No mail, but I bought at 2.30 in 2001

Hi,

2 points:

1/ I bought a 3.81 just a few weeks ago and I did recieve a login and password for connection and further downloads. Anyhow, this does not work. Message is always "Invalid password or user account".

2/ to install PB 3.89 beta 2, informations are to install over a registered version. I did this and it creates a file "update" in the Pb directory. I just copy/paste the new files over the others.
I hope this is correct. Can you confirm ?

Now, my pblm is no PB constant are recognized. What did I missed ? and which corrections should I make ?

Thanks,

Fiwip

With all do respect.. I think the updates suck. I would prefer a regular
install with any version, beta or not. Come talk to me, I'll keep this
thought for a LONG time..

Sorry, I don't know if you are talking to me or what is eventually wrong with the updates or if my english is not quite understandable but I am not the guy in charge of.

I just want somebody to confirm what I did and what are the corrections to make PB constants available again.

On another hand I agree with you a regular install would be a more easier way for updating.

Just posting to register that I didn't get the email/s either!

I'm sorry, I'm not able to help. As I don't have Beta 2 installed..

What's the trouble with the updates? You unpack it, run the UpdateTool, hit the 'Update' button, and that's it.

Each final version is avaiable as a full download anyway, and as for the betas,
I don't see the point why you need a full install for that.

Fiwip: don't just copy & paste. Unpack the zip to a seperate folder, and run the updatetool from there.

Timo: thanks for your clear answer but ...

Fiwip: don't just copy & paste. Unpack the zip to a seperate folder, and run the updatetool from there.

I erase the one I did with copy/paste, install a new 3.81 properly and did exactly what you explain.

Now when I run PB directly or through JaPbe, I get this message : Constant already declared with a different value: #FILE_ATTRIBUTE_ENCRYPTED.

Then PB close or in JaPbe everything related to the compiler is disabled.

What's going on ?

Fiwip:
There is a conflict with the file 'WinConstantsToPB.res' (Residents folder).
(I think it is installed by jaPBe)
Just remove that one and it should run fine.

You have a residents file with that constant already declared in it.
move all .res file out of the residents dir and update again, should fix it

Fred,

Can you syncronize the last version of PureBasic with Last version of Visual Designer, please ?

Thanks in Advance.

@Timo & Bericko

That was the point, many thanks, evrything is working now.

BTW, by erasing this file: do we loose something ?

Fp

Hum, some of you went a little bit off topic here
Please continue your discussion here: viewtopic.php?t=10229

I just got a link to the full version, nothing more.

Fred, can you get in touch with my username, password, and update location url?

no, it will be done when needed.

Sharanna: thx for the mess
