAB
After running the second command, the following errors may be returned (in this example, $your_location_of_cab_file$ is the default path C:\Program Files\Strategy\SDK\DevelopmentKits\PortalIntegration\Portlets\MicrosoftSharePoint):
Command line error.
Cannot open "mstrwebparts.cab": no such file or folder.
CAUSE:
The program "stsadm.exe" only accepts a syntax in which $your_location_of_cab_file$ is either a variable, or a path previously defined in the Windows PATH.
ACTION:
In order to successfully deploy the Web Pars, place the $your_location_of_cab_file$ path plus the MSTRWebParts.CAB file name between double quotes, as shown below:
stsadm.exe -o addwppack -filename "C:\Program Files\Strategy\SDK\DevelopmentKits\PortalIntegration\Portlets\MicrosoftSharePoint\MSTRWebParts.CAB"
