[tex-live] TL-2009 + Win/XP + Rsync + CACLS : Success :-)

[Philip TAYLOR]

More on the GUI problem, and then a complete failure :

The GUI problem seems to have provoked this in the CMD window :

> Loading H:/TeX/Live/2009/Mirror/tlpkg/texlive.tlpdb
> Tk::Error: Can't locate object method "cancel" via package "Tk::After::Cancelled
> " at H:\TeX\Live\2009\Mirror\tlpkg\tlperl\lib/Tk/Widget.pm line 492.
>  <ButtonRelease-1>
>  (command bound to event)

Then at "Bayer", the following occurred :

> Installing [0125/1954, time/total: 30:56/34:36]: bayer [41k]
> tar: Unexpected EOF on archive file
> untar: untarring H:\TeX\Live\2009\temp\bayer.source.tar failed (in H:\TeX\Live\2
> 009\texmf-dist)
> untarring H:\TeX\Live\2009\temp\bayer.source.tar failed, stopping install.
> Installation failed.
> Rerunning the installer will try to restart the installation.
> Or you can restart by running the installer with:
>   install-tl.bat --profile installation.profile [EXTRA-ARGS]
> Writing log file to current working directory.
> Press any key to continue . . .

This was accompanied by a Windows "XV has crashed" message, for
which the event viewer shews the following :

> Faulting application xzdec.exe, version 4.999.9.0, 
> faulting module xzdec.exe, version 4.999.9.0, 
> fault address 0x00009061.
