Re: Installation failed
Actually I discovered I was running out of disk space in my VM. DOH! The installer doesn't really spell that out when it fails, so I feel somewhat vindicated.

Re: Installation failed
Now it gets most of the way through and then backs out and says can't install payload or some such thing.

Re: Installation failed
Copying the installer from the desktop to the C:\Software folder then running the installer did the trick. Sometimes I cannot see the forest for the trees. It goes to my view that everything that happens with a computer is to create the illusion of something, but it has no substance itself. In this case my desktop looks like a local desktop, but is actually working like folder redirection to a network profile.

Re: Installation failed
Hmmm... interesting point. The Parallels VM shares the Mac desktop. It does so, believe it or not, through a custom network adapter. So even though it's on my desktop, the VM thinks it's on a network share.

Re: Installation failed
Right. That is because the Mac drive is accessed over a network drive in that scenario. The Windows installer won’t work on a network drive. — Trevor DeVore On Mon, Apr 2, 2018 at 9:46 PM Peter Bogdanoff via use-livecode < use-livecode@lists.runrev.com> wrote: > Also, if you’re using something like Windows/Parallels on a Mac, you have > to do the whole operation completely in Windows. > > Peter > > > On Apr 2, 2018, at 7:04 PM, Trevor DeVore via use-livecode < > use-livecode@lists.runrev.com> wrote: > > > > Sounds like you are trying to install on Windows when the installer is > on a > > network drive.

Re: Installation failed
Also, if you’re using something like Windows/Parallels on a Mac, you have to do the whole operation completely in Windows.

Re: Installation failed
Sounds like you are trying to install on Windows when the installer is on a network drive. Try copying the installer to the Windows machine. — Trevor DeVore On Mon, Apr 2, 2018 at 4:54 PM Bob Sneidar via use-livecode < use-livecode@lists.runrev.com> wrote: > Livecode Installer // Installation failed > The installation was not successful > > Could not launch Installer Slave. > > Sound familiar to anyone?
