Re: Regular expression for selecting a set of archive files

Hi Daniel, what kind of ACLs are you thinking of? The user starting the setup is granted read access to the network share, however, the local system account will most probably be denied access to the share, is it this what you meen? Is there a way of achieving the copy on behalf of the user starting...

Re: Regular expression for selecting a set of archive files

Hi Daniel,

thanks for your replay, I'll give it a try with the article you've linked.

Will the elevated installer process still be able to access the network share using the user's credentials?

Thanks again and kind regards,

Milen

There is one more question regarding the same installation procedure. The to be extracted archive file may be placed together with the setup file in some scenarios on a network share accessible either through an UNC URI or a locally mapped drive letter. I am wondering how can I set up the custom act...

Re: Regular expression for selecting a set of archive files

Hello Daniel, Thank you for your reply. I will consider coding a custom action for that. I am concerned with the ability to give the user accurate feedback about the forthcomings of the archive extraction - in some cases the archive files can exceed 40 GB so the custom action would take a lot of con...

Regular expression for selecting a set of archive files

Hello, I am looking for a way for identifying a set of files within SETUPEXEDIR based on a regular expression pattern and storing them somehow within installer properties. The goal is to extract those files (zip archives) during installation (first time or upgrade) given the user has chosen so withi...

Re: Installed Java Service running but not visible within MMC Services snap-in

Hi Bogdan,

we have observed the same behavior on any machine we and our customer tested the installer on. This includes Windows 7 and 8.1 machines. Any other ideas?

Showing cyrillic and chinese text on a german machine

Hallo together, using AI 11.8, we've stumbled over the following issue: during first-time installation we present a list of languages the user can chose from (different from the setup language itself). We want each language within this list to be named in that particular language, i.e. English for E...

Re: Custom Maintenance Action

Hello Eusebiu,

thank you, this solves the issue. Interestingly, some of the Lines of the InstallUISequence table already had the custom conditions we introduced previously, maybe a migration issue or a divergent development after we created the second build.

Greetings,

Re: Delivering Updates interchangeably as EXE and MSI packag

Hello Eusebiu, thank you very much, using the MSIZap utility solved the issue. Further testing just has shown that this is still not working as expected, i.e. the updater tool is not updated itself when a new setup is available than the version installed: I'm not sure why this happens. Can you pleas...
