Problem installing Google App Engine from MSI - google-app-engine

I downloaded Python and installed it, and when I go download GoogleAppEngine_1.2.0.msi and try to install it and I get this error:
This installation package could not be
opened. Contact the application
vendor to verify that this is a valid
Windows Installer package.
Am I forgetting something? I am assuming this is pretty simple.

I had the same error. The file downloaded by IE was about 190k and would not run. The file ought to be 2.7M. Firefox downloads correctly. Also IE will download correctly if you select RUN instead of SAVE. That is my experience and I now have the SDK installed. I hope this helps you.

Download it again and try to install the newly downloaded file. Maybe the file was damaged during download or not completely downloaded which can both happen sometimes.
If this does not help and the same error message appears you could control the checksum which should be
5ea87b8ed3011a5f55a9135c96abe96b6a6fd48b
for this file.
When you are sure that the downloaded file is ok, check if the version of your operating system is supported.
Maybe installing the Windows installer could help?

If not, try out on another machine or inside a virtual machine.

“choregraphe-suite-2.8.6.23-mac64-setup” cannot be opened because the developer cannot be verified

I am trying to install Choregraphe Suite on my macOS Catalina (v10.15.7) from the softbankrobotics website but I get this message:
Website link: https://developer.softbankrobotics.com/nao6/naoqi-developer-guide/choregraphe-suite/choregraphe-suite-installation-guide#desktop-installation
I don't know what I'm missing in order to run the installation on my laptop. I would appreciate it if anyone can help me on this.
Update: I left clicked it and it opened in command line. I went into the choregraphe-folder/bin/naoqi-bin and when I executed the file I got this:

Thanks :)
You can go to the system settings > security & privacy and explicitly allow the opening of the installer (screenshot attached).
allow opening of installer
It will then bring up a second dialog:
"macOS cannot verify the developer of “choregraphe-suite-2.8.6.23-mac64-setup”. Are you sure you want to open it?
By opening this app, you will be overriding system security which can expose your computer and personal information to malware that may harm your Mac or compromise your privacy."
You can then click on "Open", but for my Mac (10.15.7) the installer crashes directly afterwards and I cannot install anything.
allow installation
It seems impossible to install Choregraphe on a recent Mac OS X. Help would be much appreciated.
'Allow install from internet' is the step you have to go over for all 3rd party apps(always happening) for macs. But still 'choregraphe' setup file didn't worked.
I hope my solution helps, i searched a lot too :)
install not setup file, try binaries oneenter image description here, and unzip. Open file you will see 'choregraphe' unix executable file, i clicked that file and app worked, best
P.s. i am not expert or anything that is only way i was able to make it work for my MacOs 10.15.7 (Catalina)

Installing Oracle DataModeler assistance

I would like to download and install the Oracle DataModeler
But im stuck at the window that says:
"please specify the path to the java jdk home:_________"
What do i do?
Help would be greatly appreciated
You tell it where Java is installed. SQL Developer Data Modeler is a java application and can't run without Java.
If you're on Windows, you can download the package that includes the JDK. If you're not on Windows, install Java 8 (JDK), and then run SQL Developer. If it doesn't see Java, it will ask for the path. Give it the path from your install.
When I installed Datamodeler, the first time I launched the software it asked me for a java path. On my machine this was /usr/lib/jvm/java-1.8.0-openjdk-amd64. If you are running on a linux distro, there should be an opt subdirectory with a configuration file that you can edit manually:
/opt/datamodeler/datamodeler/bin/datamodeler.conf
try changing the last line of the file from
SetJavaHome ../../jdk
to
SetJavaHome /path/to/your/java (whatever your java path is)
I'm still having issues -- but this might work for you.

Golang GAE SDK on XP: Do I have to install it? Are there other ways to use the SDK on XP?

