I am having an issue with the windows installer :
Ok, so after investigations I partially fixed my problem :
- I have no idea why the installer tried to download with the
wrong URL, this should not happen, and on my own compiled
version of the installer this did not happen.
- The plugin used by NSIS to download files, inetc, depends on
WinetAPI, which means that if your Internet Explorer
installation is not working ( that was my case ), the installer
can't work.
- The installer code is very old, and we should think about
updating it ( replace the obsolete "nsisunz" plugin by
"ZipDLL", avoid "inetc" problems using builtin "NSISdl" ... )
The current plan (by me at least) is to just do away with the
downloading entirely and just embedding the files in the
installer.
