I have installed the STEPS Base and then downloaded a module. When I run the module Setup program, it just installs the Base again and not the module. What am I doing wrong?
v You should delete all the temporary installation and setup files from your temporary directory after installing the STEPS Base, before trying to download a module (and also after installing one module before downloading the next). This is because if you unzip a module installation archive, over the Base archive, some of the existing files from the Base installation are not overwritten by the ones of the same name belonging to the module. This particularly applies to setup.exe, and means that the Setup program tries to install the Base again. The same confusion happens if you unzip one module archive over another. The solution is to ensure that the temporary directory is emptied after installing one item before downloading the next one.
