I am having issues with installing PDN also. When I click on the .exe file that I downloaded (v3.36) and unzipped, it pops up a dialog box for about .2 second and disappears with no error message and no install. I have read the Re: PROBLEMS WITH INSTALL UPDATE OR UNINSTALL? READ THIS. and tried all of those things. I've run the repair tool for .NET framework 3.5 which has been installed. I've never installed PDN before so there's nothing to uninstall or cleanup. I'm running WinXP SP3 and I've tried shutting down McAfee antivirus and antispyware. I am logged on as Adminstrator. The PDN "install" didn't leave any log or folder on my desktop and the %TEMP% folder is empty.
I have read through this forum looking for an answer and tried quite a few of the suggested fixes. After about 6 hours put in on that I'm out of ideas. I tried installing from a command window and tried creating the MSI file. When I click on the MSI it complains that "To install this product, use the setup wizard." I tried to run PDN from a CD by burning an image from the ISO but the file for the ISO is no longer on the webpage. I even tried installing from safemode but it threw an error because of installing in safemode.
I've tried re-downloading the file from another server. The latest version of Microsoft Installer has been installed. Any help would be appreciated, thanks.
