Re: Request: TFS2015 / VSO Build Task

Hi Dan,

Is there a way to build on the VSO Hosted Agents? They are limited in what software they come with (https://www.visualstudio.com/en-us/docs/build/agents/hosted-pool#software), but perhaps there is a way to install Advanced Installer as part of the build via the command line?

I also couldn ...

Re: Windows Installer 4.5 prerequite problems?

Thanks Daniel. I'm wondering though why it's necessary to check the OS version via the registry lookup if it's already been checked by the "Windows Version" checkboxes above.

Windows Installer 4.5 prerequite problems?

Dear Advanced Installer staff,

I've added all the Windows Installer 4.5 prerequites to my project and don't understand these points:

Supported Windows Versions seems to be wrong - for example in "Windows Installer 4.5 for Windows XP x86" all 64-bit versions are checked, as are 32-bit Windows 8 and ...

Re: Suggestions for predefined prerequisites

I would like for the Windows Installer 4.5 prerequisites to give the option of having AI download the files from a URL, similar to the way it's done for the .NET Framework 2.0 SP2.

Re: Can't launch an EXE after installation that installs MSI

Hi Dan,

Thanks, but where in the installation sequence should I be scheduling that?

I think that this is becoming a bit too difficult - a better solution seems to be to re-design my application so that the configuration wizard is started when my main app is first run. I think I will do that ...

Re: Can't launch an EXE after installation that installs MSI

Thanks for that Dan. That works, but is there a way to keep the Advanced Installer UI dialog still running with a message like "loading configuration wizard, please complete it when it loads"?

Re: Can't launch an EXE after installation that installs MSI

Hi Dan,

Thanks for the welcome. My Advanced Installer project installs the main application as well as a configuration wizard that downloads, installs, and configures an SQL Server Express database. I would like this configuration wizard to run after or as part of the AI install. Currently I've set ...

Can't launch an EXE after installation that installs MSIs

Hi there,

I've followed the steps at http://www.advancedinstaller.com/user-guide/qa-launch-application.html and have my custom action executing after InstallFinalize. However this is still happening during a Windows Installer session, so when my EXE tries to install another MSI it is unsuccessful ...
