Re: Prerequisites can't be uninstalled: "The feature you are trying to use is on a network resource that is unavailable.

Hello, So I think that would solve the issue... BUT... only if they install SQL or run the repair as the same user because your prerequisites are copied and run from: [AppDataFolder][|Manufacturer]\[|ProductName]\prerequisites You can specify another folder but you can't specify APPDIR - I suppose y...

Hello, I have created a sample project: https://www.centrel-solutions.com/temp/project.zip 1. It doesn't matter whether you use Project A (pre-install) or Project B (Feature-based) they both install the SQL Server 17 ODBC driver. 2. Check that the ODBC driver is installed https://www.centrel-solutio...

Prerequisites can't be uninstalled: "The feature you are trying to use is on a network resource that is unavailable."

Hello, We are installing the Microsoft ODBC Driver for SQL Server as a prerequisite however we have a problem. If the user then tries to uninstall the ODBC driver (or upgrades SQL Server on that machine) the system tries to uninstall the ODBC driver - however because the prerequisites in AdvancedIns...

Re: Windows Features Prerequisites...?

Hello, Thanks for the reply. I'm not sure that the feature you mention is the tools, or whether it's the actual DFS namespaces feature. Either way the Features section isn't really fit for purpose anymore - it's really hard to use and it's inconsistent between server operating systems and desktop op...

Windows Features Prerequisites...?

Hello, I'm trying to install the DFS Management Tools Windows feature but finding things in the Windows Features Prerequisites in Advanced Installer has become all but impossible. The user interface doesn't match the Windows Server interface any more. It seems to be a mixture of DISM naming, Windows...

Re: BUG: Cannot install services as NT AUTHORITY\LOCAL SERVICE is non-English versions of Windows

Yes that works thanks! I was trying "NT AUTHORITY\LOCAL SERVICE" which works for English language but does not work for non-English. It would be good to have this in the AdvancedInstaller documentation as I was also trying to use the built in properties [DOMAIN_NT_AUTHORITY]\[USR_LOCAL_SER...

When you install a service using Advanced installer and want to use the NT AUTHORITY\LOCAL SERVICE account you can enter this name and it works correctly however this is not possible in foreign languages - for example below on a French server.

Re: BUG: AdvancedInstaller locks an exited installation

Hello, We've done some more testing and this has been an issue for a while, it's not isolated to the current version of AdvancedInstaller. Cancelling pre-requisites will cause other installers that require exclusive access to Windows Installer to fail under the user reboots or manually terminates th...
