So i want to give mediaportal 2 a try but i have a failure during installation. Here is my log. What have a done wrong. Thanks des.

Do you get an error message in the installer program or does it just say it installed successfully but nothing happens.

I very quickly get an installation failed message. I can click on details and I get a log which is the same as what I posted. Thanks des.

There is a file called MP2-Setup-Logging.bat
Right click on it and tell it to run under the Admin account.
If it fails again, please post the logs


MP2-Setup.log
MP2-Setup_000_MainPackage.log

Ok when I tried running as admin the batch file flashes up quickly then disappears and the setup does not start. When I double click it normally I get the same fault as the first time. So it says "setup failed 0x80070001 - Incorrect function"

It fails just after the installer displays Doken library bundle. Thanks

Ok so I edited the batch file with a pause command at the end so I could read what was wrong. Its saying
"

MP2-Setup.exe started.
Logging to MP2-Setup.log...
'MP2-Setup.exe' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.
Press any key to continue . . .

Where did you get MP2 from? Let's make sure you have the latest version. Also are you running a virus scanner? I have Avast which checks inside the install archive, which in turn causes the install to fail

Ok was able to run the batch file as an admin by moving it to a different folder and then changing the directory to the same place at the command prompt. Windows didn't have it In the patch so couldn't find the file seems to be the fault. Response is the same with a failure in the same place once the installer runs.

Here is another log.

I did have an old version of mediaportal installed on this machine, but its now uninstalled if that matters??

I am running AVAST! So I disabled it for 1 hour and have the same fault. I downloaded mediaportal from here MediaPortal 2.1 Pre2 Release - MEDIAPORTAL I will try another download with a different browser just in case. Thanks

Ok downloaded again and exactly the same failure.
