Hi Dan,
That file needs to be modified by hand to point to your current installation directory for Ciao. It should be something like:
@REM Change the CIAOINSTALLDIR path below to the absolute path of the application
@"CIAOINSTALLDIR\bin\Win32i86\ciaoengine.exe" %* -C -b "CIAOINSTALLDIR\library\javall\plserver.bat"
where CIAOINSTALLDIR would be the drive and path where Ciao is currently installed. Please tell us if this works for you (probably some relative paths are not correct).
The next release will fix this issue (the .bat file will be created with the right paths during installation).
Bests
