Re: Custom Features Installation Through Command Prompt

Hi

I have a problem with a similar situation. To show, I used the project from this thread and changed it so it has the same issue as our Installer has. (see attached "test.zip")

What I want to do:
- "Enable" or "Disable" a feature according to a Combo Box on a dialog before the "ConfigureDlg ...

Re: create patch - how to extract multilanguage msi

Hi,

After some research I found a possibility to automate part of this procedure for my application, because I need to build an updated patch daily. Maybe it's useful for other users.

I created a Post-Build Event in my Patch-Project with the following settings:
- Command: C:\Program Files ...

Re: create patch - how to extract multilanguage msi

Hi,

Thanks for this procedure, I use that now to create a single patch for a multilanguage installer.
Is there no possibility to get the same behavior without using Orca? I am asking because there seem to be options in Advanced Installer concerning Product Code mismatches. But they do not seem to ...

Re: Problems using prerequisites

Hi Dan

Thanks for your reply and I wish you happy new year too!

Attached you can find a shrinked down version of my project folder. It does need a x64 Windows Version (tested with Windows 7 Pro x64) and an installed JRE 7 x86 to be built, all the other things should be included.

When being ...

Re: Problems using prerequisites

Hi Dan

I've attached the project and some logs. Now I must say, that the behavior in maintenance seems to be better than the first time I tested.

Here is what I have done when creating the logs:
1. Install with all features -> all prerequisites installed, ok
2. Uninstalled all subfeatures in ...

Problems using prerequisites

Hi

I'm using multiple feature-based prerequisites (device drivers with exe-installers) in my project. The application to install has subfeatures, and the driver-prerequisites are subfeatures of these subfeatures, so that only these drivers are installed, that are needed. Now I encounter two ...

Re: Search, Registry Location - type "path and file"

Hi Daniel

Thanks for your nice welcome and your answer. It works as expected! What is a bit strange though, is that [&run.bat] in the "Launch file" custom action is underlined and marked as invalid identifier. Is it maybe because I configured the custom action as a custom action without sequence ...

Re: Search, Registry Location - type "path and file"

I have a similar problem here. I read a path to an exe-file from the registry, which has quotation marks around it.

How can I use a custom action to execute the exe-file? The custom action "LaunchFileFromProperty" doesn't work, as it does not cope correctly with the quotation marks. Maybe it is ...
