AdminStudio 3.5 Beta - Legacy Setup Conversion Wizard

😞 8/16/02 11:00

When using the "Legacy Setup Conversion Wizard" with a valid ZenWorks AXT file. The Wizard will go through the following steps then hang.

Converting Novell ZENworks file 'D:\Apps\Media\AppName.AXT'
*** BLAH BLAH BLAH. ***
Copy source Files...
'D:\Apps\Media\AppName.AXT' file was successfully converted to 'D:\Apps\Media\appTest.inc'

Converting: D:\Apps\Media\appTest.inc to: D:\Apps\Media\appTest.ism
Starting conversion
Creating project file
Checking version of template file 'C:\Program Files\InstallShield\AdminStudio\3.5\Developer\Support\0409\IsProjBlankTpl.ism'
Reading repackager output file

[HANGS]

If you cancel you can select finish.
If you select Edit Project Author opens to a blank project.
If you open the INC file Author hangs and you have to end the process.

This has happened to 2 appObject (24meg and 37meg Projects) I have tried to convert. I will try something smaller and post the results.

Well things are looking up I am now 1 for 3
I successfully converted a smal (6meg) application from an AXT. I had to do a little work on the installation source, but hey, I didn't have to rescript it from scratch.

1. Are you using the beta 2?
2. If possible, could you send us the AXT files that failed? We would like to know what caused the problem.
