Optional ReadMe Dialogue -Can't Find File

[A.Russell]

I am not sure if it is something I am doing, because the manual is a bit vague about this, but the rtf file that I select for the ReadMe cannot be found at build time:

Building package (en): C:\Documents and Settings\AR\My Documents\Installers\SpeechEnablePC.msi
Creating CAB file(s)... done.
Creating MSI database... error.
Exception - Reason: File not found: C:\Irrlicht\ASRtest\SAPI_Installer\ReadMe.rtf.

The file in question is certainly in that location.

The RTF file was created in Open Office. Using Advanced Installer Pro 3.6.1

Hi,

I believe the problem appears because the file is opened in Open Office at the time you build your package. Open Office opens the file in exclusive mode and this is what prevents AdvInst from successfully creating the MSI.

Solution: close Open Office and try building your package again.

Please let me know if this solves your problem.

Regards,
Denis

Thank you Denis.
