Trying to compile and install HelloWorld demo to P800

3 replies · 5,620 views · Started 12 February 2003

Hi there,

I just got my P800 and am experimenting with C++ programming it. I dowmloaded the UIQ7 SDK from ericsson. Don't have codewarrior (yet).

I manage to create a SIS file, but when I try to install it to the P800, I get 'application is not compatible with your phone and cannot be installed'.

This even happens with the already compiled demos in C:\Symbian\UIQ_70\examples\ToolsAndUtilities\Install.

This is what I do:

[code:1]cd C:\Symbian\UIQ_70\examples\ToolsAndUtilities\Install
makesis HelloWorld.pkg[/code:1]
and then doubleclick on the .SIS file to install it to the P800

After a few dialogs I get the above error.

I also sent the .sis file to the phone, and try to install it from there, but the phone says 'incompatible version of installation program'.

HelloWorld.pkg contains

[code:1]#{"Minimal application"},(0x10004299),1,0,0
; Only two files to install for the minimal application
"HelloWorld.app"-"!:\system\apps\HelloWorld\HelloWorld.app"
"HelloWorld.rsc"-"!:\system\apps\HelloWorld\HelloWorld.rsc"[/code:1]

What am I missing?

Thanks a lot
Joost

[quote="joostn"]Sorry for bothering you..[/quote]Not a bother at all, I was just surfing for an answer to this problem as I'd just finished building my first .sis file and was wondering where the error message came from. Thanks for the link.

I had similar problem so I tried for
(0x101F80BE), 1, 0, 0, {"SonyEricssonP80xPlatformProductID"😉
But now I get
"this component is built-in" durring instalation".
What I should do?
