OCN5 CAB file re-install problems

I posted this over at Oncoursenavigator.com, but thought I would post here at Aximsite as well.

I have an Axim X30H with OCN5 program and SE region map installed on 512mb SD Card. I have ~48 mb free memory.

I was using OCN5 on a business trip this week, and one morning the software would not load. I would start OCN5, and after a few seconds, the screen would revert to the Today screen, with just about 1/2" of the OCN splash screen displayed at the top. The software would not load.

I soft-resetted 1/2 dozen times or so to no avail. I then uninstalled OCN thinking somehow in was corrupted. When I tried to open the CAB file stored on the SD card for re-install, I received the following error -- "EasyPocketNAV OnCourse Navigator.CAB is not a valid Windows CE Setup file." I then did a hard reset of the axim, and tried again with the same error.

Just got home and re-installed from disk, and program is running again. The CAB file was re-installed as well. I thought the purpose of this was to re-install the program without having to use the set-up disks. Can anyone shed any light on this for me?

Thanks, Rob

I don't know about OcN5, but with OcN4 I had to set the read-only attribute on the CAB file before I installed it or it would not run a second time. You might give that a try.

Aaah .. thanks for the tip. I just looked an noticed that the read only box was NOT checked. I will check it off. Hopefully I won't need to do this again, but if so, hopefully it will work! :approve:
