- 2 months, 3 weeks ago by Luc Saffre about #6930 (Build a new version of eidreader.exe for Windows) (1 reply) : Another funny issue: I have to unplug the VM in order to restart it. I cannot find any UI element to ask politely for a shutdown or restart.
- 2 months, 3 weeks ago by Luc Saffre in reply to Luc Saffre about #6930 (Build a new version of eidreader.exe for Windows) : But I cannot find any place except this one, which seems correctly configured:
- 2 months, 3 weeks ago by Luc Saffre about #6930 (Build a new version of eidreader.exe for Windows) (1 reply) : Next issue: eidreader works, but it doesn't see any card reader. I guess that I must tell VirtualBox to give access to it.

- 2 months, 3 weeks ago by Luc Saffre about #6930 (Build a new version of eidreader.exe for Windows) (1 reply) : I managed to install VC++ and then eidreader, but I'm still handicaped because my virtual screen is smaller than Windows can imagine, as it seems.
- 2 months, 3 weeks ago by Luc Saffre in reply to Luc Saffre about #6930 (Build a new version of eidreader.exe for Windows) : I killed the proces, then tried to increase the size of the virtual screen, without success, then restarted the installer and then hit ENTER at this point, and it started to download. Seems that there is an OK button hidden somewhere because the screen is too small.
- 2 months, 3 weeks ago by Luc Saffre about #6930 (Build a new version of eidreader.exe for Windows) (1 reply) : I am stuck while trying to install Visual C++ (required by pypks11). The installer shows a list of options, but no button to continue:

- 2 months, 3 weeks ago by Luc Saffre about #6930 (Build a new version of eidreader.exe for Windows) : The ISO file size is 8GB.
- 2 months, 3 weeks ago by Luc Saffre in reply to Sharif Mehedi about #6930 (Build a new version of eidreader.exe for Windows) : Thanks. I sent instructions to Fabien. My Windows ISO file is downloading.
- 2 months, 3 weeks ago by Sharif Mehedi about #6930 (Build a new version of eidreader.exe for Windows) (1 reply) : I pushed the eidreader now without '--noconsole'
- 2 months, 3 weeks ago by Luc Saffre about #6930 (Build a new version of eidreader.exe for Windows) : Quentin is in holidays but Fabian is there. And he trid it and it failed. When called from a terminal, it does not write any output at all. Sharif builds a new zip file where pyinstalled has been called without the --noconsole option.
- 2 months, 3 weeks ago by Luc Saffre about #6930 (Build a new version of eidreader.exe for Windows) : Thanks a lot for the quick reaction! I sent them the new version. Haha, he then answered that he's in holidays until august 10th.

- 2 months, 3 weeks ago by Luc Saffre about #6930 (Build a new version of eidreader.exe for Windows) : I saw that there were still issues and comments on the GitHUB project page because I had forgotten to archive it after moving from GH to GL. I now added links to the GL project page and archived the GH project.
- 2 months, 3 weeks ago by Luc Saffre about #6930 (Build a new version of eidreader.exe for Windows) : I went to visit a friend and with his id card was able to reproduce and then fix the problem on my computer. I pushed my changes and released version 1.0.10 to PyPI. @8lurry could you please pull the new version and create a zip file for Windows?
- 3 months ago by Luc Saffre about #6930 (Build a new version of eidreader.exe for Windows) : I sent the new version to Fabian and asked him to test it. Looking forward to his report.
- 3 months ago by Sharif Mehedi about #6930 (Build a new version of eidreader.exe for Windows) : I pushed to synodalsoft/eid.
- 3 months ago by Luc Saffre in reply to Luc Saffre about #6930 (Build a new version of eidreader.exe for Windows) : I made another push for the new version (1.0.9).
- 3 months ago by Luc Saffre in reply to Luc Saffre about #6930 (Build a new version of eidreader.exe for Windows) : Fixed. So if you pull eid now, you should see the directory with two older zip files.
- 3 months ago by Luc Saffre in reply to Luc Saffre about #6930 (Build a new version of eidreader.exe for Windows) : Oops, I see that the dl direcory of under docs is not in the public repository, it is in .gitignore. Let me fix this first.
- 3 months ago by Luc Saffre in reply to Luc Saffre about #6930 (Build a new version of eidreader.exe for Windows) : You already have write access. Try adding the file (named as eidreader-1.0.9.zip) to the docs/dl repository, which should already contain two other similar zip files.
- 3 months ago by Luc Saffre about #6930 (Build a new version of eidreader.exe for Windows) (4 replies) : Didn't get it. Maybe the file is too big? I'll give you write access to the repository.
- 3 months ago by Sharif Mehedi about #6930 (Build a new version of eidreader.exe for Windows) : I send the eidreader.zip through email at luc@saffre-rumma.net.
- 3 months ago by Luc Saffre about #6930 (Build a new version of eidreader.exe for Windows) : Don't forget this one, @8lurry. It's the most urgent...
- 3 months ago by Luc Saffre about #6930 (Build a new version of eidreader.exe for Windows) : Oops I didn't have this on my focus... now the customer asked to hurry. @JMK is not available, so question to @8lurry : didn't you have a MS Windows running somewhere? And can you try to build eidreader on it?
- 3 months, 1 week ago by Luc Saffre about #6930 (Build a new version of eidreader.exe for Windows) : @JMK here is something that you can maybe do easily on your Windows PC: eidreader.lino-framework.org/build.html
