Hi, I encountered the same problem.
My case was that the .pkg file was not installing a dll required by my application to start. The problem didn't turn up at compile or linking time because it was the client dll of a Symbian client/server engine. The client appl (my appl that was not starting) knows the API but don't expect the dll to be there at compile time.

Didn't you forget to add the RSC file in the PKG ?

There can be many reasons for this. Explanation is simple, something is missing, so its KErrNotFound(-1)
1. As Eric pointed out, may be Rsc is missing
2. Or some dll is missing
3. Or you are linking with a wrong lib(almost same as 2)

I my case, its normally the third problem, when I link with a wrong lib, and its missing.

Jus chk....

Hi,

Check the uid, it should be similar in all files. Check your application class and .mmp file and .pkg file. And UID should belongs to 3rd edition.

Check the format of files in the PKG of the application......
