Forgot to mention that the problem is only with the MSI installer. Installing using the EXE installer works fine.

Hi,

 

I tried to install MIT Kerberos for Windows 3.0 on Windows Vista build 5342. Regardless of which install option I choose (Complete, Custom and so on) I get the error message as seen in the attached screen shot. Is there any log file created that you can use to troubleshoot this? Let me know and I’ll send it to you.

 

Regards

There are two problems:

(1) the installer is attempting to install a Network Provider interface
that is no longer supported on Vista

(2) the Wix framework used to produce the MSI is not compatible with
Vista

Solving (1) requires redesigning the methods we use to obtain tickets
as part of the Windows Logon process. Solving (2) requires fixing the
open source Wix framework. Given our current resource availability I
believe we will allow someone else to tackle this problem.

Hi,

Installed Kerberos for Windows (default settings) on my Vista build 5342
machine to test compatibility. Using the EXE installer it installs fine, but
when trying to start Network Identity Manager, I get three error messages
saying it could not load certain DLL:s (see attached screenshots for exact
error messages).

The errors I get remind me a lot of when you install Kerberos for Windows on
XP machines in a language other than English.

Regards

Andreas Stenhall

KFW 3.0 is not compatible with Vista. This will be fixed in a future
release.
Thank you for your patience.

Your bug should be resolved in KFW 3.1 Beta 1.

http://web.mit.edu/kerberos/dist/testing.html#kfw-3.1

Please test.
