Package and Deployment - wininet.dll

[Mungovan]

Hi.
I've finished my application and have ran the package and deployment program.

Then, I try to install the program and it goes grand for a little bit. But half way through the installation an error comes up saying:
"The file C:\WINDOWS\System32\wininet.dll is being used by another program. Make sure all applications are not running"

But there is no other programs running. I even disconnected form the LAN.

It then won't let me finish off the installation.

Any ideas??

Thanks
D

Do you have a Firewall in progress or even possibly a virus checker? This could be interfering with your progress. It may be an idea to try using a proprietory installation package like Installshield or Wise (there are others) because the supplied Deployment is p r e t t y basic, although this does rack up an extra bill for you....

MS Installer is free. So is INNO. And they are both better than P&DW!

I get error messages all the time using the P&DW. Usually if I just click the yes's or ignore's, it keeps on running and all is well.

But I just tried the INNO installer, and I like it a heck of a lot better.

It makes a single *.exe.

Takes a little getting used to, but I highly recommend it (based on just one program packaged today).

And speaking of virus checkers, check for viruses!
