Qt app always installs onto C:/

[tamhanna]

Hi Folks,
I just had the strangest of experiences - my new app was rejected with this statement:

Comments from the QA team:
Failed QA.
ISSUE #1: SUMMARY: The application cannot be selected a specific drive for installation.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE:
1. Download the content.
2. Install the content.
ACTUAL RESULT: When installing the content, the content is installed to C: drive by default without prompt for selecting a specific drive during installation.
EXPECTED RESULT: The application can be installed successfully by selecting a specific drive.
AFFECTED DEVICES: All devices.
FREQUENCY REPRODUCED: 100%.

However, I have used but the pkg files as generated by Carbide. What is up here?

[symbianyucca]

check the pkg file, and see that it does not specify target Drive.

Hi Yucca,
I am just using the Carbide generated pkg files. In fact, when I was just installing the TypeGun.sis (not the installer package) on my phone, it was wellmannered and asked.

But, here is the inner pkg:

please check: http://info.publish.ovi.com/?p=886

the wrapper package should look like this in the end: http://doc.qt.nokia.com/smart-instal...er-format.html

[tamhanna]

Hi,
looks like I have been installing to c:/adm - the question is if this can really be the root of the problem.

Either way, big thanks - I will be in touch again shortly

You probably already noticed, but the testing UID 0xA000D7CE in the installer pkg should also be changed to the reserved wrapper package UID 0x2002CCCF.

[symbianyucca]

the UID does not matter, it only matters on signings, and with self-signing you can not use 0x2002CCCF.

You probably already noticed, but the testing UID 0xA000D7CE in the installer pkg should also be changed to the reserved wrapper package UID 0x2002CCCF.

Hi,
oh noes - looks like I forgot to change this UID as well.

My bad

[tamhanna]

Hi,
unfortunately, I still face the same error.

I used this pkg file:

; TypeGun_installer.pkg generated by qmake at 2011-08-07T21:14:15
; This file is generated by qmake and should not be modified by the user
;

; Language

; Localised Vendor name

; Unique Vendor name

[0x1028315F],0,0,0,{"S60ProductID"}
 


"C:/Symbian/Carbide/workspace/QtTypeGun2/TypeGun.sis" - "!:\private\2002CCCE\import\TypeGun.sis"
@"C:/Qt/4.6.3/smartinstaller.sis",(0x2002CCCD)

Looks like it is now time to change to the Qt Creator for real - I really preferred Carbide...
