installer verification failed

jiyao · 9th May 2002, 02:11

Hi,

I tried NSIS in two computers and encountered the same problem.
After I installed NSIS and I started it, which started VC++ 6.0
automaticly. While I tried to run NSIS with VC++, I got the
error: 'Installer verification failed.' I also tried to install
NSIS using /NCRC and still it didn't work. Can anybody help me?

Thanks.

You should not run NSIS in VC++ 6.0. Just use makensis.exe to compile an installer.

It sounds like you are trying to run exehead.exe from the exehead project. You need to compile the makenssi project in order to get makensis.exe. Of course you don't need to any of this if you just want to create an installer.
