Hi there
For the last 2 days I've been trying to install an application but keep getting the following error message:
"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."
I've searched this forum and on Google for a solution, but nothing has worked so far.
I`ve tried the following (instructions from developer`s support) more times than I`d care to think about:
1. First uninstall Kudani if you have an existing install
2. Make sure the Kudani application folder does not exist in c:\Program Files or c:\Program Files (x86)
3. Check that your computer's system clock is correct. Correct the date and time if it not current.
4. Make sure you have the latest version of the Adobe AIR runtime installed. You can download it from http://get.adobe.com/air
5. Now try installing Kudani
Every time, I made sure I removed all traces. I even tried uninstalling/reinstalling Air, but no luck.
This page http://helpx.adobe.com/air/kb/troubleshoot-air-installation-windows.ht ml recommends posting the log file contents here.
So here they are:
