Unable to install .sis on the emulator/device

[shrads]

Hello,
I am using S60 3rd Edition SDK for Symbian OS and Carbide v1.3
I have compiled a sample application for the emulator and it works with no errors. But if I compile the same application for GCCE it gives me a set of warnings and when i try to install this .sis file on to my emulator it gives me "File Corrupted" dialog.
This is the build log.

***SIS Creation Complete

I dont know if these warnings play any role in the sis not working. Also the process till signsis has got no errors.
Can any one tell me why isn't the .sis getting installed on the emulator or on a mobile device.

Welcome to the Forum!!

For phone, use gcce urel rather than udeb(if you dont plan to debug on device) and install the signed sis file on the device.

On emulator, build it for winscw udeb, and if everything goes as well, you might find your application in the applications folder (provided you have everything in place like the registration file, and other resources)

[Symbian_Neil]

Another note : Try using the S60 3rd MR rather than the S60 3rd.

Hi,
Thanks for the prompt reply.
But can i use the same .sis to install the app on emulator instead of the device?

[shrads]

Are there any known issues if we use 3rd edition..??

Hi,

Well if you build it for winscw udeb and create a sis file its possible. You might need this info also in addition

[shrads]

I did try with urel instead of udeb but still I am getting File Corrupted Dialog while installing the application.
Do I need to change any thing in the .pkg file..??

[Symbian_Neil]

The MR was made public after a few bugs/known issues were fixed in the first release. Well, all developers use the Maintainance release to avoid possible glitches.

I guess you are not installing your sis file on S60 3rd edition phone, are you?

[Mr.Y]

shrads: check that your sis is signed and that you are copying your files to the right places. For example, the common mistake is to copy all files (not only binaries) to sys\bin

[shrads]

@kiran: I am trying to install the .sis on the emulator itself which is giving me "File Corrupted" error.

@Mr Y: I am copying the .sisx file to ..\S60_3rd\Epoc32\winscw\c\Data\Installs

and my .pkg file entries are:

Well if you had made the efforts to read my message above more carefully, you would have already solved the issue. The one I am referring to is :

[shrads]

Thanks Neil,
Did exactly as u said and now it works

[Symbian_Neil]

Thanks Neil,

Glad it saved some time

Good Luck!

Generally Sis files should be installed on real device rather than on Emulator. If you are creating new application in Carbide.c++ then build it for WINSCW UDEB (Emulator build) and you would find your application in Emulator. You can play from there. You do not have to install your application to test it.