The introduction says:
Follow the instructions on the download page to install the SDK on
your computer.
But the download page has no any instructions about how to install and what to do next. Only links.
All I found is this link to WindowsInstallation:
Download and run the latest Windows installer from our downloads page
Must Windows XP users use the installer? Can they just download the Linux version and unzip it? I'd like to have a portable version rather than one that installs EXEs and registry settings, etc.
Also I do not understand what exactly do I have to choose. There are:
Google App Engine SDK 1.7.7 (.msi file)
Google App Engine SDK for Go 1.7.7 (.zip file)
I've downloaded the second. Do I need to download and install the first too? Just adding the second to the PATH and develop is exactly what I want. Is this enough?
The Linux version will have executables compiled for Linux, so you can't run those on Windows (unless you run linux under a virtual machine with VirtualBox, VMWare or similar).
No, you do not need to install something to run Go GAE on XP.
I just downloaded go_appengine_sdk_windows_386-1.7.7.zip from
here.
Unzipped it in C:\go_appengine-1.7.7
Added the folder in my PATH. The main goal is to have these files
dev_appserver.py and appcfg.py in the PATH. It is written
here. Not a must, though, only for convenience.
Installed Python 2.7.4. Only works with 2.7.4. At first I installed
the latest 3.3.1 but had to change it to 2.7.4 because Go GAE cannot
run, throws an error.
And that's all. Just created a sample script, ran C:\>dev_appserver.py myapp and opened my sample app in localhost:8080.
PROFIT.
But:
Do not know, though, what benefits the installer offer. I didn't test it.
That was just a sample script. Maybe some serious development requires installation.

can't find where BlackBerry 10 simulator was installed on MacOS, and re-install got "multiple launches of installer not allowed" error

Mac OS X Lion 10.7.5(11G63)
installer-bbndk-bb10_1_x-macosx-338-201302012246-201302032157.dmg
BlackBerry10Simulator-Installer-BB10_1_X-338-Mac-201302031817.dmg
After install the upper two dmg files, I can find qde in the launchpad, but I can not find the "BlackBerry10Simulator-BB10_n_nn.vmwarevm" file".
I want to re-install ,so I run the app "BlackBerry10Simulator-Installer.app" in Finder->devices->BlackBerry10Simulator-BB10-1-x, just get the pop-up-box saying
The Installer cannot be run.
Multiple launches of this installer is not allowed. It will now quit
, and then the installer quit.
How can I find the simulator install path, or
How can I re-Install it successfully.
P.S.
At the first time installing, I did not change anything while installing, just clicked those "next","accept..." buttons.
I think the simulator should be installed in default file path, but I don't know where is it, and can't find it even searching "BlackBerry10Simulator" in Finder.
Maybe there is something wrong while first time installing simulator?
The BB10 simulators are VMware virtual machines. On a Mac, you need to have VMWare Fusion installed in order to run the simulator VM. This is mentioned in the system requirements. All the dmg installer does is uncompress the VMware image and place it on your hard drive. I just installed this myself, and the default location seems to be:
/Users/<your username>/Documents/Virtual Machines
Inside there should be a folder Blackberry10Simulator-BB10_1_X-338 and inside that there should be BlackBerry10Simulator-BB10_1_X.vmwarevm which contains the actual virtual machine .vmx and .vmdk files.
There should also be an alias (shortcut) created on your desktop to point to this location, called Blackberry 10 Simulator.
To uninstall, there is a script in Blackberry10Simulator-BB10_1_X-338/install called uninstaller which should remove everything and allow you to install again.
Unfortunately, VMWare Fusion is not free but you can sign up for a 30-day trial in order to be able to run the simulator and test out your app.
I recently encountered this error with a different installer (but also installanywhere based). There seems to be a problem with the mirroring feature in VM Ware Fusion and the multiple install detection in Install anywhere. If you disable mirroring, I suspect the "Multiple launches of this installer is not allowed." error will no longer occur.

unable to deploy after upgrading to 1.7.4

I upgraded today to GAE 1.7.4 and on trying to deploy I see following error:
Preparing to deploy:
Created staging directory at: 'C:\Users\VSKUMA~1.ST-\AppData\Local\Temp\appcfg4811921061542689032.tmp'
Scanning for jsp files.
Compiling jsp files.
java.lang.RuntimeException: Cannot get the System Java Compiler. Please use a JDK, not a JRE.
I already have JDK pointing in the build path and this all was working fine till GAE 1.7.3
I cannot uninstall the existing GREs for some reasons.
For me at least, forcing Eclipse to use a different vm itself worked. Add, for example:
-vm
C:\Program Files\Java\<jdk1.6.0_38>\bin\javaw.exe
to the first two lines* of the eclipse.ini file and restart Eclipse.
*Thanks to Andre
finally i uninstalled jre manually and this only helped me to get through this
Yes #Vik, i had this problem when updating to GAE 1.7.3 and the solution to the problem is to reinstall the JRE... but! if you are working with Eclipse, and this doesn´t work either, try reintalling the whole IDE. (i had to do so, and it worked for me ¬¬ )
