installation error: "1% is not a valid win32 application"

[omerori]

Hi,

I'm trying to install wubi for the first time, but the installation program stops and says "1% is not a valid win32 application".

Does anyone know why it happens and what I can do about it?

Thanks,
Omer

Hi and welcome to the forums :)

Download the wubi.exe and relevant Desktop ISO and place them in the same folder before running the executable.

Let us know if that helps.

[omerori]

it worked! thanx

I created a bug report for you: https://bugs.launchpad.net/wubi/+bug/900331

You can subscribe to it in case something interesting happens with it - or to add more info etc.

[omerori]

Thank you bcbc.

In future cases, how do I know whether to file a bug report or not? should I just let more experienced users (like you) do it for me? or just file a report and let others decide about it? I'm not sure what's considered a bug and what the conventions are...

If you think it's a bug, just go ahead and file it. It's better if you do it yourself - so the devs can contact you through your launchpad id if they need more info.

Excellent! Glad you got things sorted out and can enjoy Ubuntu.
