Hi Pascal,

Thanks for that. I was trying to install the most recent AWS, the one from 
http://libre.adacore.com/download/configurations . So they should have 
been compatible.

Actually, I think I'm going to switch to Virtual Box 
(https://www.virtualbox.org/) and run under Linux on my Windows machine. 
Not just because it will make it easier to install AWS, but because it's 
compatible with what my colleage Graham Stark on our project is doing.

But just for the record, I've one more question. In my original mail to 
the list, I mentioned http://www.j-paine.org/installing_aws_for_xp.html , 
"Installing the Gnat Ada AWS Web development framework on Windows XP". 
That's a page I wrote in 2008 and updated in 2011. Is it still useful for 
people installing the latest AWS with the latest Gnat? From what you say, 
I suspect not. If so, could you suggest a few words I could add at the top 
telling those people where to go for advice?
