Hey there.
I can't install the IP2.6 RC1 msi. When the install is mostly done, it
suddenly fails and rolls back. I can use the binary zip file instead of
the msi, but wanted to ask if this is a problem anyone else was having.
At the end of the failed install and roll-back it produces a dialog:
IromPython 2.6 Setup Wizard ended prematurely
because of an error.
So I got a logfile of the install:
msiexec /i IronPython-2.6.msi /log install.log
which produces verbose output, including:
...

ExecNetFx: Error 0x80070005: Command failed to execute.

MSI (c) (28:6C) [15:59:24:453]: Product: IronPython 2.6 -- Installation
failed.
I'd like to try running the allegedly failing ngen command from a prompt:
C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727\ngen.exe install
"C:\Program Files\IronPython 2.6\Microsoft.Scripting.dll" /queue:1
but of course since the install rolls back, the file
"Microsoft.Scripting.dll" no longer exists, so I can't. However, I can
manually ngen *other* assemblies using a command exactly like this. The
path to ngen.exe is correct, and the parameters to the command are
correct, so I don't understand why this ngen might be failing.
Upon further investigation, trying to *un*install the IP2.0.2 msi also
fails and does the same thing. I currently don't know how I'm going to
get that uninstalled except by some sort of 'rm -rf' style extreme
prejudice.
Install and uninstall of other programs seems to work ok.
Is it just me? Thoughts very welcome.
