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.
Would be the best indeed. An online installer is not useful in
our case as all the installers and packages are automagically
built.
