Title: Install problems with 6.5.1
Post by Peter L Jones on Feb 3^rd, 2003, 3:30pm

Okay, I think I understand what's happened...

I installed MIDI-OX 6.5.1 over a running 6.5 install and, as expected, I was asked to reboot to complete the installation. (Makes sense.)

At that point, I'd had MIDI-OX *and* MIDIBar running.

I rebooted. MIDIBar hadn't installed. Looks like there's a small bug in the install there - it should have scheduled both MIDI-OX and MIDIBar installs for during the reboot.

So I uninstalled and then re-installed and got MIDIBar okay.

*shrug*

Thanks for the report. What OS was this installed on? It also occurs to me that the MIDIBar code didn't change, nor the file version (although the product version did change), so the installer may have considered it up-to-date?

Win98 (not SE).

Could be -- if it used a different bit of logic to decide on the uninstall than used to decide on the install...
