webupdate cannot move new devpak

    Hello,

    Could you change the message displayed by the message box in WebUpdate.pas at line 197 to make it display the target file name ? I guess it should be something like:

    MessageDlg('Could not move file ' + PUpdateRec(wThread.Files[I])^.TempFilename +
    +' to ' + PackFileName + ' please verify you have enough permissions to install packages on this system',
    mtWarning, [mbOK], 0);

    On my Win95, that message is displayed and I certainly have the right to write to the package directory. I suspect the target name (PackFileName) is wrong and I would like to see what it is.

    Thanks,

    Frederic

      put it either in patches, RFE or bugs and someone will deal with it in time. (otherwise it will most likely get lost/forgotten among all the discussions)

      Thanks,
      Marek

      Thank you Marek. It is unclear to me whether it is a feature request or a bug or a patch... The webupdate failure is a bug, but my request is a feature I would like to see in the next release to try to find the bug and I propose a line of code making it a patch to a feature to find a bug... :-)

      In the end, I submited it as a bug report with ID 1006424. I hope it doesn't get lost in all the bug reports too :-)

      I would like to see that change in the next release so that I can try to find out what the error is.

      Frederic
