Cannot Install Patch 1.09. InstallShield error 5009

[onedreamer]

I get the error -5009 during the initialization of InstallShield.
On my notebook instead everything went smooth.

Searching Macrovision's KB, I got this about the error 5009:

BUG: The Compiled Script File Cannot Exceed Certain Size
Document ID: Q111648
Last Revised On: Wednesday, November 09, 2005

This article applies to the following:
Product(s):
InstallShield Premier 10.x, 10.5x, 11.x
InstallShield Professional 10.x, 10.5x, 11.x

Project Type: InstallScript


Symptoms
In an InstallScript project, if the compiled script file exceeds a certain size then a -5009 error occurs during setup initialization. For InstallShield X, 10.5 and 11 users this size is about 820 KB.

NOTE: The main un-compiled script file is called setup.rul. The compiled script file is called setup.inx.


If the script file is the problem, I don't understand why the update won't work on my desktop PC but it did on the notebook.
Did anyone else get this error ?

You may try doing this, delete installshield folders and let the patcher readd them:

C:\Program Files\Common Files\InstallShield
C:\Program Files\Common Files\InstallShield Shared
