Build 1999102709M11: win32/NT4
Overview: I Downloaded the build from
ftp://sweetlou/products/client/seamonkey/windows/32bit/x86/1999-10-27-09-M11/
and tried various ways of installing but the installation fails.
I tried:
1. Running nsinstall.exe but it reports "the application or DLL
c:\temp\core.ns\bin\spistub.dll is not a valid Windows NT image. Please check
against your installation diskette." OK
2. Running the installation with the files from the backup directory. I copied
all 4 files to a temp directory, ran install.exe and at the end of the
installation it reports "the application or DLL c:\32nt4\seamonk\x86rel\plc3.dll
is not a valid Windows NT image. Please check against your installation
diskette." OK
Additional Information:
- Linux 10/27 build installed ok.
- Mac 10/27 build installed ok.
Changing Component to Install Wizard. Reassigning to Grace. Thanks!
We need to warn users if there is not enough disk space.
Reassign to Sean.

Unfortunately I don't know how much disk space I had this morning when the
problems occured. I just verified that I have 255MB of disk space and now
"nsintall.exe" and "install.exe" are installing without a problem.
This does not sound like problem of running out of disk space. Sounds more like
either the .xpi files downloaded incorrectly, or they got uncompressed
incorrectly, or the local file system was corrupted.
I'll have to take a look at a machine that can reproduce this consistently.

I took a look at Grace's machine, and it appears that some key files are getting
uncompressed incorrectly. The are getting created as a 0 byte file due to
insufficient disk space.
