Category: Installation Group: v4.0 Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: Stephen Rondeau (srondeau) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) 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. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=684730&aid=2842643&group_id=119701 |

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 |

The uninstall will remove everything, but the rxapi service has to be stopped. If it is not stopped, it can not be removed as a service. I think that will put us back to the final part of my first outline. The new install will finish okay, the old rxapi will not have been stopped, so the installer will say it can not start rxapi, (because it will already be running.) Since the old rxapi service is not uninstalled, the OS will not have changed the path to that old rxapi.exe. All, in all, it is a hole in the installer. We recommend that rxapi be installed as a service. On an install where an existing version of ooRexx is detected, we recommend it be uinstalled. And, when the installer detects rxapi is running, we recommend it be stopped. The reality is that you *must* stop rxapi and you *must* uninstall the previous version of ooRexx. If you don't, the new version will not be installed correctly. Just some FYI. You do not need to restart the system on an install. You can uninstall the rxapi service from the command line, and install it. In your situation you could of done the following to fix things: F:\>"C:\Program Files\ooRexx\rxapi" /u F:\>"F:\Program Files\ooRexx\rxapi" /i But, I would hardly have expected you to know that. <grin> ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 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.
