No response

What version of Windows are you using? What happens exactly when you try to run the installer? Do you see any window open at all?

Neipas09 · 2022-02-13T23:28:10Z

I'm using Windows 10. [image: image.png] The vidcoder splash screen pops up. It says installing with a progress bar. [image: image.png] The bar seems to go all the way to the end. But there's nothing after that. No icon on the desktop. Nothing is found when i search for vidcoder to run it.

same issue here. Fully updated Windows 10. The installer runs, then the program wont start - nothing in task manager either. Completely uninstalled and removed registry traces doesn't change the issue.

RandomEngy · 2022-02-14T00:01:00Z

When you go to %localappdata%\VidCoder.Stable do you see files there? It should look something like this:

Trying to figure out how far the installer got.

starkebn · 2022-02-14T00:05:48Z

I had previously used an uninstall tool to clean everything away, so there was nothing there. Just ran the installer again and while it still doesn't load, this is in the directory

RandomEngy · 2022-02-14T00:10:10Z

Okay can you open a command prompt/powershell/windows terminal to the VidCoder.Stable directory and try these commands?

Update.exe --squirrel-install 7.10.0
Update.exe --squirrel-firstrun

Let me know if any shortcuts get created when running it manually, or if anything shows up in the command line output.

RandomEngy · 2022-02-14T00:11:26Z

Oh also check %appdata%\VidCoder\Logs for an Install.txt (that should be near the bottom of the list)

starkebn · 2022-02-14T00:31:50Z

are you sure that syntax is correct? It just prints out the help and I have to control-C to get a command line back.

and there's no folder in \roaming for vidcoder at all, so no log file

RandomEngy · 2022-02-14T02:51:25Z

Okay that's good to know as well. That means that it never ran the "on install" actions for VidCoder. It got hung up in some earlier step.

As for the command line, I actually had not tried it. But I did find another place to look for logs: %localappdata%\SquirrelClowdTemp . There should be a Squirrel.log file in there.

caesay · 2022-02-14T09:27:28Z

From the log on my system when installing 7.10 (in %localappdata%\SquirrelClowdTemp)

2022-02-14 09:16:50.6481 [ERROR] - ApplyReleasesImpl: Couldn't run Squirrel hook, continuing: C:\Users\Caelan\AppData\Local\VidCoder.Stable\app-7.10.0\VidCoder.exe: System.OperationCanceledException: The operation was canceled.

   at Squirrel.UpdateManager.ApplyReleasesImpl.<>c__DisplayClass10_0.<<invokePostInstall>b__0>d.MoveNext() in ./UpdateManager.ApplyReleases.cs:line 408

This means that the Squirrel install was successful, but the hooks failed to run meaning shortcuts did not get created. OperationCanceledException usually means that Squirrel executed the command line instruction Vidcoder.exe --squirrel-install 7.10.0 successfully, but that the operation timed out. Squirrel only gives your application 15 seconds to run hooks and install shortcuts.

Additionally, running the command Vidcoder.exe --squirrel-install 7.10.0 manually does not create shortcuts as expected. Squirrel only automatically creates shortcuts if there are no SquirrelAware apps. If there are SquirrelAware apps, it expects you to do this yourself - so shortcuts must be created in the hook.

I should note that the only thing that appears to have failed is the shortcut creation. The files were extracted successfully, uninstall entries were created and normal uninstallation was possible through Apps & Features. Additionally, running Update.exe --uninstall can trigger a manual uninstall and clean-up if the uninstall entry was missing in Apps & Features.

Milincho · 2022-02-14T14:08:24Z

Same here. But it is not just the installation. Downloaded the .zip and extracted it to a folder. Ran it and vicoder.exe shows up in task manager... and unloads without stating any error. Very "stable".

7.8 works, 7.9 and 7.10 do not:

RandomEngy · 2022-02-15T03:12:50Z

Thanks for the logs. This doesn't reproduce for me when I run the .exe or when I run via command line via Vidcoder.exe --squirrel-install 7.10.0, so all the help is appreciated.

Here is my code to run on install:

public static void HandleSquirrelEvents()
{
	SquirrelAwareApp.HandleEvents(onInitialInstall: OnInitialInstall, onAppUninstall: OnAppUninstall);
}

private static void OnInitialInstall(SemanticVersion version, IAppTools tools)
{
	var logger = new SetupLogger("Install");
	logger.Log("Running initial install actions...");

	try
	{
		using var mgr = new UpdateManager(Utilities.SquirrelUpdateUrl);
		mgr.CreateUninstallerRegistryEntry();
		mgr.CreateShortcutForThisExe(ShortcutLocation.StartMenu | ShortcutLocation.Desktop);

		CopyIconFilesToRoot(logger);

		RunElevatedSetup(install: true, logger);
		logger.Log("Initial install actions complete.");
	}
	catch (Exception exception)
	{
		logger.Log(exception.ToString());
		throw;
	}
	finally
	{
		logger.Close();
	}
}

It sounds like the uninstaller registry entries were created successfully, but from @starkebn 's screenshot, the icons didn't get copied to the root folder. So if this is hanging, it must be hanging on the mgr.CreateShortcutForThisExe(ShortcutLocation.StartMenu | ShortcutLocation.Desktop); call.

@caesay did you see anything in %appdata%\VidCoder\Logs folder after you ran it? It should have at least created that folder, as that's part of the SetupLogger constructor.

caesay · 2022-02-15T08:27:17Z

@RandomEngy The log folder is not created. Running the program with or without arguments fails to create the logs folder (I checked roaming and local appdata), nor does it show any window. I suspected the process is failing to start due to a missing dependency or hanging somewhere before the Squirrel hooks even run.

