Ok y'all just knew that wasn't the end of the matter didnt you <g> I downloaded the CF9.0.2 from the repo that Charlie sent me to. It was in a folder that was blank when I looked at, and blank again when I looked at it again, while other folders had content in them. But when Andrew sent me back there ... lo and behold! There was content. So I downloaded the file. So far so good.
I uninstalled the old version of CF9 from that machine and all its components using the uninstaller, checked in the Control panel> Uninstall programs that it was indeed gone, and checked that all the folders were gone. Emptied the recycle bin, then rebooted the machine. Now when I go to install the file I just downloaded (using "run as adminstrator" by the way), I get an error message that seems to be related to java and the install aborts. This happens before the first install screen comes up - it never gets to the point where the installer says "welcome to ..." There's a java dialog box that says: Fatal Application Error This application has unexpectedly quit. invocation of this java application has caused an InvocationTargetException. This applicaton wil now exit (LAX) And when I click on "details" i see the following (which I'm afraid means nothing to me). Can someone please tell me what's gone wrong here? Did I download the wrong version?
