I have installed Delphi 10 Seattle Trial (Architect).
I try to install FR Professional 5 Trial (from official site).
I use recompile.exe from FR, then I start the Delphi, and FR components are not shown in tool palette, frxClass is not found.
I have installed all packages from FR/LibD23, I added TfrxReport component on design GUI. After click on this component FastReport is open, but when I try to compiling project, frxClass is not found.
Uninstall all instances of FR, remove all FR's files and folders (see system and hidden files too) and then run FR 5 Trial installer with "Run as administrator" option

I have attempted to install Jedi into Delphi 11, it goes through the installation process and Getit reports it as installed but it does not appear in the component palette. I have Jedi installed in Delphi 10.4.
Both JEDIVisualComponentLibrary and JEDICodeLibrary (Both JCL-2021.09) have been copied to the CatalogRepository but looking in the Options\language\Delphi\library none of the JediVCL libraries were entered and and only the 32 bit version of the CodeLibrary.
I entered the paths in Options/Language/Delphi/Library and restarted Delphi but none of the Jedi VCL controls appeared on the Palette.
Tried running uninstall from GetIt but nothing seems to happen then it says Done. Where do I find the actual Install/Unistall programs?
How do I clear out the Jedi Libraries and what is the best way to install them.
Got into your same situation and I didn't find JVCLInstall.exe either.
I went into folder:
..\Documents\Embarcadero\Studio\22.0\CatalogRepository\JEDIVisualComponentLibraryJVCL-2021.09\install\JVCLInstall
and opened JVCLInstall.dproj in Delphi 11 IDE. I run it from there and a JVCL install wizard poped up. I went through it and, despite some warnings, I got the components installed and available after closing and opening the IDE.
The help says "You can use GetIt Package Manager to discover and install additional third-party software onto RAD Studio." but Indy is not available in GetIt
I dowloaded newest files from Github. I run the Fullc_Rio.bat file then opened Indy260.groupproj but when compiling I got:
[Fatal Error] Cannot compile package 'IndySystem260' which is currently required by Delphi 10.3.
Indy comes pre-installed in every IDE version, and has been for a very long time.
However, if you want to install a newer version than what Embarcadero ships, you have to first remove the pre-installed version. This is mentioned in Indy's installation notes:
All package names are followed by X0 (where X0 is your Delphi/C++Builder/RAD Studio product version).
...
If Indy 10 is already installed, it needs to be uninstalled first:
Remove the pre-compiled design-time BPL files - dclIndyCoreX0.bpl and dclIndyProtocolsX0.bpl - from the IDE via the "Components > Install Packages" dialog.
Delete all of the existing binaries - IndySystemX0.*, (dcl)IndyCoreX0.*, and (dcl)IndyProtocolsX0.*
Delete any Indy 10 source files, if present.
Be sure to check for files in the IDE's \bin, \lib, and \source folders, \Indy subfolders, and OS system folders.
...
You can either:
Use the command-line FULLD#.BAT script that corresponds to your Delphi version.
Open the individual DPK files in the IDE and compile them, in the following order:
IndySystemX0.dpk (in Lib\System)
IndyCoreX0.dpk (in Lib\Core)
IndyProtocolsX0.dpk (in Lib\Protocols)
dclIndyCoreX0.dpk (in Lib\Core)
dclIndyProtocolsX0.dpk (in Lib\Protocols)
...
Refer to the installation notes for full instructions.
Indy is already installed in Rio during the product installation. It's used in parts of the RTL. It's already installed in all versions of Delphi.
If you open a new VCL or FMX application, click on a form to activate the designer, and go to the component palette, and enter TId in the search box, you can find the Indy related component pages in the palette.
I tried to install Delphi 5 on Windows 10, but hangs when configuring the BDE.
I've tried in a different directory with administrator permissions.
I've tried for compatibility mode as well.
If someone knows , I am very grateful!
This image is the error
This is the procedure I use to install Delphi 5 Pro on Windows 10:
Log in as Administrator
Turn UAC off
Log in as Standard User
Install Delphi 5 Pro via installer
The installation hangs while trying to install the BDE.
Use Task Manager to kill the install process.
