SetupBuilder 5.6 build 1635 Release Candidate

[NewsArchive]

All,

Data Execution Prevention (DEP) in Windows XP SP2, Windows x64, and Windows
2003 stopped SetupBuilder executables.

DEP problems caused "To help protect your computer, Windows has closed this
program." Windows messages. On top of that, installation executables
compiled with SetupBuilder 5.6 build 1627 resulted in an installer Error#
0002:000998 followed by an installer Error# 0002:0004202513.

We have uploaded a small (570 KB) SetupBuilder 5.6 build 1635 Release
Candidate patch. Please let us know if this fixes the DEP problems for you.

http://www.lindersoft.com/sb50/SB56_1635rc_Dev.exe

Note: The patch requires an exactly matched previous version of SetupBuilder
5.6 Developer Edition which is build 1627.

We have updated all SetupBuilder DLLs and LIBs. Build 1635 includes a
recompiled wupdate.exe Web Update client.

To uninstall SetupBuilder 5.6 build 1635 Release Candidate patch, run the
"Uninst_SetupBuilder 5.6 Dev 1635 RC.exe" uninstall application.

Hello,

Ok - Great.

So the two issues ARE related and do not have to do with Admin or Temp
Folder? I will create a build this morning and have them try again ...
they are 4 hours behind us in SLC.

Hello Robert,

Yes, SetupBuilder 5.6 build 1627 installer error# 0002:000998 followed by
Error# 0002:0004202513 and the "To help protect your computer, Windows has
closed this program." DEP message do not have to do with Admin or Temp.

All previous SB5 versions (5.0 - 5.5) displayed the "To help protect your
computer, Windows has closed this program." Windows message only.

BTW, even the SetupBuilder 5.6 IDE caused the DEP failure. Fixed now.

Hi John,

The release candidate is for Developer Edition only (to test if the DEP
issue is fixed).

Are you on Pro 5.6 build 1627? If this is the case, I'll send you a patch
for Pro via email.

Dang again...

I managed to use my old SB 5 beta user name and password to login and download the
candidate patch.

But when I run it, it says if fails to find SB5 Developer version, and I have
Professional Version.

Any way I can get a patch to fix this damn DEP problem with SB5.6.1627 Professional.
I am trying to send another program update in the next 2 hours. The one I sent last
night failed again.

Hi Friedrich

Thanks. Looks like it is time I upgraded to Developer version. This is planned for
when my present license is up for renewal in a few weeks :-)

The best email to get me is either the gmail one you see here, or

oztime AT tpg.com.au

Regards

Hi Friedrich

Thanks, I have your email and have patched by system and built tonights update.

I shall let you know if the client has any problem when they do the install overnight
tonight, but I am confident that it will run without problems.

Thanks a lot for your prompt attention to this problem which looks very much like it
was as a result of a change by Microsoft.
