Hi all, i made the .sis files for Symbian 6.1 and 9.1 respectively with my own code. The 6.1's ran successfully in 3230 but cannot open in 9.1 (N80) after installing. It did not tell any error messages during the process of making and installing.
Thx~

Hi Patrick,

Can you tell me how you've compiled the program and built the .sis file?

Are you able to install the .sis file of the helloworld sample on your device?

Hi Patrick,

The problem you've described usually happens when a resource is missing, or a resource file has a different UID. Try checking your project files for matching UID's.

I recommend using the Edge IDE, because using this tool eliminates the hassle with UID's and resources. Alternatively, you may also use CarbIDE.

I have checked the UID and all of them are matched.

I found another problem: if I choose RAM card instead of the device for installation, I cannot find the icon then.

thx~

Hi Patrick,

That seems like a resource problem. Make sure all resource files (for Symbian 9 there are 2 resource files) are copied into the correct folders. Also the paths should be set correctly inside the .rss files.

Did you try the EdgeIDE or CarbIDE for building Symbian applications and sis files?
