Hi Edward,

I tried downloading and installing the newly packaged Windows version of
Relax and this time it successfully unpacked and I was able to open the
program.  It's amazing what a single missing byte can do!

Thanks for fixing it for us!

Karin

Hi,

I've now repackaged the relax-1.3.13 Zip archive for MS Windows and uploaded
it to http://download.gna.org/relax/.  Jimmy and Karin, could you please
test and see if the new file correctly extracts.  Either downloading from
http://www.nmr-relax.com/download.html#MS_Windows or
http://download.gna.org/relax/ is ok.  It looks like the previous file was
truncated by one byte either when I transferred it from my Windows VM image
or when uploading it.  The new one should hopefully fix this.

Regards,

Edward

Sorry, for the module compilation, this also requires MS Visual C++ 
(http://www.nmr-relax.com/windows_devel.html#MSVS).  Though this that 
is a massive installation.

Hi,

This problem was also encountered by Karin (see the thread starting 
at https://mail.gna.org/public/relax-users/2012-02/msg00003.html), 
but I'm not sure if we found a solution in the end.  I've just 
downloaded the file from 
http://www.nmr-relax.com/download.html#MS_Windows and I also see 
problems when decompressing!  I'll have to remake the zip file again 
tonight from the sources, but until then maybe try the zipped sources
(http://www.nmr-relax.com/download.html#Source_code_release).
 From the zipped sources you will not have access to the relaxation 
curve-fitting for R1 and R2, unless you install sconstruct, 
Python-devel, and numpy-devel, and then these modules can be compiled 
by typing 'scons' in the base directory.  I unfortunately cannot fix 
the corrupted file for another 6 hours as I don't have physical 
access to the Windows VM image.

Regards,

Edward

Dear all, has any one a clue as to how i can install relax on either 
windows xp or windows 7 OS? in xp, the whole relax-1.3.13.win32.zip 
file is recognized as corrupt and cannot be extracted while in 
windows 7 some files are successfully extracted but other vitals 
ones are not as either 7zip recognizes them as unsupported formats 
or brings up error  0x80004005 which seems to be a problem of 
windows as i have checked for solutions to such an error but all in
vain. Help out please.
Jimmy
