Comment 3 m_a_riosv 2012-10-04 21:10:02 UTC
Win7x64 Ultimate

The same error remain with:
master~2012-10-03_23.18.04_LibO-Dev_3.7.0.0.alpha0_Win_x86_install-arc_en-US
Comment 4 m_a_riosv 2012-10-05 20:34:11 UTC
I think the path length is the source of the issue:

Installing in this path, does not work (length 106):
C:\Users\four\Downloads\masterWinMinGw\LibO-Dev_3.7.0.0.alpha0_Win_x86_install-arc_en-US\LOdev 3.7\program

Installing in this path, works (length 70):
C:\LibO-Dev_3.7.0.0.alpha0_Win_x86_install-arc_en-US\LOdev 3.7\program

So I guess there is a limit on the path length to install LibreOffice. 

Maybe a verification of the path length during the installation to do not let progress with it, or a message to inform about, could avoid spent time for nothing.
Comment 5 m_a_riosv 2012-10-05 22:41:10 UTC
No luck, I have deleted all directories with install and try to install again, and the error is there again.

If I can get new run, I'll try to see what difference is between two installations, one working the other not.
