Is the installer broken?

[Pete Helgren <pete@xxxxxxxxxx>]

I upgraded to 7.2 last week and decided to reinstall HTTPAPI.  I 
downloaded the latest from Scott's website and then ran the upload.bat 
batch file to upload the contents.  I saw multiple errors during the FTP 
phase and after some niggling around, found this as the possible problem 
in bat file:

echo quote site namefmt 0 >> %TEMPFILE%
echo quote crtl %LIB%>> %TEMPFILE%
echo quote crts file(%LIB%/qclsrc) rcdlen(92)>> %TEMPFILE%
echo quote crts file(%LIB%/qddssrc) rcdlen(92)>> %TEMPFILE%
echo quote crts file(%LIB%/qsrvsrc) rcdlen(92)>> %TEMPFILE%
echo quote crts file(%LIB%/qrpglesrc) rcdlen(112)>> %TEMPFILE%
echo quote crts file(%LIB%/qsh) rcdlen(124)>> %TEMPFILE%
echo quote crts file(%LIB%/qxmlgens) rcdlen(112)>> %TEMPFILE%
echo quote crts file(%LIB%/expat) rcdlen(112)>> %TEMPFILE%
echo quote crts file(%LIB%/qcmdsrc) rcdlen(92)>> %TEMPFILE%

I think that should be crtlib (not crtl) and crtsrcpf (not crts)

That wasn't enough though.  It can't find LIBHTTP even though it was 
created.   I think that line should be something like:
echo cd /QSYS.LIB/%LIB%.LIB>> %TEMPFILE%

But that wasn't enough because I got the following errors (and give up)

ftp> cd /QSYS.LIB/LIBHTTP.LIB
250 "/QSYS.LIB/LIBHTTP.LIB" is current library.
ftp> ascii
200 Representation type is ASCII nonprint.
ftp> put EXPAT.FILE/AMIGACON.H.MBR EXPAT.AMIGACON.H
200 PORT subcommand request successful.
501 Unknown extension in database file name.
ftp> quote rcmd chgpfm file(LIBHTTP/EXPAT) mbr(AMIGACON.H) srctype(C)
550-Error occurred on command chgpfm file(LIBHTTP/EXPAT) mbr(AMIGACON.H) 
srctype(C).
550 Member AMIGACON.H file EXPAT in LIBHTTP not changed..
ftp> put EXPAT.FILE/ASCII.H.MBR EXPAT.ASCII.H
200 PORT subcommand request successful.
501 Unknown extension in database file name.
ftp> quote rcmd chgpfm file(LIBHTTP/EXPAT) mbr(ASCII.H) srctype(C)
550-Error occurred on command chgpfm file(LIBHTTP/EXPAT) mbr(ASCII.H) 
srctype(C).
......(many, many more)

So it appears the the bat file is hinky or there is something more weird 
going on.  I'll go through the tedium of a more "manual" install but I 
though you might want to check the download and make sure all is well......
