When sending the package with LANrev shortly after the install runs it kicks back: The requested operation completed successfully. The system will be restarted so the changes can take effect. (Error=1641).

This CAN NOT happen. It forces a restart of the computer when there are other packages that need to be installed. This also sends back a "successful" install to LANrev even though NOTHING has installed so the package does not retry. Though even after a computer restart it always kicks back a 1641 error.

This is the exact exit message that gets kicked back to LANrev just before the restart: The requested operation completed successfully. The system will be restarted so the changes can take effect. (Error=1641).

I can select the installation path and choose D:\ just fine... however, as soon as I hit install, I get an "out of disk space" error message which highlights the C:\ partition. (which is one of the reasons I want to install it on D:\).

Ok, I was able to force the installation by changing the instal locations of the individual components (on the install screen). As I remember it, the libraries were still attempting to install in the C: drive.

About 75% through, I received another "Out of Space Error" but the install continued. At the completion of the install, I received a message saying that not everything installed properly and a log file popped up.

No matter what, you're still going to have files installed on C:\ that exist in your user profile, programdata, start menu, icons, MSI registrations, registry, etc. Sounds like you need to clean your hard drive and make some space. Consider moving your Windows swap file to D:\. Not only does that often speed up memory paging, but it can save you multiple gigs. Also, if you're running Windows Vista or 7, then disable the hibernation file. That'll save you more and more gigs. Clear your %TEMP% folder (that's where your log is, btw) and save even more space. I bet with these steps you can clear 6-8GB easily.

It's not really possible to install any software completely on D:\ unless it is all self-contained. Every typical Windows certified application installs additional files to the locations that I mentioned above. You should really consider cloning your C:\ to a larger hard drive, as you should never have less than 20% free on C:\ for performance reasons.

If that is not an option, consider moving your profile over to D:\ as well as your %TEMP% locations, your Microsoft Office Cache folder, and potentially any other personal file that does not have to exist there.

C: drive has space, just not enough to satisfy installation, and in any case would totally fill all available space if I removed the very few items that could be moved. Basically C: is off limits. Now what?

I'm selecting D:\ as in the install drive and having the same space issue. I understand that all programs put some items on the same drive as the operating system. However the install of design suite seems to be trying to put an excessive amount of files on the C:\. In my case it is trying to put 53GB on the C: drive and only 14GB on the drive.

"Please understand that some parts of the installation files are necessary to be installed on the root system drive. Shortcuts, registry settings, and profile customization are all examples of this. However, you may be able to make some system changes that will allow you to install your Autodesk product and avoid this error. Some of these including moving the location of your temp directories and other space saving measures.

None of these methods to free up space are enough, and we shouldn't have to move anything. I understand that some files will still need to be located on C:, but the bulk of the data should be stored on (Adobe does this )
I think Autodesk should do something similar to really solve this issue. ( I use AutoCAD, Revit and Maya)

The program will not change what it needs, we really need to work with this fact. Back when SSD drives came out users were getting 50 or 60 gig drives- which is certainly not enough space for modern applications. Gigs are taken by the OS, not including temp and other programs. More recent drives 250Gig or so, have plenty of space.

No, the installer is trying to install a very large amount in an unspecified location. There is no reason the entirety of the application cannot be installed in the user specified location other than bad design. It's true some application configuration data belongs in the user profile, but the amount that you are trying to put there is insane.

Just thought that I would chime in. This is absolutely not standard in any way. Autodesk products are literally the only programs that I have come across that are doing this. When people are saying that you need some space on the C drive, they are correct, but there is absolutely no reason that it should be this size. For example, I have Matlab installed on my D drive and the amount of space that it requires on my C drive is less than 50mb.

Saying that not having 20+ gigs free on one drive isn't up to standards seems laughably out of touch. It's still completely normal to buy computers that have a relatively small SSD and one or more larger 7200rpm disk drives. Plus, in an educational or work environment individual users often have separate space on different drives, etc.

