Subject: nsis: Nsis creates non-functional installers.
Message-ID: <20060730135832.9888.53320.reportbug@molly>
X-Mailer: reportbug 3.18ubuntu1
Date: Sun, 30 Jul 2006 15:58:32 +0200
Package: nsis
Version: 2.06-6
Severity: important
When I run the Linux nsis-generated installer then I get to pick an
installation directory, but after that a messagebox 'Program Error'
pops up saying
epspdf.0.2.exe has generated errors and will be closed by Windows. You will
need to restart the program.
An error log is being created.
This error log turns out to be
c:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Documents\DrWatson\drwtsn32.log
and starts out as follows:
Microsoft (R) Windows 2000 (TM) Version 5.00 DrWtsn32

Application exception occurred:
App: (pid=824)
When: 7/30/2006 @ 15:38:20.706
Exception number: c0000005 (access violation)
If you want to I can send you the complete log.
The installer got as far as creating an empty installation
directory.
If I run nsis from Windows then I get a working installer. This is
the nsis script (I temporarily commented out shortcut creation, but
that made no difference):
Name "Epspdf"
!define EPVERSION 0.2
OutFile "epspdf.${EPVERSION}.exe"
InstallDir "$PROGRAMFILES\epspdf"

I tried nsis installer again under Ubuntu Edgy and now the generated installer works fine. |
