| Summary | 0004599: JVCL installer destroys | ||||
| Description | After updating JCL and JVCL from the SVN I successfully recompiled jcl and then tried to recompile JVCL. I used Install.bat, I saw CMD generating language files and then the installer has been destroyed. No window has been displayed at all. | ||||
| Tags | No tags attached. | ||||

|
What Delphi version do you use? |
|
|
I'm seeing the same thing with a dual install of Delphi 2007 and Delphi 2009. Note that JVCLInstall.exe is correctly built in jvcl\bin but it is not executed after compilation (through install.bat). Executing JVCLInstall.exe manually works though. |
|
|
Don't you have an error message? |
|
|
No error messages here. After the CMD window disappears something (probably the main installer window) blinks for a split second and disappears. |
|
|
and if you run install from an cmd window, don't you have a message in the cmd window that does not close anymore? |
|
|
Hi Olivier! Well, I've just tried to run Install.bat from CMD. I got the following info in the commnad line window: [Compiling installer...] Using CodeGear RAD Studio 2009 CodeGear Delphi for Win32 compiler version 20.0 Copyright (c) 1983,2008 CodeGear 166514 lines, 1.01 seconds, 1228884 bytes code, 56 [Generating language files...] Known languages: bg de es fr it nl pl ro ru sv [Starting installer...] bin\JVCLInstall.exe "The requested operation requires elevation". |
|
|
Well, there you have it, the batch requires you to be an administrator in Vista. |
|
|
Yeah. And I am the only one user and the administrator of my own PC. In such cases the Vista UAC always displays a warning that requires a user's permission. But here I don't see any dialog. So I suppose something is wrong with the installer. |
|
|
There is the CommCtrlAsInvoker.res that the installer uses to prevent the UAC from identifying the installer as an administrative task. And that seems to fail. |

VistaUAC.manifest (1,101 bytes) |
|
|
And why do you want to protect the Installer against UAC identification? Take a look at my own .manifest resource file attached to this message. |
|
|
Because the JCL and JVCL Installer aren't setups in the way a Office Setup is. They are build machines. And as such they need access to the current user's directories (asInvoker) and not the directories of an Administrator (requireAdministrator). |
|
|
I have now changed install.bat to use the old way to start the JVCL Installer if the JVCLCmdStarter.exe can't start it. |
