Re: [ice-dev] Installer fails if zip file is already in the directory
|
I have an update from a previous installer (bash) and it broke.
I think it should give the user the option to replace the directory, not assume that it shouldn't do anything.

This issue is occurring because it is trying to create the ICE directory where you already have a file name ICE (like saying `touch ICE; mkdir -p ICE` fails). I don't think that the installer should delete the file, since it's not actually replacing it with an updated version but a completely different file structure. I will be pushing an update that will make the error a bit more transparent. If you have an installation done by the installer and run it again it seems to work fine. The update option is actually entirely optional unless you are only downloading/installing a subset of ICE, HDFJava, and VisIt.
