Did you have problems with "put URL into URL"?
I didn't try using 'put URL' as I might be copying folders. I just
modified the rev handlers to use robocopy on Vista and put them into
my own libraries. I imagine put URL would not break though as it uses
the system calls (internet libraries I believe).
Good question. Does it really do that for files not being transferred
via HTTP/FTP?
I've had a mysterious bug with a product we develop in which installing
from a local machine to a shared network volume often results in the
application not being able to find its accompanying files when run on
the client from that server.
The installer is a custom one we built with Rev, using "open
file...","write...", and "close file..." to copy files from a CD to the
volume. We check for errors when we open the target file for write, and
never have an error reported during install. It's only after an
apparently-successful install that we learn that something went wrong.
The workaround for the subset of affected systems is to install locally
and then copy to the server. In that case it works well, but since the
files are all the same it's been mystifying to try to find out what's
failing.
More mysterious is that in the two cases we've found this issue both the
client and the server were running XP, not Vista.
Got any insight as to why that could be failing?
