I've been using libre portable for years. Never an install problem
(either fresh or upgrade installs). Last working install I have is:
4.3.5.2, multilingualStandard, "remove languages" option,
installing to "j:\" (root of a partition)
windows xp, sp3
Today I have tried installing both 4.4.3 and 4.4.2,
both have install errors.
Initially I tried installing 4.4.3 into(onto/upgrade) my 4.3.5.2 directory.
When that didn't work I tried putting 4.4.2 over 4352. Nope.
I then tried installing fresh copies of both 443 and 442 into new/clean directories.
("j:\LibreOfficePortable")
Still errors.
The installer will proceed about halfway then result in error dialog:
"Extract: error writing to file xxx". ("OK" is only option on dialog)
More often than not 'xxx' will be "_0.cfs" (see log).
But I HAVE received the error with a different filename
on at least one attempt (I have tried this about five times).
Sorry...didn't record the filename or log on that time.
After clicking "ok" on error dialog the only possible option
from the installer screen is to then click CANCEL and exit
installer. Any ideas??? Did something about the installer
change recently? (Seeing the error on more than one
distribution and ALSO seeing it happen on more than
one specific file would suggest the problem is installer
based and not file specific. There also doesn't seem
to be a fixed point when then error will be thrown
during an install. Perhaps this is some sort of timing
conflict or concurrency issue?)
(My hard drive, computer, filesystem, etc are functioning
fine with no hardware problems. No free space problem.
I have also downloaded multiple copies of
both 4.4.3 and 4.4.2 (including from sites other than
portableapps) so this is not a corruption issue.)
