Installation of Piccolo help broken under Vista #65

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Install piccolo.net-1.2-help.zip on Vista.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Instead of normal installation, an error message appears saying that
H2Reg.exe should be run as administrator. This happens despite the UAC
privilege elevation that happens automatically when the .MSI file is run.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
Piccolo 1.2 on Vista Home Premium.

Please provide any additional information below.
I manually updated to the latest H2Reg.exe and it fixed the problem. The
H2Reg.exe embedded in the current .MSI needs to be updated.

I have a friend that can rebuild the project in VS.NET 2008. That should make it
contain the correct version of the exe.  Will hound him today.

Done. new freshly uploaded Piccolo2D.NET-Help-v2.zip contains an installer that 
uses
the newest stable version of h2reg. My friend and I have both installed it and 
it
doesn't complain. He has Windows 7 mind you and I have XP Pro.

So I'm marking it as fixed and leaving it up to someone who uses Vista to 
verify it.

I've update the link in the website to the new version too, but it could take 3 
hours
for the change to become active.

the help installer now bundles the correct version of H2Reg
