Visual Studio C++ 2010 Not installing.

  • Wazabi-Bros     26th Mar 2012 Member 0 Permalink
    I was following the wiki on how to compile. It told me to download Visual Studio C++ 2010 so I did.
    I ran the file and it gave me a terms and conditions and an option to down load a server thing.
    I accept and went on.
    When it came to actually installing, It wouldn't install the first file and it automatically stops installing.
    It takes about 2-4mins before it gives you the message.


    :/ Any one got ideas?
    I really want to get my mod going :)

    Error occurred during setup

    The following component could not be downloaded:

    Setup canceled automatically because a component could not be downloaded. To try again, click Exit and then restart setup. For more information, see the (Link-->) Download Troubleshooting Guide.

    (Tick box) Add a Desktop shortcut to Setup to install these components latter.

    You're using Visual C++ Express right?

    Can you see if the following file
    %temp%\VSMsiLog.txt
    exists (or something similar)?
    If so paste-bin it.

    I've also heard that there's problems with the online installer (which is what I assume you're using).
