So I’m creating an install file, and I don’t need/want code signing at this point.
However on compile I get an error:
Processing Uninstall Code-Signing…
Adding Digital Certificate to Uninstall…
Resolve CSI…
SIGNTOOL
SVER: 6.1.7600.16385
SHA2: 1
Compiler error GEN1053: Code signing process failed. Error Code: 1
Cleaning environment after compile error…
This is pretty much all done in scripts, and cannot find where this is to stop it.
Everything seems to say don’t sign.
Any pointers?
Sean,
General Information → Digital Signature → Set “Add a Digital Signature” to “No”.
This will disable the code-signing process for the install and uninstall.
HTH,
Friedrich
Yeah… thanks Friedrich, problem is, that the way it’s currently set.
Hence my confusion and post 
Hmmm… could you please send the project file (.sbp) to [email protected] and we’ll check the underlying .tps database structure.
Friedrich
email sent
Thanks for any help
Strange. I commented-out your include scripts (because these are required to do a full compile) and the project does not trigger any code-signing in SB 2019 here…
Just for fun, to test it, when you comment out your include scripts - one by another - does this change anything? Perhaps one of the .sbi include scripts cause it, but I have never ever seen this before.

Sean,
very interesting. Since 2010 (15 years ago 
) the SetupBuilder compiler can detect a .sbp project file renamed to a .sbi include script and then stop the compilation process with a fatal error. Your “load files.sbi” include script (created with SetupBuilder 6.9.2454) is such a renamed project file. But SetupBuilder (including the new 2025 BETA) can’t detect this one.
I’ll fix it in SetupBuilder 2025. Thank you for your help and for bringing this to my attention! I removed the “project” file specific properties from your “include” script and sent it via email.
Friedrich
I have received the email and indeed that has fixed my issue.
It would be better I think to offer to change the spb to an sbi, and warn that it’s irreversible. Or have a small utility to do this.
Really appreciate the help, thank you.
