[Bug 527972] Re: [Lucid Alpha 3] usb-creator.exe does not accept ISO selection on Windows XP system
I can confirm the workaround in post #7. Installing 7zip indeed allows the iso file to appear in the selection box. ** Changed in: usb-creator (Ubuntu) Status: New = Confirmed -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/527972 Title: [Lucid Alpha 3] usb-creator.exe does not accept ISO selection on Windows XP system -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 527972] Re: [Lucid Alpha 3] usb-creator.exe does not accept ISO selection on Windows XP system
I found what causes this bug. It's the missing 7z.dll in the windows build. A workaround is to install 7zip manually. If you have 7zip installed, usb-creator recognises the iso files. The moment you uninstall 7zip, usb-creator stops working. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/527972 Title: [Lucid Alpha 3] usb-creator.exe does not accept ISO selection on Windows XP system -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Evan, did you mean to set this to Triaged?

Pushing this back to SRU; appears to only affect the Windows executable, so isn't directly relevant to ISO builds anyway. ** Changed in: usb-creator (Ubuntu Lucid) Milestone: ubuntu-10.04 = lucid-updates -- [Lucid Alpha 3] usb-creator.exe does not accept ISO selection on Windows XP system https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/527972 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 527972] Re: [Lucid Alpha 3] usb-creator.exe does not accept ISO selection on Windows XP system
@mgcul8r that's just another potential problem... the correct behaviour (for any of the tools, be it usb-creator, universal-usb- installer or unetbootin) should be to allow the user to select an iso uisng a standard file selection window and go from there... Limiting it to specific filenames (unless there's a reason for doing so, obviously) creates a usability problem when, as you've pointed out, the filenames aren't the same... and what about variants? For example, Ubuntu, Kubuntu and Xubuntu (at least on cdimages.ubuntu.com) all use the same file name (e.g. karmic- desktop-i386.iso) What if I want to pull each of those down, using save-as to get all three ISOs into one directory, build CDs and install to try them out to decide which I like better? That, IMHO at least, is reason enough to not tie them down to hard- coded specific file names. -- [Lucid Alpha 3] usb-creator.exe does not accept ISO selection on Windows XP system https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/527972 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

rename the iso to the EXACT NAME that universal-usb-installer-exe dissplays. i used it to make a bootable live usb stick with persistence. i noticed that the program looks for ubuntu-9.10-desktop i386.iso but the downloaded file name is ubuntu-9.10-desktop-i386.iso (notice it's missing the - between desktop and i386) just rename the file downloaded to the exact name its looking for, and it will work. -- [Lucid Alpha 3] usb-creator.exe does not accept ISO selection on Windows XP system https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/527972 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
