Hi All,
During the automated installation process of the TMS components for Delphi Alexandria 11.1, I got an error message.
Here after the extract of the build log :

Could someone give me some direction to search for and solve this problem ?
Thanks by advance,

Hi,
This normally means that you don't have firemonkey installed in delphi, see FlexCel Installation Guide | FlexCel Studio for VCL and FireMonkey documentation

There are 2 possibilities:

1. You don't have and don't care about firemonkey. If that is the case, remove "FireMonkey support" from the setup, as shown in the screenshot above.

2. You care about firemonkey. In that case, try creating an empty firemonkey solution with delphi, and deploy it to all platforms you want to support. Once that is working, reinstall FlexCel selecting those platforms.

Hello Adrian,
Thanks for your answer.

I thought I let Delphi install Firemonkey ... I can create a "multi-platform" application, but cannot compile it.
So I solved the problem by removing Firemonkey Support.

I'll try later to solve this Firemonkey problem.
Thanks for your help
