[JIRA] Commented: (SSPCPP-498) Hardcoded path in XMLTooling is invalid on localized WinXP/2003

    [ https://issues.shibboleth.net/jira/browse/SSPCPP-498?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=14350#comment-14350 ] 

Scott Cantor commented on SSPCPP-498:
-------------------------------------

That's unfortunate.

You can modify the catalog files to point anywhere you need them to, and you can set SHIBSP_SCHEMAS to point to the catalogs and it should work fine. Whatever you did as a workaround wasn't a complete correction.

I'll see what I can do and publish updated installers if I can come up with a workaround that doesn't involve a code change. I may need to you to test that.
