Problem description: 
After downloading Libo-dev-3.5.0beta1_install_multi.msi yesterday in the evening I installed it in a new WIN7 64bit in parallel to 3.4.4. But looking in
C:\Program Files (x86)\LOdev 3.5\program there were neither exes nor dlls.
Even all other folders were empty. The only full folder was the help folder because I installed the German help pack too.
I installed the beta user defined with obsolete filters. 

Platform (if different from the browser):

NOT reproducible with Parallel Dev-Installation of  "LibreOffice 3.5.0 Beta1 - WIN7 Home Premium (64bit) German UI [Build-ID: 7362ca8-b5a8e65-af86909-d471f98-61464c4] Windows_Release_Configuration  11-Dec-2011 06:51". LibO works, so I guess installation might be complete.

@k-j:
The main question is: does it work? Nobody does an installation only to enjoy filled folders on HDD ;-)

I can confirm your "empty program folder" observations for an obsolete "LibO-dev 3.5" folder (mostly empty), but not for related "C:\Program Files (x86)\LOdev 3.5\program", there all required files (lots of lots) are available

Of course not. No files, no work

It is a new WIN7 64bit installation, set on a day before. I have no LibO-dev 3.5 folder.
Comment 3 Rainer Bielefeld Retired 2011-12-14 01:16:27 UTC 
Strange! Any other observations (messages, details concerning your installation (standard? all users or only for you?), activity during installation ...)?

I did the "user specific" (forgot exact name) to add some UI languages "only for me".

Please uninstall Libo-dev-3.5.0beta1_install_multi.msi, then create a log file
of the install process, and attach it to this bug.

Run msiexec /i Libo-dev-3.5.0beta1_install_multi.msi /l*v logfile.txt

Thanks!
Comment 5 k-j 2011-12-14 03:02:25 UTC 
Ok,
after installing it a second time it works fine:
all files, start icon etc are there.
Maybe a PEBKAC. Not reproduceable for now.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

@Andras:
It is:
msiexec /i LibO-Dev_3.5.0beta1_Win_x86_install_multi.msi /l*v logfile.txt
But never mind.
Comment 6 k-j 2011-12-14 03:21:45 UTC 
It is really strange:
After installing LibO 3.5.0beta1 a second time I have had to install the Help pack twice to get it work.
Other programs which I installed in the last hours won't show this behaviour.
Comment 7 Andras Timar 2011-12-14 05:52:53 UTC 
OK, so it's a WORKSFORME.
