Hi,
I'm unable to reproduce the error on any local machines,
so could you try doing the following:
- start up a command shell
- cd into the directory where the 5.04 msi files lives
- run the following command:
c:\downloads> msiexec /i ghc-5-04.msi /l* msi.log
that will run the MS installer with logging turned on. If you
could either send or point me at a copy of the resulting log
file, msi.log, that'd be very helpful in trying to narrow down
the cause of this.
thanks
