code:
!insertmacro MUI_DESCRIPTION_TEXT ${OPTIONAL01SECTION} "${OPTIONAL01SECTIONDESCRIPTION}"

The macro MUI_DESCRIPTION_TEXT fails because you haven't defined OPTIONAL01SECTION.

You should have defined it this way:

code:
Section /o OPTIONAL01SECTION

Look again in to my code (it is based on PortableApps.com). I'm sure that I defined all OPTIONAL__SECTIONTITLE and OPTIONAL__SECTIONDESCRIPTION at the begining.

Than I wanna call those strings in components select page in NSIS installer.

When I tried your way, i got installer without titles and without descriptions on components select page, so you're wrong.

I'm not sure what you're seeing, but I'm not seeing the same thing...

I see you have Optional##SectionTitle and OPTIONAL##SECTIONDESCRIPTION defined, but not Optional##Section. Your section names are using OPTIONAL##SECTIONTITLE syntax. You need to either change your section definitions or change the MUI_DESCRIPTION_TEXT lines.

Let's try this again. The Section command takes these (optional) parameters:

the 'start unselected' flag ("/o")
a string to be defined (a section index) to refer to this section later
the title to display beside the checkbox
...more that you don't need at this time

The MUI_DESCRIPTION_TEXT macro needs the section index and the description.

You put the Title and Description in the Section command. You need the index variable not the title. Without a string for the index you got the error "unknown variable/constant "{OPTIONAL01SECTION}" detected" when the MUI_DESCRIPTION_TEXT macro was processed.
