Hi I'm the maintainer of the Windows Installer. Sorry for the long delay of this reply - I've been extremely busy lately.
If you can, please send us the wrapper.log logfile. You can find it via the tray icon in the beta release. It might contain useful information. Where do you get the "2" error code? From the Windows service manager? Is there anything special about your system? Group policies? Special version of Windows? Non-standard antivirus software? .... You should be able to run the service in a command promt by simply copying the command line from the Windows service manager, eventually removing the "-s" switch. - Zero3 Magnus Ekhall wrote: > Matthew Toseland skrev: >> On Tuesday 25 August 2009 18:34:34 Magnus Ekhall wrote: >>> I tried to install using the 1232 version of the XP installer. >>> >>> At the end of the installation it says that it failed becaus the service >>> could not be started. >>> >>> If I try to start the service manually it will eventually fail as well >>> with the error code "2". >>> >>> Any ideas? >> Try the beta installer: >> http://privat.zero3.dk/FreenetInstaller_Beta.exe >> >> This will install an old version of Freenet, with no update.cmd.
