Hello, I'm glad you managed to find the culprit. Normally, the AI_DATA_SETTER custom action is used to set the "CustomActionData" property, to further use it on the "Deferred" stage of the installation process, since other properties are not accessible during that. The main way o...

Hello, You are indeed right about that, it looks like I overcomplicated it on my end. Apologies for that. What you can do is indeed: - have two browse operations - have a "Set property" custom action that will set APPDIR to the desired value Note: the "Application Folder" value i...

Hello Luka, Thank you for going above and beyond. Say hello to Eusebiu. You are always welcome and sure, I've sent your regards to him. Now, regarding your question, it is possible to pass the command line by using the "Command line" field from the "Update Installer" tab. However...

Hello Goran, In order for me to run a test and further investigate this on my end, please forward me the following resources by email at support at advancedinstaller dot com : - a copy of the AIP file for the penultimate version (e.g. if the latest version is 2.0, please forward me the AIP file for ...

Hello,

What I'm thinking would help here is the use of "Synchronized folders", which will automatically remove the file if it was removed/moved from disk.

Other than that, I'm afraid I'm not aware of any method to bypass the "file not found" build error.

Hello David and welcome to our forums, This is indeed an interesting scenario. What I'm thinking we can do is perhaps two different custom dialogs, the first where the customer selects the Website and then another one where he selects the Physical path. The only issue I see here is how the files wil...

Hello Kraig,

Apologies, it looks like I somehow overlooked your email.

In order for me to further test and investigate this, please forward me a test-case as well.

Looking forward to hearing from you!

Best regards,

Hello Luka, I've actually talked to my colleague Eusebiu and he told me that at the time of that post, he was with the company for like 3 months, so the answer is indeed wrong. :) Also, is there some way of triggering the Wizard Dialogs stage in a hidden way or just briefly in order to accomplish th...

Hello Stefan, That might be happening because the feature that contains the file is not actually "reinstalled" so it overwrites the old value. To achieve what you want, you can proceed as it follows: - in "Components" page, move the data.xml component to a new feature, let's call...

Hello Goran, Thank you for your followup on this and for sharing the details with me. When I do the update and it is finished the version in ApplicationVersion is 2.0.0.1. This would indicate that the new version was actually installed. For instance, if you check the Control Panel, is the new versio...

Hello Luka, Although you see some improvements, as you mentioned, this is not the "expected" behavior. The reason for that is a limitation of Windows Installer (the technology Advanced Installer is built upon). By default, the installation type is set to "per-machine" . If someon...

Hey Steve,

It's still not quite clear for me what the problem is on your Jenkins Server.

If possible, could you please share some screenshots with me so I can have a better view of this issue?

Best regards,

Hello Ricardo,

Have you tried the "Application Mappings" section from the IIS page?
