Install fails #53

Closed matlimatli closed 8 months ago

matlimatli commented 9 months ago

HeatWave Version

1.0.2

Visual Studio Version

17.8.3

Repro Steps

  1. Run the vsix installer

Actual Result

The installation fails according to the VSIX installer dialog. Also see attached log. dd_VSIXInstaller_20231213135037_7ed4.log

However, when running the install again, the installer says that the product is already installed. Unclear if it is fully installed, or in a half-installed state.

Moreover, I have similar problems on an offline system. The problem on the online system seems to be that the installer thinks that Windows 11 SDK is not installed (which it is), and then downloads an installer which has an unexpected hash. On the offline system, the installer also thinks that the SDK is not installed (which it is), and obviously fails to download it since there is no Internet connectivity.

Expected Result

The installation succeeds

As a workaround, by first uninstalling the Windows SDK using the VS installer, it was possible to install HeatWave, both on the online and offline systems.

Unfortunately, the nature of the VSIX installer is that things get scheduled to be installed alongside our extension and we have no control over the process. It's true the SDK installs can be particularly problematic. But it's not something we have the ability to affect on our end.

Thanks for reporting this.
