Insufficient Space
-
Just one of a series of problems I had installing Lotus Symphony. (The first being that I was told a directory with 755 perms wasn't readable). This one got me laughing though...
First, it's 509M. Then, it's 965M. Then, 11G isn't enough space. How big is it, anyway?

Select a drive with less than 4 GB (or possiby 2 GB) free instead. Integer overflow really bites sometimes.

If that is indeed the problem, why did they convert the integers that failed the check to a format that doesn't before displaying them?

I had an installer recently claim that I had 540MB free space.
It wasn't an overflow, it actually meant 540GB.
I don't know whether the size test was also broken because it was only a 5MB program.

Fixed that for you.

Also, if you strike the 4096s out of 17375 you still end up with 1447MB - still big enough.

Perfectionism?

On my new laptop, I installed VB6 for some legacy apps...I was a bit ticked when it told me I only had something like 9G free. Granted, more than enough for most of what I wanted, but I still had to install VS2005 and some other stuff. So I was going to wait and see how things played out.
After VB6 was done, I pulled up explorer to find out it was really closer to 90G free, VB6 just couldn't handle that much free space I guess. Studio 2005 got the number right though.
/I know, I know TRWTF is VB

So how is SSDS coming along?

And you are continuing to try and install this crap for what reason?
