Thanks for the answer. Ok, I check only the featres pane, and not the components pane. Ok, each component has it's GUID. But I do not understand how AI organizes/creates these components, as the members are somehow mixed. E.g. component Updater.exe.manifest contains these members: Deutsch.lng Englis...

Thanks for your answer, but... 1. myupdater.exe is a file and not a component, and I do not see how to change the GUID for a file. And even for a component I do not see a field for the GUID 2. I have all in all 5 projects and up to 20 files, some of then used by all applications some in only a few o...

I have several products and some of them install the same files, e.g. in C:\Program Files\Comm files\my companyname\myupdater.exe I install mypackage A that installs this myupdater.exe and mypackage B that installs this myupdater.exe as well. All is fin...

I use the AI 7.1.3 enterprise to create a exe with bootstrapper and the msi included. When a user updates my application, the installation is started with the parameter /qr so that all is done automatically. But with this the finish dialog is not shown and though the value of then checkbox 'launch a...

The error description is really wrong! the user would assume the installation file is corrupt. Can this be changed, or is this a wron error box of the msi that cannot be changed. This error message is given if the file is not available or corrupt (what usually happens). But that error is displayed ...

Hello, I use AI 7.1.3 enterprise to create a exe with msi inside The extract location has always been: [AppDataFolder][|Manufacturer]\[|ProductName]\install But as this is the users folder I thought this does not make sense. So I changed it to [CommonFilesFolder][|Manufacturer]\[|ProductName]\instal...

I got that fixed now. It was a problem with a feature. A file was only installed with a certain feature and not with the main feature (what should be the case). When upgrading from 2.5.3 to 2.6.0 to 2.6.1 error 2753 is still shown, but then the installation continues and succeed. Upgrading to 2.6.1 ...

Hi, I have a problem with updating an existing installation. I use AI 7.1.3 corporate to create an install-exe When I run that installation on a clean Windows XP, it works fine. When upgrading from an old version it works fine as well. But when the old version is uninstalled manually via the control...

Thanks for the answer, That's exactly what I tried to do: msiexec /fecms {myproductcode} MMREPAIR="1" I tried MMREPAIR=1 as well I tried conditions like: MMREPAIR=1 MMREPAIR="1" %MMREPAIR=1"" &MMREPAIR="1" but neither of them did work. Without condition my...

HI, When my product detects a problem during startup, it calls the installation with the options /fpecms e.g. msiexec /fpecms mypackage.msi to repair the installation. I want to start the main exe after that repair has finished automatically. Is that possible with a command line option? I have defin...
