    Default Decompression error

    Hi All

    I have a site that on install is giving a message:
    A Decompression error has been detected
    File: c:\... [#-200000005]

    I have Enable Installer Integrity Check set to Yes.

    Anyone know what this means??

    It means the download was corrupted sometime during the download. I'd
    advise re-downloading.

    So what does the integrity check do?

    It simply ensures that the resulting install file is not altered in any
    way post compile. Its a great security measure to ensure that the
    install is not tampered with (in addition to signing).

    Actually I find that hard to beleive because the setup was in a zip
    file, so it had to decompress ok to pass the zip file check.

    Trust the error message. It came up for a very good reason.

    See attached screenshot.

    And this as an example:

    Assuming that it is not caused by an over-protective (buggy)
    anti-spyware/virus product, I think your issue is not only on a single site
    but on all UAC-aware OSs (with UAC enabled).

    Does this help?

    Thanks Friedrich


    It never occured to me that that error might be in the manual ....

    I sort of thought it might be something like that but the 2 in the front
    threw me.

    Next time I should RTFM eh.

    Clarion 8.8778 - XP operating system - SetupBuilder 7.7

    I am posting this in Clarion and SetupBuilder newsgroups since I am not
    sure if this is: 1) my problem, 2) Setupbuilder, 3) Clarion, or 4)
    permissions.
    I have a customer when they install the full blown version of our
    software for the first time, it installs. If they try and install our
    'Lite' version into the same folder, we get this error:

    'A decompression error has been detected.
    File: C:\Program Files\PDS Cortex\CLABAS.dll [#-200000032]'

    If I rename the PDS Cortex folder and run either 'Full' or Lite' install
    again, it works. It doesn't matter which version is installed first,
    the second one fails. The only difference in the versions is that we
    have different desktop icons and of course, what they can and cannot do
    within our software. It is like I cannot copy CLABAS.DLL when it
    already exists.
    Has anyone seen this behavior before?
    Is is some kind of permission problem?

    TIA
