install.sh failed about docker-vb6 HOT 8 OPEN

Hiya. Is there more output in the ... section? I think that's where the interesting thing is.

From the look of the last line it seems that Visual Basic simply hasn't been installed - but the cabextract looks like it's working.

install.sh really ought to have set -ex at the top instead of set -x.. I'll change that.

from docker-vb6.

Here's the ... part, hope this helps

ah, that's surprisingly quiet. I'm afraid that's not really enough to go on other than to just say for some reason VB isn't getting installed :\

Are you using Visual Studio Enterprise 6.0 install media? If not, the VB6.STF file is probably not selecting anything to install for you. Try the stuff at the end of the readme about making your own maybe?

Oh, i'm using Pro though, will this work?

from docker-vb6.

Just spotted another point - does vs\KEY.DAT file is required?
It is not in the repo though.

Update: sorry my mistake on the KEY.DAT. But found that my VB installation is ACMBOOT.EXE instead of ACMSETUP.EXE

from docker-vb6.

Oh, sorry I never responded again!

The KEY.DAT is totally necessary, yeah. to get it working with ACMBOOT.EXE instead of ACMSETUP.EXE I think you just need to modify the Dockerfile

Also, I think you'll need to generate your own VB6.STF file. I think for the Pro version you need to go find your own copy of ACOST.EXE though. I think it used to be downloadable from microsoft?
