[not reproducible] Installation Failure: Failed to install application [Directx 9c - June 2010] (1 Viewer)

[skoka123]

Hello all

I am trying to upgrade from 1.1 to 1.2RC. The idea is to get the Hauppauge Colossus card working. When I try to upgrade or reinstall fresh install, I get the following error.

Media Portal Deploy Tool -- Error
Failed to install application [Directx9c - June 2010]

What should I do?

Thanks,
Srikanth

Hi skoka123

Two things:
- the computer must be connected to the internet while installing (or you must pre-install the required packages when you have internet access)
- you must run the installer with administrator privileges (right click + run as administrator)

You should also supply the logs

I wasn't sure if the logs would help (or if there would be any) as I was having error installing Directx and not MP.

Anyway, I had uninstalled all of MP and then did a fresh reinstall. That worked. So the problem is now resolved.

Thanks for all the inputs.
