Air 1.51 installation failure. The application could not be installed because the AIR file is damaged

The error:
The application could not be installed because the AIR file is damaged. Try obtaining a new AIR file from the application author.
is generated when an AIR installation file is lauched from a Samba Network Drive in Vista Utlimate 64. If the install files are copied to a local drive, it installs without incident.

Working with networks drives are never reliable.  Corruption, path problems, networks connections, and privlatges can come in the way of a properly mapped drive.  I think your solution is fairly straight forward.  You need to install your application from a local filesystem, not a mapped network drive.  In the meantime, log a bug report HERE.

    Hi Kashmore,
    Seems like the downloaded file was corrupt that could be because of either network restriction or the anti virus might have blocked it. My suggestion would be to try and download the product either by turning off the Antivirus or try a different network.

  • "Sorry, an error has occured. The application could not be installed because the AIR file is damaged

    Hello-
    I have an air application that is distributed via CDROM, the app is signed by a code signing certificate and timestamped. In mid-August when my certicate expired my users started calling stating that they couldn't install our product due to the following error: "Sorry, an error has occured. The application could not be installed because the AIR file is damaged. Try obtaining a new AIR file from the application author." From my understanding a timestamped application is taken at a point in time when it's generated so why would it matter if the certificate was still valid? I have since replaced the certificate and will need to redistribute to my (thousands of) users however when I test it out using a future date and time the same error occurs. Any information to help resolve this would be grately appreciated.

    my command:
    C:\Users\HOME USE\Desktop\AIR Development\HelloWorld>adl
    application.xml
    C:\Users\HOME USE\Desktop\AIR Development\HelloWorld>adt
    -certificate -cn HelloW
    orld 1024-RSA certHelloWorld.pfx password
    C:\Users\HOME USE\Desktop\AIR Development\HelloWorld>adt
    -package -storetype pkc
    s12 -keystore certHelloWorld.pfx HelloWorld.air
    application.xml HelloWorld.html
    password: password

  • Please help:error w/ adobe download assistant"application could not be installed because another..."

    Application could not be installed because another application is already being installed. Please finish the first application before preceeding with this one". It says something like that. I hit the download button and then hit save. It downloaded something, but that was it. So I went back and hit "save and run" and this message appears. I am not sure how to run what I saved initially if that is even the problem. Please help. I need to use this program tonight - the trial of CS5 Extended. Thank you!

    Have you tried restarting your computer?  It is possible you have a pending update or even another piece of software being installed which is preventing the installation.

    Hi Elmer,
    I researched this error message, I think you can try the methods below:
    Increase the timeout of the connection between the client and the server
    Increase  Client timeout, and it is set in the Application class in the Client Project
    For further information: Error message: Unable to save data
