Random Crash of NSIS-Installer

LSI_RiedelSeptember 8, 2010 at 12:44 PM#

Dear All,

we have a problem with our Installscript and I hope someone can help me.
On Win Vista/7 32/64 the Installer randomly crashes.
It seems the problem is our Photoshop Section. If we uncheck this section all seems ok.

This is the error. Also see the attached screenshot.

Is there any error in our syntax for this section or does anyone have similar problems?

Thanks for help

Please use pastebin to add large amounts of code.

If NSIS ever crashes the first place to look would be at the plug-ins. In this case I'd say it's locate. If you can, rebuild the plug-in as a debug DLL and debug in VS (attach to process).

Well, I'd like to edit my message accordingly (ie. pastebin), but it seems the edit pencil symbol isn't present, although I'm logged in. Please help out with this.

Edit:
And in posting this second message, I'll find the edit button is present with it only.
Please explain, as I'm new to this forum. Thanks so much in advance.

There is a time limit on edits

Dear Anders

Thanks, I see. Well, I have to remove the code published above from the forum. Guess I'll be in touch with the forum moderator then...

DrOSeptember 10, 2010 at 2:30 PM#

what do you need edited and in which post(s) ?

He wants to replace the code he pasted with a pastebin link. LSI_Riedel, don't worry too much about it - just use pastebin the next time.

Hi LSI_Riedel,

Were you able to find the root cause of the crash? I see very similar issue with my appplication.

Thanks!
