So obvious but how do I do this???

[NewsArchive]

I am having a compilation fail. The highlighted lines show a File Not Found.
But how can i found out exactly what line these relate to?

I had hoped a double click would have taken me to the line in the script
that was failing.

Thanks

OK I found the line in question. It is that code signing failing with error
code -1.

I am using a pfx file which does exist. But this is the first time I have
compiled in this VM. Do I need to do anything special to get it to recognize
the pfx file - like registering it or anything?

Thanks

Meaning "compiled" the program or compiled the SetupBuilder project in this
VM?

If the latter, you have specified where signtool.exe is?

Is there a copy of capicom.dll in your windows\syswow64 or windows\system32
folder?

Is the item actually getting signed but just not timestamped?

Thanks Jane. Yes I traced it down to not having signtool.exe in the VM.

Rather than download 4gb of the SDK there was a link somewhere previously
where to get the signtool exe itself. I recall the capicom file at the time.

Would you happen to know where that download is? Cannot find it on MSDN.

Thanks

Unfortunately, it's not available as a separate download.

If you have it on another machine, you can just copy signtool.exe and the
capicom.dll files.

David Troxell often posts links to his instructions for avoiding the entire
4 GB download. Search on his last name in Third Party.

Download and install the latest Dev Tips - I changed the Web Update method
recently, and you need to download the latest (just install over previous
if installed) - NEXT update you can go back to webupdate method for latest.

GET the latest signtool.exe - the one that doesn't need capicom.dll - then
all you have to do is put in a folder and make sure - SB Tools - Options -
File Locations - can find it.

I put mine here - but pay attention to C:\Program Files in case you're
installing to a VM 32 bit -

32 bit C:\Program Files\ vs 64 bit C:\Program Files (x86)\

C:\Program Files (x86)\Lindersoft\SetupBuilder 7 Developer\Lib\signtool.exe

Dev Tips help topic for downloading latest signtool.exe is - Windows 7
signtool.exe - so this signtool.exe should be good to go on W7 and W8.
