Re: Custom Action "Target" attribut and "TargetUnfomatted" attributes deliver wrong search results

Hi Catalin,

thank you very much for digging deeper in to that. Replacing all values of the "Target" attributes of my custom actions with "Script Text" did the trick.

Best regards,

Angelo

Re: Custom Action "Target" attribut and "TargetUnfomatted" attributes deliver wrong search results

Hi Catalin, in our case the target attribute does not contain "Script Text" but the whole script from the first time the action was created. This might be a legacy bug in AI installer. Can you figure out what the target tag should normally conatin? I would then run a regular expression exc...

Re: Custom Action "Target" attribut and "TargetUnfomatted" attributes deliver wrong search results

As you can see in the attached screenshot:

When searching for a date 01-02-17 Advanced installer finds the action "CheckIDAT_SQL_PASSWORD_PROP" because it searches in the "Target" attribute. But the actual date string is 19-02-24.

Re: Custom Action "Target" attribut and "TargetUnfomatted" attributes deliver wrong search results

Hi Catalin, add a custom inline action with some VBS script. Then open your AIP file with an editor and search for your action. You will see the <ROW/> tag has two attributes containing your VBS script. In the following example you can see the content of the custom action is doubled, but the "T...

MSI installer will be started on user logon via task scheduler if an installation has failed [solved]

Dear support,

I recognized the following behaviour. If an installtion was aborted for whatever reason, a task scheduler job triggered at user logon is registered that opens the MSI installer.

Is that a desired behavour and is it changeable?

Best regards,

Angelo
