IzPack Installer is not working after getting last updates ..

[Samar Ayesh]

Hello Ashok, 
After I get the last updates for bungeni Editor .. including the new themes ...

I used IzPack installer to generate the executable file, the same way I used to do ..
copied the config folder, dist into base...

compiled install.xml and get install.jar

but windows.vbs didn't run ?
how can I catch the error here ?

[Ashok Hariharan]

can you run the command inside the windows.vbs file in a cmd window - you will see the errors

Yes I did it .. and the result is attached as a screenshot !!

[Ashok Hariharan]

I meant run .\scripts\windows.bat from that folder ...

[Samar Ayesh]

Aha .. the system can't find the specified path for config.bat, main.bat, gui.bat !!

[Samar Ayesh]

How could I solve this?

[Samar Ayesh]

Hello Ashok, 
Sorry for bothering you .. but I have to submit a testing version to lawyers for the editor ..
And I don't know why the installer is not running ! 

[Ashok Hariharan]

Whats the exact error you are getting ? 

[Ashok Hariharan]

Just a reminder the instructions are here :

http://code.google.com/p/bungeni-editor/wiki/HowTo_GenerateIzPackInstaller

I have just built a package and installed it, and clicking on windows.vbs launches the configuration selector dialog for me. 

Maybe you are doing something different ?

I managd to solve it Ashok...
There was error at the config folder path .. what I did is that I updated configs.xml file under izpack_tmpl and added this tag for birzeitConfigs ..

 <config name="BirzeitConfigs"

    title="Act Type Birzeit Configurations"

    url="http://bungeni-editor.googlecode.com/svn/BungeniEditor_configs/birzeit_configs.zip"

    folder-base="${config.folder.home}${FILE_SEPARATOR}"

    receiver="org.bungeni.editor.input.FSDocumentReceiver"

    default="true"

/>

[Ashok Hariharan]

You didnt really need to edit that ... the version in svn :

http://bungeni-editor.googlecode.com/svn/BungeniEditor/trunk/BungeniEditorClient/installer/izpack_tmpl/configs.xml

has the correct path prefixes :

 folder-base="${config.folder.home}${FILE_SEPARATOR}editor_configs"
    receiver="org.bungeni.editor.input.FSDocumentReceiver"
    default="true"

It will create a folder called editor_configs in a writable area ... 

[Samar Ayesh]

I have the config folder under this path C:\Users\bzuadmin\Desktop\bungeni\BungeniEditor_configs\birzeit_configs

and izpack config points to this path .. C:\Users\bzuadmin\Desktop\bungeni\BungeniEditor_configs\editor_configs

which doesn't exist so it didn't run ..

[Ashok Hariharan]

Yeah but thats a local copy in your computer ... when you ship the editor in the installer - you package in the configuration folder :

See the "Preparing" section : 

http://code.google.com/p/bungeni-editor/wiki/HowTo_GenerateIzPackInstaller#Preparing

once that is done the installer allows you to select a place where you want to install the configuration.
