RadControls for ASPNET AJAX Fails

[Al]

Hi all,

I'm trying to install the Radcontrols for ASPNET AJAX on my development machine, which is a VMWare Windows 2008 server box. It has ASPNET AJAX extensions already installed.

Everytime i run the msi, i get the error message "This installation package is not supported by this processor type. Contact your product vendor." - almost like im trying to install a 64bit package on a 32bit system. I turned on the installation logging, and this is what was created:

As this is my first time using RadControls I'd really rather not attempting the manual install.

Can anyone help?

Thanks in advance

Hello Al,

The misunderstanding comes from the names of our installers.
You are trying to install RadControls_for_ASP.NET_AJAX_and_SharePoint_2010_Trial.msi which is in fact an installer for Share Point web parts.
Telerik.Web.UI_2010_2_713_Trial.msi is the installer for the RadControls for ASP.NET AJAX. Could you please download and install it.
Hope that the provided information is helpful. If you have any further questions feel free to write us again.

Best wishes,
Biliana

Hello Al,

The package you have downloaded contains our SharePoint web parts. As SharePoint 2010 requires 64 bit operating systems, the installation package is a 64 bit one.

If you wish to start development with RadControls for ASP.NET AJAX, the correct package to download would be the one labeled Automatic Installation in the download section.

Please, do not hesitate to contact us if you have any further questions.

Sincerely yours,
Andrey
