B1DE / Installer ..

[Former Member]

Just migrated my development environment to a new PC and i'm having problems generating an addon intsaller ..

I use the wizard in B1DE with the VB B1 Addon Installer .. It asks for my project name and then my executable .. but then aborts with "the template specified cannot be found. Please Check that the full path is correct" .. I've uninstalled and reinstalled the B1DE kit but i'm still having same problem .. Anyone any ideas ? Which path is it talking about ?

Thanks !

Hi Rob Morning ,

I think you shoul restart your machine after installing the B1DE tool.

Just do it.

It will be helpful to you.

Thanks for the tip but i tried that and it didn't work ..

Strange thing is that i can use the other templates to generate applications without any problems - ut's only thetemplates used to install an add on i have problems with ..

Any other ideas ? I'm on 2007 A SP 15 by the way ..

Did you downloaded the latest B1DE? I know there came out with an update a couple a months ago.

Hi Rob,

Please try looking under the following registry key:

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\SAP\SAP Business One Development Environment\SAP Business One AddOnInstaller Wizards]

Within this you should see subkeys for the installer project paths. If you've installed the B1DE using the path defaults then the two installer paths should be:

C:\Program Files\SAP\SAP Business One Development Environment\SAP Business One AddOnInstaller Wizards\SAP Business One AddOnInstaller .NET Wizard\

and

C:\Program Files\SAP\SAP Business One Development Environment\SAP Business One AddOnInstaller Wizards\SAP Business One AddOnInstaller Setup .NET Wizard\

Thanks for trying to help , but I'd checked those already and found them to be correct .. If it helps when i run the addon installer builder I get a project created with a number of sub folders - one with the name of my addon builder (default 'B1AddOnInstallerSetupNet1') and another 'CustomerLibrary' .. The structure within these is the same - each contains 'bin','My Project' and 'obj' (all empty) along with number of vb files .. It's after these are constructed that it aborts with the message 'The template specified cannot be found. Please check that the full path is correct' .. If I look at the code in the 'CustomLibrary' folder I can see that it has created a AddOnInstallInfo.vb file with data relating to my project (AddonName, PartnerName .. etc) though i'm not sure how far thru the generation process it's getting .. Any additional help would be gratefully received , it's becomming pressing now .. I'm from a Java background so the vb generation is a little beyond me just now ..
