Doing a fresh install over 1.1.0 Beta, I get an unhandled exception at each of the uninstall steps (ie uninstallation of MP, TV-Server)

Here is the exception that was thrown the 2nd time I ran the install and it tried to uninstall TV Server. I quit and ran the uninstall files manually and it seemed to work. I could then proceed with the installation.


System.UnauthorizedAccessException: Access to the path 'C:\Documents and Settings\xxxxx\Local Settings\Temp\uninstall-tve3.exe' is denied.

I can confirm that one.

 

[lordie]

I can confirm it too

 

[rmeredit]

I can confirm, three! For me, though, it only happened on the attempt to uninstall TV Server; uninstalling MP client beforehand worked fine. I'm also using XP SP3. Running the installer a second time worked fine, and I didn't have to do a manual uninstall.

On Windows 7 I had the issue only when it uninstalls the TV client, and I must admit it has ForTheRecord installed. On a second machine without any TV components I did not have this issue. I have not updated my server yet. No logs available, sorry for that.

Ok that is exactly what I had

Are you all using For the Record?

No, me not.

No I'm not.

AW: Unhandled exception on installation of 1.1.0 RC1

...me neither.

Had the same problem for both MP and MP TV Server installing over MP 1.0.1.

First time unhandled exe-exception during MP uninstaller in the same folder as globaldonkeys example. Running the installer a second time worked for MP uninstaller but threw exception for ...\temp\uninstall-tve3.exe during TV Server uninstall . Running the installer a third time worked til the end.

Besides that, there were no problems during and after install.

Idea: Perhaps the temp folder, which should be accessed during uninstall, is hardcoded for different local settings folders throughout the MP revisions. This folder exists for Administrator/All Users/ProfileXY...
