hi ive done a search and ive seen this problem for some others for the 7.0.4 update although there was no post that explained the problem/fix.
i have cubase 7.04 x64…use it every day…dongle is all good…everything is fine, then when i try to update to 7.0.5 the installer tells me that cubase cannot be found?
“Cubase 7.0.5 64bit Update…
An installation package for the product Steinberg Cubase 7 64bit cannot be found. Try the installation again using a valid copy of the installtion package Cubase7_64bit.msi”.
then i get a second popup box with “Fatal error during installation…Error Code:1603”
ive tried right-clicking and “running as administrator”…no diff. tried rebooting, redownloading the installer, etc etc anyone else know the answer to the prob? many thanks!
hi thanks for the responses, yes G-string the installer re-installs the latest version of elicenser fine…its after that where it then attempts to install the actual 7.05 update that it stops and i get the msg.
you cant re-install 7.04, it gets to the menu and it says “already installed” and you only can select “no changes”…you cant even select the option of re-install or repair.
anyways theres no Cubase7_64bit.msi file that the installer says is missing and that it is looking for…however there IS a Cubase_7.0.5_64bit_Update.msp file.
what the hell is going on here surely this would be a problem for EVERYONE trying to install 7.05? the filenames are wrong in the installer? why am i getting this grief and not others?
anyways trying to run the Cubase_7.0.5_64bit_Update.msp file works until the first few screens and then it cant find a “Cubase7_64bit.msi” file! and if i rename the installer file to be called this, then it says “not a valid installer file” !!! ARARGGHH!!!
