Hello,
I currently have a multi-language installer in which the user chooses their install language as the first step. After the user chooses their install language, I would like to set a registry value based off their selection, as my program reads the registry to know what language it should ...

Updates don't work in localized language installer
I am creating an installer that will get updates. This installer has 4 builds: DEV, TEST, STAGE, PROD. In order to maintain 1 single installer that can point to 4 different URLs (DEV url, TEST url, etc..) for updates.

Daniel,
When I run the command:
Updater.exe /set loglevel "Error|Debug"
I get no command line output from the updater to indicate either success or failure. I am also unable to see any logs output in the download location. I'm looking in the downloads folder that's specified in the "Configure ...

I am using AI version 14.7. I have been trying to make an update for my program and have been running into an interesting issue. When I run the updater to check for an update, it sees that I have an update on the server and does the download, then I see a quick flash of text that says "Checking ...

Custom action without sequence not running
Hello,
I am trying to configure AI to detect if a particular driver is installed, and if it isn't run a custom action to install it. I am doing the detection with a powershell script, and that works fine. However, I followed the instructions here: http://www.advancedinstaller.com/user-guide/qa ...

Re: Support for updater locations per build
Eusebiu,
Thanks for the reply. I'm trying to better understand your first suggestion, looking into properties seems to be promising, but I'm wondering 2 things:
1. Is there a way to swap out the values of both the Pre-install updates as well as the updates configuration file URL's at build time ...

Support for updater locations per build
It would be very nice if AI could support having updater options be available per build. For example, I currently maintain 4 separate AI projects with the only difference between the 4 of them being the location that is pointed to for updates. This is so I can maintain a DEV/TEST/STAGE/PROD versions ...

Re: Launch File custom action command line error
Thank you for the response. I have decided to go with the workaround provided, of just running the entire installation as administrator. That seems to work for now
