Re: Patch changes environment variables

Dear Sorin,

I am wondering about this solution because this path contains the incorrect install path which was changed by the patch. I have changed this now to one of our own environment variables in SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Control\Session Manager\Environment and now it works. But thanks for this ...

Re: Patch changes environment variables

Dear Sorin,

we have main releases 0.X.0 which will update major features of the software and patches in between (0.0.X) which just update single or a few files. For the first time install the user can decide where to install (in SetupTypeDlg - e.g. E:\packagename) other than the default APPDIR. But ...

Re: Patch changes environment variables

I found out that my main package sets the paths correct but my patch always sets the paths to APPDIR back. This is problematic when someone installed to e.g. D:\ during the main package installation but the path puts it back to C:\... due to the APPDIR=[WINODWSVOLUME]... setting.
It looks for me as ...

Re: Patch changes environment variables

Hello,

I have to come back to this issue because I still face this problem. I want to release a new version of our software, therefore I have changed the product code, but not the upgrades code. The setting "Use original installation path when upgrading" is enabled and the installer founds the ...

Re: disk1.cab has an invalid digital signature on server2008r2 no internet

Hello Daniel,

you may check my project file why the signing does not work in cases the installing server does not have internet.

Another problem is that we use this project as Addon for another major project. Means the installation path of the major project is searched and the APPDIR is set to ...

Re: disk1.cab has an invalid digital signature on server2008r2 no internet

Hi,

it looks as that I can fix the issue when I use "LZMA compression" instead of CAB file archive. I use AI version 13.8. onyl. Is there a recent problem in the CAB file signing or is the signing different for LZMA compression?

Best regards,
Andre

Re: disk1.cab has an invalid digital signature on server2008r2 no internet

Hello,

I have nearly the same issue with one of my installer projects. When no internet access is available the installer fails with "invalid digital signature".
What I wonder the most is, I have other installer projects which uses the same certificate and signing option, but these installers do ...

I have a problem that one of my patches changes all environment variables during installation. This leads to a problem when users installed our software in another directory than our default APPDIR=[WindowsVolume]geopp

I usually just copy my previous used project (e.g. 1.6.0 -> 1.6.1), edit the new ...

Re: Installer is not using original installation path during Update

Hi Eusebiu,

please find attached the installation log file. I found indeed a chustom action which changes the APPDIR. I have deleted this action now, but the problem remains.

Let me allow another question in this post:
Does the installer detect which installation type (typcal, custom, complete ...

Installer is not using original installation path during Update

Hello,

I am working on this issue now for a week and cannot get it fixed. I have released a previous version of our software (version 1.5.0.) some months ago. Now I would like to release the next Update using nearly the same project file just with updated files and some minor changes. For this task ...

Re: Backup files before installation

That was also my thought that this action is carried out somewhere at the wrong time in the sequence. But I used the built-in File copy/move operation feature in "Files and Folders" tab and not a custom action. In this case it must be executed on my chosen component installation. And from the tree ...

Backup files before installation

Hi,
I would like to backup a directory before installation if the [APPDIR] that was chosen by the user during the installation already contains files and folders. I tried several things but nothing worked for me, yet. Last I tried similar actions as described in this previous post: http://www ...
