Visual Studio 2005 Beta 2 setup fails immediately

Hi,

I'm installing Visual Studio 2005 Team Suite from the Beta 2 DVD handed out at one of the recent MEDC events.

I have: Windows XP Pro + SP2, 1.6Ghz, 256MB RAM, 4Gb disk space free. No problem with the DVD drive that I am aware of. No previous betas installed. I have VS 2003, eVC++4.0, Embedded Visual Tools 3.0 installed.

Following error appears:

AppName: setup.exe AppVer: 8.0.50215.44 ModName: setup.exe

ModVer: 8.0.50215.44 Offset: 00029002

Any ideas I can send the full error log if you give me an address.

Regards,

Ade W

    I've seen other 1937 errors but we're not sure why they're occurring.
    It might be fusion, the windows installer, or something else installed on your machine which is causing this.

    Can you try the workaround here:

    and let me know if it works

    It'll require you to get a copy of gacutil.exe and the binary in question from another machine with the same build.

  • corado

    Unfortunately, I think you might have a bad DVD. Can you try copying the DVD to a local directory and installing from there

    Thanks.

    This is dd_vs80error.txt - looks more helpful. Which part of the Vsmsi* file do you need (it's 10MB). BTW, first time I ran setup.exe I had not yet installed SP2 for XP.

  • russ_mac

    How far did setup proceed
    Can you look at your %temp% folder and look at the error and paste it in a reply
    Thanks.

  • ShriShri

    I have read/write permission to %temp%.

    When I run the setup now (\vs\setup.exe) the 65 files are copied but it does not get as far as creating a vsMSI* log file. Msinterr.txt and dd_vsinstall80.txt are created but don't seem to contain anything that looks useful in the way of error reports.

    However, here's an extract from an earlier Vsmsilog* which contains the lines above 'Return value 3' (which I have seen you requesting from other folks who are having trouble.

    Any further tips appreciated.

  • RudolfT

    Is there a VSMSI* log file that gets generated
    There isn't much in the log file right now to help diagnose this.
    Do you also have a screen shot of the failure

  • Kaloyan Georgiev

    Hi,

    The first time I let the DVD autorun it copied 65 files to \Temp\ and then gave the error. If I insert the DVD and let it autorun now, it immediately bombs out as originally reported. If I Explore the DVD and run \vs\setup\setup.exe then it copies the 65 files to \Temp\ and then gives the error.

    From dd_vsinstall80.txt in the latter case:

    Hi Dan,

    Thanks for the tip. I installed a new 80Gb hard disk and copied the entire DVD to the local drive (seemed to go okay). However, no change on the problem. Can you confirm which file I should manually execute to start the installation I tried:

    \vs\autorun.exe
    \vs\setup.exe
    \vs\Setup\setup.exe

    but they all generate errors immediately.

    Regards,

    Ade

  • AaronSchurg

    I purchased the DVD from Microsoft and I am having the same problem. If you have any suggestions for solving this problem I would appreciate hearing from you. I contacted Microsoft, however they just passed the buck around.

    You could try running FileMon or RegMon and see if they throw up any errors of obvious faults:
    http://www.sysinternals.com

    Is anything reported in Event Viewer Are there any .NET related packages installed on the machine Have you since put on XP SP2 Have you tried running Microsoft Update



  • Vantskruv

    \vs\setup.exe will launch the "launcher"
    \vs\setup\setup.exe is the VS install only

    Can you also check the permissions in your %temp% directory to make sure you have read/write access to it
