[cw-discuss] cxmessage: not found error when trying to install CX 6.2

[Jeremy White]

Hi Brian,

For the trial, it's probably better to install cxoffice
to your home directory.  That would involve not running
it as the root user, and putting it in ~/cxoffice.

You might check ~/cxoffice to make sure there is nothing
there as well.

Cheers,

Jeremy
