The app has been updated to 8.0 build 904 DT 2. See release notes for details.
Get a MsgBox with "...App\RapidEE\rapidee.exe could not be found".
rapideeX64.exe and rapideeX86.exe exist in the RapidEE directory but no rapidee.exe. If I manually copy rapideeX86.exe to rapidee.exe it works fine.
Windows 7 32 bit PC, install path F:\PortableApps\RapidEEPortable
Thanks for doing this app by the way.
I ran into this issue myself with dev test 1, and seemed to have fixed it in my testing with Dev test 2. Can you confirm that you are indeed running Dev test 2?
in App/appinfo.INI, the PackageVersion line should read 8.0 build 904 Dev Test 2.
If it doesn't, please upgrade to Dev test 2 and try again.
Same issue as RogerL, but on windows 7 pro 64bit.

It amazes me that on the internet you can be anything you want, and yet so many people still choose to be idiots.
See my reply to RogerL above.
This is from my Appinfo.ini
PackageVersion=7.99.904.802
DisplayVersion=8.0 build 904 Development Test 2
I have tried deleting and reinstalling, with the same result.

OK, I found the problem. I needed to change $INSTDIR to $EXDIR in Custom.nsh. I'm uploading a new DT now.
That did the trick!

Great, glad that fixed it. I must've been tired when I fixed it originally, because I could've sworn I made that change already, but evidently not.
Another option is to just run them instead of renaming them by using ProgramExecutable64
This can be done by removing Custom.nsh and replacing
with
Normally, yes, this would be the case. In this case, however, the program itself expects rapidee.exe. In the base app, the x86 and x64 versions are distributed separately and both executables are named rapidee.exe. They have been renamed so they can be distributed together.
See release notes for details. Note that this app now runs correctly, both running normally on a vanilla Win 7 x86 system, as well as running as admin on the same setup.
I use RapidEE all the time at work. I'll gladly help test it out.
The base app has been updated to build 919.
Can the base app be updated? It's at 9.2 build 937
Base app update to 9.2 build 937
Thanks Gord
Hi,
RapidEE doesn't show up in the portableapps app, or on the web site app list. How do I download the latest? Why doesn't it show up?
Thanks,
Wes
