For me license servers are still down.

For activation of an installation?

[ertank 29]

license.embarcadero.com gives error in the installer.

Is this during the activation of the installation in the installation process?
Was there a specific error?  Anything in the install log that gives a clue to the nature of the error?

http://license.embarcadero.com works - so the server is online...

I can't see the parnassus bookmarks for D12 in getit.

[Uwe Raabe 2083]

I guess this is the reason for

There is still ongoing work to provide some missing packages, which we are aiming to complete by this week.

[Attila Kovacs 634]

Is there an offline installer for that?

[Uwe Raabe 2083]

Yes, Embarcadero General Packages Download for RAD Studio 12.0 on https://my.embarcadero.com/

[Attila Kovacs 634]

Cool, thx. Now I have to figure out why my new D12 not listed on that page. Can't see any "register product" menu.

@Shrinavat I was looking for the bookmarks plugin, but plz. don't deeplink it here 😄

[Clément 151]

I just installed the patch I downloaded from Getit without any issues. 

[shineworld 79]

Me to. Updated to 1st of most (I hope) patches 🙂

[pmcgee 23]

Is it running very quickly for everyone else as well, now?

I have spotted this warning about the patch 1 for C++ users....

I just installed the patch. I’m a C++ user – couldn’t build my projects with 12.0, when building a package components don’t show up. But this is another story. OK.

At least I was able to build test projects with 12.0. Now after the patch, RAD Studio can no longer link a bare C++ VCL project without anything in it for Win64 (Win32 works). For Win64 I get:

[ilink64 Error] Fatal: Unable to open file ‘;E:\RADSTUDIO12BETA\JEDI\JCL-MASTER\JCL\LIB\D29\WIN64;C:\USERS\x y\DOCUMENTS\EMBARCADERO\STUDIO\23.0\CATALOGREPOSITORY\JEDICODELIBRARYJCL-2023.11\LIB\D29\WIN64;C:\USERS\PUBLIC\DOCUMENTS\EMBARCADERO\STUDIO\23.0\DCP\WIN64\RELEASE;C:\USERS\PUBLIC\D’

The only thing I did was installing the patch!!!

@Roger Cigol - That is multiple paths ... has the Path been corrupted somehow?

In a fight club context, I am not happy about that first path name.

[oliwe 6]

The problem was - as one might suspect - a path problem. Going to "Tools->Options->Language->C++->Paths and Definitions". Then Platfrom Win64, and then under Library path all paths were created multiple times - not just the JEDI paths, so e.g. "$(BDSLIB)\win64\release" was several times in the list. This probably resulted in a string that was too long and caused the link command to fail. Sorry - I have nothing good to say about 12.0 - it's just a mess. And I am a patient person. The last few weeks have been scary. But hopefully it continues, hope dies last.

I have just installed RAD Studio 12.0 path 1 using Getit. It all ran through smoothly - no errors reported. I got the readme displayed at the end with the patch 1 information. 

My original installation was done from the downloaded RAD Studio 12.0 ISO. 

I can build a complex VCL C++ 64 bit project - no errors, as before (using TwineCompile).

Only problem I have is that the IDE still says "patch available" and the Help | About does not mention the patch 1 upgrade.

Note; My installation is a bit unusual in that my original install is to D:\Program Files (x86)\Embarcadero\Studio\23.0   Note; D drive rather than C drive !

Using BeyondCompare on the data obtained by Help | About and then clicking on "Version Information...." does show many newer version numbered files 

and in my ....\Studio\23.0 installation directory I do have a new directory called _patch-backup which contains all the old files, so I am sure my patch installation

has gone in ok.

 

I really like the visual assist integration in C++ for RAD Studio 12.0. It all seems to work well and is a very useful addition to the editing experience.

Getit struggles to install the new patch 1. I installed Delphi with Webinstaller. When i run tGetit,  the log says:

Any idea what the problem could be?

 

[psycodad 3]

It was the Sophos virus scanner. I could have figured it out earlier....
