Bug report #2455

Updated by Jürgen Fischer almost 6 years ago

Current version of QGIS Windows installer (1.4.0 standalone) gives no warning to user if user has no write permission to selected installation folder. I.e. when installer is running as user (not admin) and destination is "Program FileZ" or other ro folder.



Correct solution would be something like this pseudocode (I have no idea how installer works): "mkdir $foo; if $? <> 0 { echo 'You have no permission. Try to run as admin!'; exit 1; }"
