BoingBag1 install problem
« on: February 27, 2008, 12:07:29 AM »
Hey Folks,

I just downloaded BoingBag1 for My 3.9 A1200 and when I launch the installer I get the following error:

Sorry___an error has occured!

Interpreter: Executing non-funtion in line 3.



Any ideas? This is the first time I've ever tried one of the boing bags.

I tried the installer on Boingbag2 and it launches fine and tells me I need BoingBag1?

System specs in signature.

i have absolutely no idea. but that is one useful sounding error message! reminds me of something mac...

on the other hand if you have the money and never resolve this here prob. there is a se (ver 2.) of os 3.9 with both boing bag updates already installed. ;-)

How far did you get before the error came up?

@Dave G

It comes up right after the install window comes up. Pretty much right away.

@Monami,

Yea, that does sound like an old school Mac error.

@spihunter

The first few lines of my install script are

;$VER: Boing Bag Install 45.8 (26.3.2001)

(effect "center" "radial" $FF0077 $AA8800)

(set #language (getenv "Language"))

(set #wbversion 0)
(set #wbversion (getversion "libs:version.library"))
(set #wbversion (/ #wbversion 65536) )

(set #iconversion 0)
(set #iconversion (getversion "icon.library" (resident)))
(set #iconversion (/ #iconversion 65536) )

(set #w (querydisplay "screen" "width"))
(set #h (querydisplay "screen" "height"))
(set #d (querydisplay "screen" "depth"))
(set #c (querydisplay "screen" "colors"))

(complete 0)

Are yours the same?

 Variable "Language" not set. Just this.

 Select one language on prefs: and try again.
Goodbye people.

I\'ll pop on from time to time, RL is acting up.

What version of installer are you using?  (Should be v44.10 or newer, but I'm not sure what the latest is...)
Time to move on.  Bye Amiga.org.  :(

Yea, I'm using Installer version 43.3 I'm going to try a newer version and see if that fixes it.

Thanks!

Did you uncompress using unarc os 3.9??  I have had it where that corrupts the unarchived files, use lha from shell to unarchive it.

i got mine from power but they are long gone in the amiga scene. it's important to note that the se cd (second edition.) is pink and not red like the first one.
