[Mingw-w64-public] MinGW-W64 installation fails with 'ERROR res'

2014-10-14 Thread John Threepwood
Hello,

recently I downloaded MinGW-W64 but unfornuately the installation fails.

My system:
- Windows 7 64 Bit Professional (all updates installed)
- Intel Core i7-3520M CPU
- 12 GB main memory

Steps:
1. Opened mingw-w64-install.exe
2. Installation settings:
Version: 4.9.1
Architecture: x86_64
Threads: posix
Exception: seh
Build revision: 1
3. Click Next
4. After downloading the first file, a small error Windows appears 
saying 'ERROR res'.

What I have tried:
- Closing other applications (Dropbox, etc)
- Disabling Firewall and Anti-Virus sofware
- Re-downloading the mingw-w64-install.exe file


Does someone know what to do?


Thank you,
best greetings,
John

Just a thought: why use a paid-for installer instead of something freely
available like NSIS?

Hi,

Because I use this installer in a few of my commercial projects. Why do 
I need to learn yet another installer?

Well, I honestly don't really care what installer you use as long as it
works (that's why I brought it up now ;-)), but should you leave the
project suddenly for whatever reason (sickness, death, work, etc.), there
would be no installer anymore. It would be logical that any project member
could build such a thing by only downloading some free tools. Additionally:
if it were only an update to the installer software that was needed,
everyone on the project could have updated it. But now the fix takes longer
because it depends on a single person's personal access to commercial
software.

Don't get me wrong: your installer is better than no installer (and worked
well before this issue popped up out of nowhere), but it is still
suboptimal for an open source project run and maintained by various people.

Cheers,

Ruben

2014-10-14 Thread Jose Alf.

I would like to help to build a new installer. I suggest we use InnoSetup or 
NSIS. I like InnoSetup because it's easier to mantain, but NSIS generates 
smaller installer files. I can try to understand what the current installer 
does, but it will go faster if you give me a summary.

Hi,

The installer need to download and parse this[1] repository-file, and 
should provide some combo-boxes to the user so that he could select 
arch/version/exceptions model/threads model/revision. Than the installer 
should download/unpack the archive of selected build.

Would it be possible to go with something Open Source and
build-able/built with MinGW-w64 such as:

http://sourceforge.net/projects/msys2/files/REPOS/MINGW/i686/mingw-w64-i686-qt-installer-framework-git-r2283.0d529d9-1-any.pkg.tar.xz/download

Documentation is at:
