Внутренняя ошибка userdocs

We use folder redirection here and have had issues similar to this with other apps (GnuCash, UFile). The problem in our case was a result of a feature called Redirected Folder Migration*, which in some cases did not update the user’s registry settings to point to the new location after the migration was completed (note this migration might occur weeks after the GPO was set).

Anyway, it’s not that the entry was blank, but that it pointed to a SERVERSHARE that had been brought offline weeks earlier.

Running a gpupdate /force for every active user on every machine fixed our problem, as it updated the registry and then told the user he had to logoff / logon.

*Redirected Folder Migration allows an admin to specify that each user’s (e.g.) My Documents folder should be moved from one network location to another. It does this in a slow, measured fashion, the next time the user logs on to (any workstation on) the domain (so if your last user only logs on a month from now, the process takes a month to complete). It’s a lovely idea in theory, but in practice is a big PITA.

Incidentally, the ‘share doesn’t exist because it’s impersonating another user’ thing shouldn’t be an issue with properly redirected folders because the redirect should use a URL, not a mapped drive letter (e.g. \serverRedirectedUserFoldersSOME-USERMy Documents, although permissions might be an issue if you remove some default rights).

According to the logs, it looks like you are installing WinMerge silently using software like System Center Configuration Manager instead of the usual way.
Is this my guess correct?

When I do a silent installation with administrative privileges, I get the following log output.

One interesting difference from your log is that the Created temporary directory line in your log does not include the user’s name.
Perhaps the account that installs WinMerge is not the same account that performs the usual GUI operations.
So I assume it is a failed attempt to get the desktop folder path.

Install as a normal user or pull requests are welcome.

Internal error failed to expand shell folder constant userdocs

I’m trying to run the Windows installer for Xojo ADK but I’m getting an error as described in the subject. I’m using the defaults for all options in the installer. This is on Windows 10. I’ve attached a screen shot of the installer error.

What am I overlooking? Do I need to uninstall previous versions of Valentina?

I don’t run Xojo in Windows. The only reason I need to install is so I can grab the Vcomponents files for my app installation.

Is the Documents folder mapped to a non-standard location (not the C:UsersusernameDocuments, for example)?

The path appears to be C:UsersAdministratorDocuments

Administrator is the account I sign on with.

That’s strange, yes, I think it makes a difference, we’ll check it.

Problem solved. It was a mapping problem. It appears there was some kind of alias for the Documents folder pointing to a shared drive that no longer existed. I think this was a carryover from a previous installation of Windows 8 with VMWare.

It would show in the Windows Explorer sidebar but would give an error when I clicked on it saying it was not connected. I removed that and now the installer is working as expected.

Как избежать ошибок «Не удалось раскрыть папку оболочки с константой userdocs» в Inno Setup

Я устанавливаю несколько образцов документов в подпапку «PerfectTablePlan» стандартной папки «Мои документы» в Windows. Это отлично работает для 99% + пользователей. Но если у пользователя нет папки «Мои документы», я получаю несколько уродливых сообщений об ошибках вида:

Internal error:Failed to expand shell folder constant “userdocs”

Это не очень вселяет уверенность у пользователя!

Допускается не устанавливать образцы для этих пользователей (или устанавливать их где-нибудь еще). Но не для того, чтобы показывать уродливые сообщения об ошибках.

Проблема, похоже, связана с расширением макроса ExpandConstant для .

Есть ли способ получить путь к «Моим документам» без использования макроса?

Или каким-то образом подавить сообщение об ошибке? ExpandConstant выдает исключение: http://www.jrsoftware.org/ishelp/index.php?topic=isxfunc_expandconstant

Соответствующие части моего файла .iss выглядят так:

Failed to expand shell folder constant ‘constant name’

возникает, когда вызываемая изнутри SHGetFolderPath функция (вызываемая изнутри ExpandConstant при раскрытии константы папки оболочки) возвращает пустую строку пути для данной папки CSIDL, в данном случае для CSIDL_PERSONAL идентификатора.

Это означает, что у пользователя нет CSIDL_PERSONAL папки. Это заставляет меня задаться вопросом, как можно настроить учетную запись пользователя Windows, чтобы не было этой папки. Что ж, вы можете обойти эту проблему (или неправильную конфигурацию Windows?), Перехватив возникшее внутреннее исключение в try..except блоке:

Но я никогда не слышал о возможности отсутствия CSIDL_PERSONAL папки. Обратите внимание, что приведенный выше код защищает только константу.

Здесь мы используем перенаправление папок, и у нас были проблемы, похожие на это, с другими приложениями (GnuCash, UFile). В нашем случае проблема возникла из-за функции под названием «Миграция перенаправленной папки *», которая в некоторых случаях не обновляла параметры реестра пользователя, чтобы они указывали на новое местоположение после завершения миграции (обратите внимание, что эта миграция может произойти через несколько недель после того, как объект групповой политики был набор).

В любом случае, дело не в том, что запись была пустой, а в том, что она указывала на SERVER SHARE, который был отключен неделями ранее.

Запуск a gpupdate /force для каждого активного пользователя на каждой машине устранил нашу проблему, поскольку он обновил реестр, а затем сказал пользователю, что он должен выйти / войти в систему.

* Перенаправленная миграция папок позволяет администратору указать, что папка «Мои документы» каждого пользователя (например,) должна быть перемещена из одного сетевого местоположения в другое. Он делает это медленно и размеренно, когда в следующий раз пользователь войдет в домен (на любую рабочую станцию) в домен (так что, если ваш последний пользователь входит в систему только через месяц, процесс займет месяц). В теории это прекрасная идея, но на практике это большая PITA.

Между прочим, «общий ресурс не существует, потому что он олицетворяет другого пользователя» не должен быть проблемой с правильно перенаправленными папками, потому что перенаправление должно использовать URL-адрес, а не букву подключенного диска (например, server RedirectedUserFolders SOME-USER Мои документы, хотя при удалении некоторых прав по умолчанию могут возникнуть проблемы с разрешениями).
