Priority: medium
Bug ID: 66265
Assignee: [email protected]
Summary: Unable to install 4.1.0.1: It requires msi files of an
older version (4.0.3.3) to uninstall it first.
Severity: normal
Classification: Unclassified
OS: All
Reporter: [email protected]
Hardware: Other
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Version: 4.1.0.1 rc
Component: Installation
Product: LibreOffice
Before installing 4.1.0.1, I uninstalled the previous version (beta 2). However
the control panel still shows two entries for this older version (one for the
main program, the other for the help file). If I click on these entries, the
uninstaller asks for the msi file.
"The installation source for this product is not available. Verify that the
source exists and that you can access it."
Unfortunately I have deleted these files after I got the latest version.
So I tried to install 4.1.0.1 in parallel (without uninstalling the previous
version), but this installer detects that an older version is still installed,
and again asks for the msi file of the previous version (4.0.3.3); and then
aborts the installation.
I checked the C:\Users\<UserName>\AppData\Roaming path, but there are no
folders named LODEV, LibreOffice, etc.
I searched the registry but there are no values/keys with LibreOffice, LO,
LODEV, etc.
Since I have already uninstalled the previous version (4.0.3.3), the control
panel entries must be ghost entries, but I am not able to delete these entries.
(Usually the Control Panel offers to delete such ghost entries. But in this
case it insists on having the msi file of 4.0.3.3.)
How do I get rid of the issue?
I am ready to download the older version msi files, but they are no longer
available from the website.
Please help!
