Question
When attempting to install an application from Tizen IDE, I encounter the following error:
Cannot install application.
Error code: FATAL_ERROR
Error message: Success
Command: /usr/bin/pkgcmd -q -i -t tpk -p "/opt/usr/apps/tmp/org.example.sms_parsing-1.0.0-arm.tpk"
Management: Installation or uninstallation is not working temporarily.
I'm unable to determine the actual cause of this problem. The error message seems contradictory as it reports both a "FATAL_ERROR" and "Success."
Answer
Problem Understanding
The error occurs during TPK package installation through Tizen IDE, showing a confusing combination of "FATAL_ERROR" and "Success" messages. This typically indicates a system-level issue rather than a problem with the application itself.
Solution Methods
-
Update Device Date and Time:
- As reported by a community member, updating the device's date and time settings resolved this issue.
- Navigate to: Settings → System → Date and time

-
Check System Status:
- Verify that the device isn't in a temporary maintenance state
- Restart the device and try again

-
Reinstall Tizen Studio:

- Download the latest version from the official website
Additional Tips
- This error often occurs due to system-level inconsistencies rather than application-specific issues
- Always verify your development environment is properly configured
