[mfmagpar]

I copied a set of VB packaged installation files onto another folder. When i executed the SETUP.EXE, i received an error message saying 'Could not open the file named:SETUP.LST' followed by another error 'The SETUP.LST file could not be copied - Setup cannot continue.

thanks,

Welcome lto Forums!

You would normally have at least 3 files:

- setup.exe
- yourapp.cab (this may vary: if you selected multiple cabs)
- setup.lst

So, did you copy all files ?

btw, there is Application Deployment forum in case you didn't see it.

Yes i had the cab file and the .LST files copied as they were on the original folder. And I am looking at a single cab.

double checked if i had copied all the files -size. yes i had it all copied. the error still occuring

"Could not be copied" normally means the file is locked by another application, you don't have access to the source or destination, the destination has a copy that can't be deleted, the file's damaged or something along those lines.

Is there a way i can unlock the file? tnx

terminate the app that is using the file.
