Its possible that I have something else configured incorrectly but I ...

Solved

I was able to reproduce the problem by installing the older version on a test machine and then installing the newer one. It starts installing, detects the older version and begins uninstalling. For some reason this fails.

The solution was to uninstall manually. Now everything works fine.

The DLL ...

A clue?

If the user in question had an older alpha version that had been created with an unlicensed version of AdvancedInstaller and attempted to upgrade would the uninstaller display the message about being unlicensed?

We just had someone else report the issue but when they uninstalled the old version ...

Problem with AdvancedInstaller 1.9 on Windows 2000

I created an installer using Windows 2000 and AdvancedInstaller 1.9 (I haven't upgraded our build machine to 2.0 yet). It seems to install fine on several machines around the office, including a virtual pc running a fresh copy of windows 2000.

However, two beta testers have reported problems when ...

Thanks for the reply. Yes, I am using 1.5. My theory is the problem is happening because with the trial version it wants to display the dialog box telling me that this is a trial version and I have X days left. But that is just a guess.

I'll send you the file though.

Thanks,

Jason

Specify destination directory for command line build

I am evaluating the AdvancedInstaller and like what I see. We will probably purchase it soon.

One thing I was wondering though. Is there a way to build from the command line and have the output file go somewhere other than the current directory? I want to set our Ant build script to build the ...
