Here is the link to the Microsoft download.

Note that you will get SSCERuntime-ENU.exe

If you execute it, you get a popup asking where you want to decompose it. The individual parts are what I am trying to integrate into the pre-requisites ...

The installer from Microsoft decomposes into a 32 bit msi and a 64 bit msi when you execute their package but does not install anything. It simply says to install on a 64 bit machine first the 32 bit msi and then the 64 bit msi. But I have not been able to get the AI IDE to do this. After I specify ...

I currently have one option to install a GUI interface rather than command line only interface for the product I am packaging. So the user gets command line only unless the feature is selected in the AI dialog for custom setup.

So apparently, since only a public property can be passed to the ...

I don't understand the documentation, starting with this "This type of prerequisites have attached a feature with the same display name. Dependencies between prerequisites or/and application features can be configured using the prerequisite feature.?"

I have prereq for a GUI interface but not for ...

I don't find a reference to -noprodcode in the user guide. But there are several references to it in forum posts, including of my own from over a year ago.

Does it work in the latest AdvancedInstaller? If so, why is it not in the user guide? Or is the search not working?

Switching to global option works for me. In previous versions (prior to 7.7) I never had to look at the options tab so this never occurred to me. In the case of dot net framework, I think global should be the default. But now I know what to look for. Thank you.

I think this is related to a problem I am having. When I upgraded from 7.6 to 7.7, I noticed that if I specify an installer prerequisite of dot net framework 3.5 sp1, in the GUI panel it generates 3 registry entries to check for the install conditions. However, NONE of these appear in the generated ...

The UserRegistrationDLG fills in the USERNAME and I can see that it is the same as the environmental variable USERNAME. But, on some systems, it can find the company name and on others it cannot. There is no environmental variable called COMPANYNAME. Does this dialog box use registry values? If so ...

I found what I think is a better solution for our environment.

I package the installer, consisting of bootstrapper, ini and msi/cab files, along with a preinstall.exe (AutoIt3 compiled script) in a self-extracting executable file.

The self-extracting package is created by PackageForTheWeb - an ...

I think you may not want to install the 4000 files individually. I had a similar problem with over 6000 files. I packaged them as a self-extracting executable, which was unpacked in the root folder by a custom action of the installer. At uninstall time, you remove the folder.

The issue with me was ...

I think I know the reason. Although I use /SetVersion, I am actually not changing it. Each time we have a new VUF, I make the change in source control. So the /SetVersion in the script is actually redundant. The important parameter is the buildnumber, which identifies the full V.U.F.B

I don't know ...

jbridges

Sorry it took me so long to respond. here is the sequence of commands I used in a batch build (following the copy). The VUF is set in the script and the BuildNumber is generated - the changenumber from our Perforce source control.

You can automatically remove the prior build of the same version via a preinstall script. See my reply under
"Update the Product Version"

jbridges

I faced a similar problem and solved it in a different way. I do want to keep the same V.U.F (the "version" recognized) but I also have a build number (V.U.F.B). B changes with each build but V.U.F does not. Thus, the Windows Installer will tell you that the version is already installed when you try ...

jbridges

I use the /SetVersion on a copy of the original project file and do not use the -noprodcode parameter (of which I was not aware). However a grep of the original and modified copy show the ProductCode as identical. So I am puzzled!!

I use the /SetVersion in conjunction with /Edit and so maybe this ...
