    Good afternoon,

    during the installation of Articles I get a large list of red errors.

    I've saved the errors in a text-file:

    Any ideas what the reason is of these errors?

    Kind regards,

      I think they are from Quip already being installed. I'm pretty sure you can ignore them.

        Thanks Bob. (just reading your book by the way smiley )

        When I install Articles, it also installs archivist, getpage, getresources, Quip and taglister automatically.

        So I presume other users will see the same applications being installed.

          They should, and if they are already installed, they'll probably see the same error messages.

            I get this any time I install Articles, even on a "virgin" Revo installation. I've just ignored it.

              Maybe it's installing Quip twice or Quip shares some fields with other components?

                Well, one of these days when I get around to it I'll see what happens if I just install Quip on a new installation. I may be unjustly maligning Articles.
