Howto Debug Setup error?

Postby QooScho » Thu Mar 05, 2015 9:46 am

Hello
I have rebuild an old IA Project.
On the PC where IA IDE is installed (Windows 7 64bit) the Setup runs fine without Errors.

If I run the same Setup (Webbuild) on an other PC with Win7 64bit the Setup breakes with a message "Error". Not more
With this error message I have no Chance to look for the Problem.
So I tried to build in some message boxes

The error occurs between Messagebox Insta1 and MessageBox: Insta2, but I cannot see something wrong here?
I also tried to comment the EditFile but same error.

How can I debug this error better?
What could the Problem that Setup runs fine on one PC and other not?

...
Install Files C:\Popup\Sources\lib\pring.dll to $PROGDIR$

MessageBox: Insta1, Complete Copy files $PROGDIR$


end
Comment: TO-DO: Insert any additional install commands here
[compiler if Variable BUILDMODE Equals PATCH]
Apply Patch (get result into variable SUCCESS)
[compiler else]
if Variable ADVERTISE Equals TRUE
Apply Advertised (get result into variable SUCCESS)
else
Apply Install (get result into variable SUCCESS)
end
[compiler end]
Set Variable PROGRESS to 100
if Variable REMOVE Equals FALSE
Get Component Popup Selection State into Variable SELECTED
if Variable SELECTED Equals TRUE
MessageBox: Insta2, Edit file qdso
EditFile $PROGDIR$\Default.xml, Replace "DEFAULTSERVERADDRESS" with "$SERVERNAME$"
EditFile $PROGDIR$\Default.xml, Replace "DEFAULTSERVERPORT" with "$SERVERPORT$"




end
end

end


best regards
Hans

Dear QooScho,

Is your setup localised?

localized strings may cause problems if not exactly synchronized with the latest script code modifications.
You may try to re-generate all your localized strings and then re-import them back once again in your project.

Hope this helps you.
