2519.0. "Fatal Error during HW4.0.1 installation" by DECPRG::KUPKA () Fri Jul 14 1995 08:23

    I have copied the HW4.0.1 kit over the network (FTSV), made
    instalaltion disks and tried to install on PC with PW5 and WFW 3.11.
    	Regardless the inst selection ( with or without network )
    installation fails with "Fatal Error at script line 755 , Invalid
    Dialog Type" (DISK1 inside).
    
    Any idea?

2519.1Verify file sizeNETCAD::WAGNERCOFFILFri Jul 14 1995 13:224
	Did you verify the size of the files that you are using to install 
	and the ones on NAC::?? A file may be corrupt.

2519.2Copy using /binary, /image switch?NETCAD::WAGNERCOFFILFri Jul 14 1995 14:056
	Did you copy using the appropriate /binary, /image switch??
	For PROBEwatch too??

	Otherwise, it sounds like a resource issue.

2519.4I have the same problemISIDRO::PALOMINOMon Aug 07 1995 08:4520
    I have the same problem with a customer kit of Hubwatch v4.0.1 received
    last week. When I try to install it in any pc with Wfwg 3.11, msdos
    6.22 I get the fatal error at script line 755, invalid dialog line.
    
    If I comment the line 755 in script hubw40.inf the error disappears on
    that line but appears on the following line with that sintax (i.e :
    CText @xy(5,1) 200 8 "Please choose your installation directory for ")
    
    If I comment out all the occurrences of the CText @xy... line in the
    script the installation seems to work, it installs icons and copies
    files read_me.txt, hubwatch.exe and creates directories but no other
    files are created; in that case I get the error "nonfatal error at
    script line 819, source file not found".
    
    I am not familiar with instalit tool used to install the kit but I
    think the problem is related to the sintax used.
    
    Any idea to solve the problem?

2519.6It's ok nowISIDRO::PALOMINOMon Aug 07 1995 12:196
    I am using spanish keyboard and language version. 
    Anyway, I have found a solution to my problem: if I comment all the lines 
    starting with CText in the script file I can install the software.
    Thanks,
