Why won't "vcredist_x86_2010_sp1.exe,Asia" let me installer SQLite?


Has anyone heard of this strange package named: vcredist_x86_2010_sp1.exe,Asia ?

I've grabbed the SQLite for DotNet installer from sqlite.org, but every time I run it, I get this weird dialog box that stops it from progressing any further.

It looks like this:

I mean I know what the vcredists are.. but what the heck is this specific package and why is it getting in my way? Googling it doesn't fetch any results either!

I'm on Windows 7 32bit with .NET 4 Full and Visual Studio 2010 Premium.

Any ideas?

Thanks,

Solution

  • That is the Visual Studio 2010 SP1 installer. I would assume that the latest SQLite.Net library requires that you have Visual Studio 2010 updated with SP1.

    Also, perhaps related, maybe not, but others have had problems installing parts of the SQLite components, such as the designer. Take a look at this blog post if that pops up.
