Problem creating PAF installer for Eclipse

Submitted by RaYell on May 3, 2008 - 6:04am

Hi!

I've been trying to create a PAF installer for Eclipse but I go the following error while executing it. I took the installer script from 7-Zip Portable and I use it to create some PAF installers already but this is not working with Eclipse.

The error is:

File: failed opening file "..\..\App\Eclipse\plugins\org.eclipse.platform.source_3.3.3.r33x_r20080129-_19UEl7Ezk_gXF1kouft\src\org.eclipse.core.runtime.compatibility.registry_3.2.100.v20070316\runtime_registry_compatibilitysrc.zip"
Error in script "D:\Projekty\Eclipse Portable\Other\EclipsePortableSources\PortableApps.comInstaller.nsi" on line 249 -- aborting creation process

I checked that this file exists and I can access it using 7-Zip.

Does anyone know what might be the problem?

Are you aware that John has already made it though?

He is just waiting for the finalisation of PA/Java integration methods, I believe.

Comment, John?
