Category: Installation Group: v4.0 Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: Stephen Rondeau (srondeau) Assigned to: Mark Miesfeld (miesfeld) Summary: rxapi service does not start Initial Comment: ooRexx 4.0.0 Windows XP SP3 The installer was directed to install to "F:\Program Files\ooRexx" instead of the default "C:\Program Files\ooRexx". When the installer tried to start the RXAPI service, it failed -- its image path was "C:\Program Files\ooRexx\rxapi.exe". I edited the registry to change it, and manually started the RXAPI service, so there is a workaround. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Stephen Rondeau (srondeau) Date: 2009-08-22 20:01 Message: I did remove the previous installation, but did not stop the rxapi service -- I thought the uninstaller would uninstall everything, including removing the service. I also did not restart. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Mark Miesfeld (miesfeld) Date: 2009-08-22 11:22 Message: The only way I see that this is possible is: * A previous version of ooRexx is installed in C:\Program Files\ooRexx with rxapi installed as a service * When the message box comes up prompting the user to uninstall the previous version, they say no, don't uninstall the previous version, and then continue with the new install. * When the new install prompts the user to stop the running rxapi, they say no. In that case, the old rxapi service is not uninstalled, and when the installer tries to start rxapi, it fails because it is already running. Since installing without removing the previous version is not supported, I think the bug here is continuing with the install when either the user does not uninstall the previous version, or the user does not stop rxapi. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=684730&aid=2842643&group_id=119701 |
