The toolset have been installing for the last hour and seems to be stuck at the stage of "Execute:regsvr32.exe /s "d:\\Dragon Age\\tools\\Engine.dll"

The install bar seems to be done, but nothing is happening.  Anyone else having this issue?

Win XP

At this step in the installation process, Windows will sometimes pop up a window asking for permission to allow regsvr to do its thing. Is it possible that this window popped up behind something and is waiting for your input?

Good catch there, Orkboy! I've only got a few log files in on this one but the pattern you spotted seems to be holding so far. I'll pass this along to see if that's the clue we needed. :)

Drat, I just got a log file for this error where the target drive was C:. Combo breaker.



Still, there are a lot of non-C drives in there. We'll keep working on this.

Alright, we're pretty sure at this point that it's regsvr32.exe that's hanging for some unknown reason. So if you encounter this problem on installing, open the task manager and kill regsvr32.exe. The installer should continue on installing after that's done. This could mean that engine.dll won't be registered, however, so you may need to do that manually.



To manually register the dll, go to "run" in your start menu and type in the following command:



regsvr32 "C:\\Program Files\\Dragon Age\\tools\\Engine.dll"



(or substitute the actual path to Engine.dll if it it's different from that). It should pop up a "success!" message. If it fails, it should hopefully pop up an error message that will tell us how to fix it once and for all. It should be safe to re-try this command over and over, registering the dll more than once is harmless.

The drive letters might still be relevant, we still don't know _why_ regsvr is eating its own face during these installs. It really shouldn't be doing that. :)

We never figured out why regsvr32 was sometimes failing in the first place, as far as I know, so I'll pass this problem along and we'll take another look at it to see if we can figure out this particular aspect of the problem.
