BLOODY REPLY-ALL NON-DEFAULT issue in Gmail... Trying again to all. Thanks for the heads up. Sorry I've been quiet. Obviously at this point, Zim 0.55 isn't going to happen. Last week I prepared a pristine Windows XP SP 3 VM with pesky WGA removed, and I'm going to fork that VM and use one instance to build Zim 0.56, and another to snapshot, test Zim, and roll-back as many times as needed until I get it working. If my build runs on a clean XP SP 3 install, it should hopefully work for anyone. I will be sure to determine for certain whether VC++ Runtime or other missing parts of the OS are needed to be included in the installer. Why the Visual C++ runtime libraries are not included in the OS installer is beyond my comprehension. I hate building software for Windows.

[Zim-wiki] Installing on Windows: This application has failed to start because the application configuration is incorrect
I just had a hard time installing Zim 0.54 on Windows XP SP3. The application seemed to install fine, but when running it I would get the following error: This application has failed to start because the application configuration is incorrect. It turns out that the problem was that Visual C++ was not installed: http://www.microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?displaylang=en&id=5582 I do not think that either Python nor GTK were installed on that machine, and I did not have to install them separately. Only Visual C++ and Zim itself. This message is to inform people who run into this issue in the future, including myself for next time. -- Dotan Cohen http://gibberish.co.il http://what-is-what.com ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~zim-wiki Post to : zim-wiki@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~zim-wiki More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
