PostSharp

[sater]

When execute the MSI installer of [PostSharp-1.0.7.262.msi] , it shows the following error:
PostSharp 1.0[1.0.7.262] Setup Wizard ended prematurely
And I got the LOG file by commandline:
msiexec /log msi.log /i PostSharp-1.0.7.262.msi
Please download the log file from:

(Seems the file size is over maximum attachment limit of this forum)
BTW, can anyone describe the manual install process without MSI Installer?
(I can got the "C:\Program Files\PostSharp 1.0" directory from another PC which run the installer successfully)

From your log:

MSI (s) (744) [10:36:39:140]: Calling SRSetRestorePoint API. dwRestorePtType: 0, dwEventType: 102, llSequenceNumber: 0, szDescription: "Installed PostSharp 1.0 [1.0.7.262]".
MSI (s) (744) [10:36:39:140]: The call to SRSetRestorePoint API failed. Returned status: 0. GetLastError() returned: 127


It seems that it is impossible to create a restore point, which is unfortunately independent from PostSharp.

Although it should work without that, try running msiexec from a console with elevated privileges.

The manuall installation is simply to copy "C:\Program Files\PostSharp 1.0" and

C:\Program Files\MSBuild\v2.0\Custom.After.Microsoft.Common.targets
C:\Program Files\MSBuild\v3.5\Custom.After.Microsoft.Common.targets
C:\Program Files (x86)\MSBuild\v2.0\Custom.After.Microsoft.Common.targets
C:\Program Files (x86)\MSBuild\v3.5\Custom.After.Microsoft.Common.targets

If one of these files already exists, merge things from PostSharp with existing stuff.

And put PostSharp.Public.dll and PostSharp.Laos.dll in GAC optionally.

Hope it works,