Looking at event viewer after trying to launch VidCoder.exe, there are several errors - but the one of primary interest is probably this:

Application: VidCoder.exe
CoreCLR Version: 6.0.121.56705
.NET Version: 6.0.1
Description: The process was terminated due to an unhandled exception.
Exception Info: System.IO.FileLoadException: Could not load file or assembly 'PresentationFramework, Version=6.0.2.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31bf3856ad364e35'. The located assembly's manifest definition does not match the assembly reference. (0x80131040)
File name: 'PresentationFramework, Version=6.0.2.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31bf3856ad364e35'

Notably, the reference is looking for 6.0.2 and I only have 6.0.1 installed. My impression was that these .net patches were incremental and compatible patches - eg security updates, and not feature/breaking changes requiring reference updates, so I wouldn't have expected an error like this.

Installing the x64 desktop runtime 6.0.2 manually solved the error and VidCoder.exe was able to start.

Looking at the dotnet manifest in ildasm (https://bin.caesay.com/kikezurisu.txt) it seems WPF and WinForms are requiring the 6.0.2 assemblies, but nothing else seems to. Binding redirects are not supported in dotnet core, so I'm not even sure if you could patch this at runtime to use 6.0.1 etc.

The current Squirrel logic when checking for installed runtimes during setup will accept any version of 6.0.* as valid when installing. I suppose the logic could be to always install the latest dotnet runtime if the currently installed version is not the latest, but that feels less than optimal. Thoughts?

The alternative, I suppose, is requiring people to be more specific about what net version their app uses (eg --framework net602 instead of just --framework net6) or try to read the metadata for each dll in the package and detect the highest needed version automatically.

Milincho · 2022-02-15T09:23:39Z

Same here, after manually installing the x64 desktop runtime 6.0.2 now version 7.10 works.

RandomEngy · 2022-02-15T18:56:48Z

Good catch! I'd be fine with specifying a specific version to target. That would negate the need to embed more tools in the installer to go snooping around DLLs.

starkebn · 2022-02-15T21:53:46Z

7.11 is loading fine

Neipas09 · 2022-02-15T22:27:44Z

Installing 7.11.exe doesn't work when trying to update from version 6.46

RandomEngy · 2022-02-15T23:00:18Z

@Neipas09 When you say "doesn't work", what are you seeing? Is it getting stuck? Closing? Do you see an error message? Did you try manually installing the .NET x64 Desktop Runtime 6.0.2?

caesay · 2022-02-16T01:02:09Z

After installing .net 6.0.2 I was able to install 6.46, follow the update prompts and get upgraded to 7.10 (and then subsequently 7.11 right afterwards). The old application got cleaned up successfully and the new version was launched. Presumably for anyone without 6.0.2, the old version of vidcoder will not be removed properly.

I'm working on something for Squirrel to allow a min dotnet version to be specified when building your installer, I should be able to publish an update for this tomorrow or the day after. If you're looking for a fix faster than that, you could re-build VidCoder against 6.0.0 instead of 6.0.2.

Neipas09 · 2022-02-16T03:36:42Z

I did install .NET 6.0.2

I tried installing 7.11 after that, and it puts files into %localappdata%\VidCoder.Stable

But when i try to run the Vidcoder.exe nothing opens.

Neipas09 · 2022-02-16T03:57:39Z

The old application got cleaned up successfully and the new version was launched. Presumably for anyone without 6.0.2, the old version of vidcoder will not be removed properly.

I tried this, and could never get 7.10 to run.
It keeps running v6.46 and saying there's an update for 7.10 no matter how many times i tell it to update.

RandomEngy · 2022-02-16T06:24:03Z

You need to install the .NET 6.0.2 Desktop Runtime.

Neipas09 · 2022-02-16T14:44:38Z

You need to instant the .NET 6.0.2 Desktop Runtime.

ooooh.... :-/
if this specific version of .NET is soooo important, then why isn't the vidcoder installer installing it?

RandomEngy · 2022-02-16T15:21:18Z

caesay is in this thread and works on the installer framework that VidCoder is switching to. It's supposed to install the appropriate version of the .NET framework automatically but currently there is an issue where it doesn't work in all circumstances. He's working on a fix in the next few days and I'll pick it up for VidCoder after it's ready.

caesay · 2022-02-18T12:55:36Z

@RandomEngy Fixes for this have been released in 2.8.1-pre. I have used your application to test this (hope you don't mind) as well as one of my own. Please review the comments in the release notes and the attached issue for more details.

RandomEngy · 2022-02-19T06:30:04Z

I've released VidCoder 7.12 which uses 2.8.1-pre and is packed using --framework net6.0.2-x64. I also updated the Inno Setup bridge version to point to 7.12 so anyone still on an old version will skip over the problematic earlier releases.

caesay · 2022-03-05T20:11:38Z

@RandomEngy Just wanted to add, it turns out this is actually a bug in the 6.0.200 SDK (rather than an issue with the approach we had in Squirrel).

Can see here dotnet/wpf#6109 and dotnet/winforms#6663.

I think I will keep the changes made to Squirrel, because I believe they were good changes to have anyway (adding a warning to detect this when it happens, and allowing more specificity when selecting a dotnet runtime)... However, in the future, when this issue with the SDK is resolved (or by employing the workaround mentioned at one of those links) you can revert back to just using --framework net6 and your app will work just fine.

Thanks for the update. I'll change back to net6-x64 when they fix the issue.
