Trouble with current version


Recommended Posts

Posted

Hey folks,

I keep all of my HFSLIP info in one master folder.

I sometimes want to make an IE6 configuration, sometimes FDVFILESET, sometimes I want to have no DirectX9 for testing purposes, etc etc etc etc etc etc.

Anyway, if I want no DirectX, I rename HFCABS to HFCABS-NO and create a new empty HFCABS.

If I want to test just ONE hotfix, I rename HF to HF-NO and make a new HF with just the one file.

I just ran HFSLIP and I got all sorts of bizarre problems. It tried to make SOURCESS a file, not a directory. It said it could not access files it parses like TXTSETUP (obviously) because somehow it made SOURCESS a blank, zero byte file.

This used to work fine before I started renaming my folders. I just ran again after actually moving these 'do not use' folders... So I answered my own question. I guess the key here is that if you want to run different configs from time to time, you need to proeceed the folder with a lot of XXXXX's.

I'm also renaming folders during tests but have never experienced that.

Do you mind using the new test release (80327a) and trying to duplicate the problem again?
