.NET Forum / Visual Studio.NET / Setup / April 2005Installation hanging of VB .net 2003
I am trying to install Visual Basic .NET 2003 on a machine running XP Pro. The install hangs about 2/3 of the way thru "generating setup script...". I can see nothing else happening... the process just sits there. No antivirus software is running. Is anyone alive? > I am trying to install Visual Basic .NET 2003 on a machine running XP Pro. > The install hangs about 2/3 of the way thru "generating setup script...".

Jim Thompson > Is anyone alive? > [quoted text clipped - 5 lines] >> antivirus >> software is running. To be more specific on my problem: - I'm running VS.NET Professional 2003 with Windows XP Professional SP2. - Out of the blue, I can't debug a program from the VS.NET IDE. It simply hangs and the IDE window is totally unresponsive. The window for the program I am trying to debug never appears. I can execute the program without debugging. This is true of any program now, not just the one I was working on originally. - I reinstalled the VS.NET prerequisites which went smoothly but didn't help. - I tried reinstalling VS.NET but it hangs about 2/3 of the way thru with the "generating setup script..." dialog message mentioned by others with the problem. - I tried removing VS.NET completely but this also hangs identically. Any help would be appreciated, Jim Thompson I'm afraid that no one with answers ever reads these posts.... It's a special service of Microsoft to provide the forum to post problems so we all feel better for the moment. It's much easier than actually providing software that installs. > To be more specific on my problem: > [quoted text clipped - 14 lines] > > Jim Thompson The good news is that my problem is fixed. The bad news I'm not sure what I did. I tried just about everything such as attempting to remove all the prequisites, remove VS.Net, disable Norton and other anti spam and adware programs. Things just seemed to be getting worse. Then suddenly, one of my attempts to remove VS.net worked. Then I tried reinstalling and it also worked. I'm not sure exactly what part of my flailing did the trick. Jim Thompson Alrighty... I'll try the flail about method and see if that works for me. :) thanks > The good news is that my problem is fixed. The bad news I'm not sure what I > did. [quoted text clipped - 6 lines] > > Jim Thompson I have the exactly same problem with VS.NET Pro. 2002. But I'm able to uninstall VS.NET. To uninstall it I simply restart my laptop and insert the installation CD#1. The process of unnstalling VS.NET then starts and removes it from my laptop. BTW I'm running Windows XP Pro. Now does anyone know how to onstall VS.NET? I have the "Generating setup scripts" problem too during the installation. Hunki I'm gonna answer myself... First, I meant VS.NET Pro. 2003 in my previous post and not VS.NET PRO. 2002. Second, I'm now able to install VS.NET on my laptop. What I did was disabling my wireless network and Norton Internet Security 2005. Hunki Thanks... I did try disabling NIS... but, perhaps I just disabled NAV. I'll try it again.

I disabled Norton Internet Security and it worked fine for me as well. This was on a new machine with the same hangup generating the script. Thanks for the tip. Dart.
