Hi,

Only the custom actions that relies on temporary files must be recreated.
If you still encounter other problems you could send us the AIP file at support at advancedinstaller dot com.

Hi,

The temporary files are extracted before the dialogs are displayed in order to be available also in those dialogs. Your temporary file is extracted in the default application location because when the location is changed the temporary file has been already extracted.

Hi,

"AdvancedInstaller.exe" is a GUI application not a console one. That is why the console is detached from the process.

From the command line you must launch "AdvancedInstaller.com".

Hi,

You can't obtain the return value of a prerequisite installation. The bootsrapper only checks it and displays a message box. We add that on our TO DO list.

The install condition is evaluated in order to determine if the prerequisite should be installed, and after prerequisite's installation ...

Hi,

You must use the following minimum version string "3.01" instead "3.1" (you will not find "3.01" in the combo box, you must type directly).

That happens because WI does not sets the VersionMsi property according with the specification.

Hi,

You must place them in the "Application Data" folder, and use a "Per User only" installation type.

You can find the "Installation Type" option in the "Install Parameters" page.

All the best,

Hi,


I've made some progress. Using orca I've discovered that the 'real' name of the feature I put the service and registry entries into is not the name I assign, i.e., "Bridgeip", but rather it is "Feature_5". If there was any way to discover this without analyzing the .msi file with orca, I ...

Hi,

The problem is that the Bootstrapper can't retrieve the file name from a indirected URL. We added that on our TO DO list.

You must use an URL address from which can be extracted a valid file name. Something like: http ://yoursite/dotnetfx.exe.

Also, it is recommended to use an URL address ...

Hi,

You can try to copy the dependencies into a folder that resides in PATH, or in AdvancedInstaller folder. In this way you may be able to register the OCX file using "Extract Registration Info" from the "Edit File" dialog.

If that don't works, you can try the "Self Regisration" option.

Hi,

Could you please give me more details about your project and about what files are deleted?

I doubt that this has something to do with Advanced Installer being installed or not on the target machine.

Waiting for your answer,

Hi,

That message appears when you try to install a version that is already installed from a package with a different PackageCode. At every built, a new PackageCode is generated.

If you encounter that error it means that you modified the package and you not removed the previous installation.

If the package with bundle JRE was installed then the java application always uses the bundled version of JRE. You must find in the INI file an entry named "JRE Path" set to the installation directory of your application.

If not, you can force the usage of a specific VM, by opening the INI ...