Delete C:\Program Files (x86)\Borland\Delphi 5\Uninst.isu
Install Delphi 5 Pro via installer
Select registry settings only.
Install d5proupgrade.exe (Bug fix Upgrade for Delphi 5 Pro)
Open a command prompt as Administrator:
> cd C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Borland Shared\Debugger
> tregsvr bordbk50.dll
> cd C:\see\below\regarding\winhlp32-windows-7-x86-x86-komeil
> Install.cmd
Edit permission on C:\Program Files (x86)\Borland\Delphi5\Bin\delphi32.dro adding Everyone with Full Control
Start Delphi 5
When prompted, don't change JIT debugger and check don't ask again.
Close Delphi 5
Turn UAC on.
I don't use the BDE and have never tested to see if it works or not after this procedure.
See http://www.komeil.com/blog/windows-help-program-winhelp-winhlp32-exe to find out how to get Delphi 5 Help working in Windows 10 and to obtain winhlp32-windows-7-x86-x64-komeil.cab. You'll have to download and extract the cab file then edit the Install.cmd, adding the last two line in the Settings so it reads:
:: ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
:: Settings
set MuiFileName=winhlp32.exe.mui
set ExeFileName=winhlp32.exe
set WindowsVersion=7
goto :BypassVersionError
I experienced the same problem but I found a workaround.
Install BDE from a separate source (for example you can download it from the EDN)
Start installing Delphi 5
When it stuck on the Configuring BDE screen open Task manager and close the installer with the End task.
Start the installer again but choose the latest option to setting Registry only.
Enjoy (?)
I am delphi developer and want to install component for Delphi 7 on Windows XP and 2007. I have .DCU files only.
When I try to install .DCU from Component > insatll packege > Add> select .DCU file then it shows error like "Invalide Package file"
Please help.
Thanks in advance.
You are using the wrong mechanism to install the component. Instead of Install Packages you need to select Install Components. This will present a dialog which allows you to specify the unit file name that contains the component(s). You get the choice of installing the component into a new package, or an existing package.
How I can install multiple versions of a library in Delphi or C++Builder? For example, I might want to be able to develop the next version of our app using the current versions of JCL and JVCL while still being able to compile the release version of our app using whatever version of JCL and JVCL were tested for that release.
Using more than one version of a library is easy with libraries like Boost, since those are just header files and library / DLL files that I can put wherever I want, and so I can simply point my project files at the appropriate library directories. However, since libraries like JCL and JVCL try to install themselves into the IDE, I'm not sure how to configure different projects to use different versions without it turning into an unmanageable hack.
(I'm still not entirely familiar with how Delphi manages components and projects - most of my experience is in C++ - so this may be part of my problem.)
We had the same problem, supporting older versions compiled with different versions of the components. Our solution was/is to use the IDE's " -r " command line option. With this switch it is possible to use different library paths and packages (at the same time). The only problem that we encountered with this approach was that some of us regularly tried to open an older project version in the wrong IDE instance.
[Old version 1.0] bds.exe -rVersion1.0
[trunk version ] bds.exe
How to setup those:
Start your IDE as you are used to it.
Install everything you need for "Version 1.0"
Close the IDE
Install all (old) packages (JCL/JVCL/...)
Start regedit.exe
Export the registry key HKCU\Software\CodeGear\BDS\5.0 to a *.reg file
Start nodepad.exe and do a search&replace in the *.reg file for "CodeGear\BDS\5.0" and replace it with "CodeGear\Version1.0\5.0"
Import the *.reg file (by double clicking it in the Windows Explorer)
Create a copy of your RAD Studio 2007 startmenu link and change the command line to include the "-rVersion1.0" key.
Now you have two IDE configurations that are equal. You can now change the IDE that doesn't use the " -r " command option to your trunk version's packages.
When you install all the packages, you must not use the default BPL and DCP directories unless the different package versions use different file names (like the JCL and JVCL do).
CodeGear\BDS\5.0 = Delphi 2007
CodeGear\BDS\6.0 = Delphi 2009
Borland\BDS\4.0 = Delphi 2006
Borland\Delphi\7.0 = Delphi 7
