Installation FS2Phidget 4.00

[captaintom]

Hi Guys,

during installation of FS2Phidget 4.00 i found out that it is not possible to do a full installation when the setup.exe is a the same drive than the installation folder. E.g. setup.exe located at c:\ and installation directory c:\program files\fs2... is not possible.

The installation worked until i displaced the setup.exe e.g. to d:\

The massage i got was:

The specified directory: c:\Program Files\FS2Phidget\ is in the Setup source files directory. Please type a different directory.

Do anyone have same experiences?

Tom,

Let me try a clean install on my system.
I might have screwed install script.
Will get a fix for you.

Regards,

Tom,

What folder did you have setup.exe on C: ?

Alan,

i have setup.exe and rest of zip content directly on root c:\. I have tested it on two different computers and get same result.

If i displace the whole content of zip to root d:\ and start setup.exe it do all it should.

I used the proposed installation path.

Tom,

Will be problem if you unzip fs2phidget400.zip to root of C:
Have suspicion is subtle bug with VB package wizard.
Must add note to readme.txt

When you unzip on a Windows XP system the default directory is C:\fs2phidget400
Go with the flow and unzip to that directory.
All unzipped files should go into same directory.

Regards,
Alan.