I was going to use/recommend some Autodesk programs for a class that I'm teaching, but this kind of thing definitely is stopping me right now. Maybe for somebody working at a company practically unlimited resources, this sort of thing doesn't matter. For the (potentially) future users, this sort of thing is the kind of thing that makes you choose a different program and abandon Autodesk products. Here's hoping that they fix it instead of just assuming that everyone has the same resources that their design team did. It's lazy programming on someone's part and it's absolutely not how anyone else is doing, so please stop responding with the same responses telling people to make more space or get a new hard drive. It's not helpful and just adds to the frustration of people trying to use the product. At least admit that it's a flaw and that it should be fixed, instead of pretending like it's the user's fault.

And no, I do not accept that Autodesk "has" to install 15+ GB of user and registry files onto my C drive. Almost no other software I've ever used does this. More and more people are using SSDs for their main hard drive as was mentioned.

When you say the user has the choice where to install, but 80% + is forced on C drive? That's not a choice. I would like to use Revit, but I'm not going to gut my C drive to satisfy the whims of Autodesk's obnoxious software design choices.

Honestly, if you have a 100Gig SSD or less as your C: drive- this is really small. It just is. Really small drives will fill quickly and tend to give you space errors. Either because of the temp folders or extract directory.

Eagle starts, I was able to log on and every few seconds the Eagle is not responding pops up. Two choices were to wait or force quit. It only affects Eagle and not my OS. It seems to pop up whenever I am trying to do something like creating a new project, etc.. If I wait and do not click anything it goes away in 5-10 secs.

I followed the instructions suggested here: -to-disable-the-window-not-responding-dialog by Vaelus

After that there was no "Force to quit or wait" dialog anymore but now I saw that eagle was totally unresponsive and after the newly configured timeout the popup still appeared.

I think it's an issue regarding the window manager or some graphics related (does it relate to the startup error?)

I believe I've found a workaround if not a solution. I stumbled upon this when I installed Ubuntu 22.04 on my 2012 vintage Shuttle PC. Essentially, in order to use xrandr to set the 1440p mode for my 2k monitor, I had to select "Ubuntu on Xorg" on the login screen (the default is Wayland). Then, when I installed Eagle 9.6.2 and started it (with the usual LiBGL_ALWAYS_SOFTWARE=1 setting), I immediately noticed that 'wait or force quit' problem was gone.

So, I just tried this on the 22.04 installation on my relatively new laptop (where I first noticed this problem), and I got the same result. I set "Ubuntu on Xorg" at the login screen, EAGLE runs without the annoyingly frequent 'wait or force quit' dialog boxes popping up. If I log out and then log in using Wayland, the problem returns.

Sorry but this statement is not fair. Wayland is not "breaking things", the real issue here is that EAGLE still does not support Wayland natively, and it's running using the XWayland wrapper. It's being YEARS since the development of X is almost stalled.

Well if you accuse my statement of being "unfair" then you really need to retract that one! Being in a constant state of flux is NOT a mark of software quality or maturity; needing very few changes generally is.

Why do you think I'm "offended"? And why are you so "offended" by my comment? You are choosing to blame the developers of a piece of fairly old software for the fact that some other group of maintainers decided to pull the rug from under THE WHOLE WORLD (not just Eagle) by breaking the underlying OS.

You are clearly a fan of Wayland. I am not. It's unnecessary and underdeveloped and causes nothing but grief for most people. This is what happens when you tear up the fundamentals that people rely on and don't provide a properly working transitional layer. If Xwayland doesn't work properly then THIS IS NOT EAGLE's FAULT. It's Wayland that's at fault here, because they're the ones that broke things for everyone else and didn't provide a properly working compatibility layer.

Eagle works perfectly well on Gentoo, where you are given the choice to remain with a platform that works and you are expected to understand that trying out bleeding edge experimental replacements will cause you problems.
