Unlikely but possible...
If the "set PATH" command is the only one in your AUTOEXEC
it may be confused because you are appending %PATH% which will
initially be empty.  If this is the case you should be able
to fix it by changing the line to
     set PATH=C:\DJGPP\BIN
I don't think that this is it as the OS appears to be able
to find its way to the BIN directory (to start up and
report the error) but there may be some strange interaction
going on.  Null %PATH% is not a problem for me (Novell DOS 7
or PC DOS 6.3).

Otherwise;
     Install a fresh copy of DJGPP.ENV
or
     Make sure it is where it should be
     DIR C:\DJGPP\DJGPP.ENV
     Is this a file of the correct size?
