"Unhandled exception has occurred in your application" when install applications SOLVED

[Guest murdock01]

Link to problem and a screenshot:

https://ketarin.org/forum/index.php/topic/804-unhandled-exception-has-occurred-in-your-application-when-install-aplications/

 

After exporting my config and completely rebuilding several times to find the problem I have found it.

My setup point to a "dynamic" download directory using the {root} variable. My dynamic directory was defined as a global variable as dwnload_dir = {root}\Install.

Everything worked fine but I would throw an exception when ever I clicked the install button. I would also get a generic icon for all my define apps (see the screenshot for the above link).

 

The resolution is the {root} variable. {root} will resolve to something like c:\

Well my global variable also has a slash so the result would look something like c:\\install. Ketarin still worked but it screwed up the install function.

I remove the extra slash from my global variable. I also force downloaded all my apps again.

 

Now I get proper icons and the install function works.

I also check the screenshot and it looks like his target has the "extra" slash.

 

Hope this helps.

Thank you for reporting the issue and resolution.

 

Flo, would it be possible to pre-parse variables to replace "\\" with "\" in path names?
