Server install versus PC install - Appliation folder

Is there a way where my installer can recognize that it is installing on a server, and if so, install the a d:\. And if not a server than install to c:\?

Re: Advanced Installer not registering file but no error

I just figured out our problem. Our corporate team is now using a new image that did not have .NET Framework 4.0. Once I installed the framework everything worked fine.

Thanks!

Advanced Installer not registering file but no error

I have been successfully running a msi file that among other things registers a .dll file to com that is then used by another application. This has been working great until now. All our new computers that we install the msi on shows everything was successful, but the .dll file is not registered.

Re: Exception EOleSysError

After the error, if I uninstall everything and then reinstall, everything works fine. It is only the first time it is ever installed.

The exe file that shows the error is XRClient.exe, which is 3rd party software. The file assiciation is .XRA, which should run XRClient.exe.

Exception EOleSysError

I am using Advanced Installer 7.7 build 28804.

I am installing to Windows 7 32-bit OS.

I have two installers. The first installs file associations and ODBC driver because it must be ran by an admin.

The second installer only installs files to a directory and is run per user.

After I run the ...

Here is an email reply from tech support, which was very helpful.

Let me explain what you need to do:
-- first you will show the standard action Begin under InstallUISequence and InstallExecuteSequence in the "Custom Actions" page. Here is is explained how to do this:

Re: DetectProcess

Use the resulting property of the DetectProcess custom action to condition the next custom action (the one returning the values listed on MSDN).

Where do I add this in Advanced Installer?

Re: DetectProcess

You will then need a custom action that returns one of the values documented by MSDN here:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa368072(VS.85).aspx

Where do I put this custom action? I am not familiar with this and there is not much in the help docs.

Can you give me a step by step on what and ...

DetectProcess

I need to detect if a process is running, and if it is, do not install. I looked through the help and still cannot get this to work.

Under InstallUISequence I have a Begin. I then add 'Predefined Custom Action' called 'DetectProcess'.

For 'Action Data' I typed in XRclient.exe.

When I save and ...

Files and Folders

Would be nice if when user clicks on Files and Folders, Advanced Installer would not default to Application Folder.

I have 112 files that reside on our network, which takes a few minutes to load everytime I go to Files and Folders.

File Associations - Please wait while windows configures

If I set a file assocation, after the install I always get a box that pops up that states 'Please wait while windows configures [appname]' right before the application opens.

Is this standard? How can I remove this?

Thanks!

Scott
