Install IDEA 5.0 (Win32) from jetbrains.com

Hello Andreas,

Hi!

When I install IDEA 5.0, an error occur:
"Extract: error writing to file tools.jar"
Is this my fault (download error or something) or your fault?

Check that you are installing into an empry directory.
MD5 sum of the installer is 492186439d073fb0e200c1bb37abfcfd.

I checked the file! My installrt is also MD5: 492186439d073fb0e200c1bb37abfcfd
I installed IDEA into 'E:\IntelliJ IDEA 5.0'
It's a Microsoft Windows NT OS.
But the same error...

Any suggestions?

greets

Andreas

If you have something that monitors files on your drive, try disabling it
(it may be antiviral monitor or local search engine, such as Google Desktop).

Try installing into different directory.

My antivir-monitor can't be disabled.
But in a week we change to XP.
Maybee that solves the problem.

As a workaround you can download zipped IDEA version:
http://download.jetbrains.com/idea/idea-5.0.zip

Unpack and run IDEA_HOME\bin\idea.bat
