I get this error since i remove 1.2.2

[Stygian]

Hello Everyone,

I never get this error before. Can someone help me?

Back story:
I removed Lazarus 1.2.2 and I want to install 1.2.4. After I install I get this error "TFPCUnitToSrcCache.GetConfigCache missing TestFilename"

System: Windows Server 2008 R2 x64

I Tried to install: "lazarus-1.2.4-fpc-2.6.4-win32"

Thank You,
Sty

Sometimes things like this happen because the deinstaller leaves the configuration files. Recent lazaruses improve on this, but not all packages might do this properly.

Try to

• deinstall everything
• backup and delete %userprofile%\AppData\Local\lazarus
• reinstall lazarus

[Stygian]

Already tried that .

The only problem I can't uninstall it because i get an error message:
"Unable to create a temporary file. Setp aborted
Error 5: Access deined"

So I delete it from C root, remove user profile settins, remove from registry.

I already run a CCleaner, but the error won't gone.

Regards,
Sty

maybe there is another such dir in the "all users" profile?

[Stygian]

There is not any other dir anywhere.
Try reinstall it again but the error is the same.

I has the exact same problem.
Does anyone have a solution?

Does nobody have a solution to this problem?
I simply can not get Lazarus IDE working on my Windows 7 computer.

Works great on my little Raspberry Pi board with Raspbian "wheezy"

If I read this thread again it sounds like Lazarus isn't allowed to write in the %TEMP% directory for its temporary files.

Is there anything special about these machines? Corporate machines that are connected to a domain with atypical permissions?

I have noticed that teh path %userprofile%\AppData\Local\lazarus is not created during installation.

I have considered the problem may be that the installer can not handle the Danish letters in my user profile.
My name is Allan Lund Sørensen, so the path will be:

     C:\Users\Allan Lund Sørensen\AppData\Local\lazarus

The same applies to %TEMP% which is:

     C:\Users\Allan Lund Sørensen\AppData\Local\Temp

My guess that depends on your locale. If you have a locale where ø is part of the 1-byte OEM codepage, it should work.

If you have e.g. an US locale, it might not.

I have an DA locale (Danish).
I just wonder why the path %userprofile%\AppData\Local\lazarus is not created during installation.

If I try to uninstall lazarus uninstaller can not find %TEMP%

default locale for ansi applications what is it?

I do not understand your question

In my windows 8 I open "control panel\Language" in there I press the "change date time and number formats" link on the right which opens the region dialog and in the adminitration tab I can set the locale for none unicode programs. see attachment.

OK.
As mentioned earlier, I have a Danish Windows so "Current system locale" is Danmark.
