I can run the WPKG-GP-Client.exe manually, and it runs, but for some strange reason it tries to reinstall tons of things that are already installed! Perhaps being a 32-bit app, or something else about how the client sets up the environment, gives wpkg a different view of the system such that it can not perform "uninstall" checks correctly.
being a 32-bit app is the cause wpkg.xml is stored in system32 sytem32 is not the same physical directory for 64 and 32 bit apps. system32 is the home of 64 bit dlls for a 64 bit app syswow64 is mapped to system32 for a 32 bit app and contains 32 bit dlls something similar happens in the registry We need a 64 bit app in order to be able to check all thinkable. some parts of the sytem are hidden to a 32 bit app only a 64 bit app can access everything. -- Jean-Jacques Moulis Tel: (013) 281684 ISY Fax: (013) 139282 Linköping University E-mail: j...@isy.liu.se 581 83 Linköping ------------------------------------------------------------------------- wpkg-users mailing list archives >> http://lists.wpkg.org/pipermail/wpkg-users/ _______________________________________________ wpkg-users mailing list wpkg-users@lists.wpkg.org http://lists.wpkg.org/mailman/listinfo/wpkg-users
