Re: upgrading service now shows two versions in programs and features

Hello Mike,

After the SetVersion command line, could you please also add the following two command line parameters:

Code: Select all

Rebuild
Save
and retest this scenario on a clean snapshot of a Virtual Machine?

Hope this helps.

Best regards,
Catalin

Re: Error in Installing SQL Server 2012 using launch-file custom action

Hello and welcome to Advanced Installer forums, May I ask why you are not using our predefined support for prerequisites (which I believe is much easier to configure than a LaunchFile custom action)?

Re: attach sql db file show me error

Hello, I have done some further investigations about this and I think I found a workaround that will help you avoid creating a database at install time. Please go to "SQL Databases" page --> your predefined connection --> in "Database" field, please insert a property that resolve...

Hello and welcome to Advanced Installer forums, This is happening because a normal MSI does not support such metadata. For more information about this, please have a look on the following Summary Information Stream Property Set article. However, our .EXE allows several new metadata, such as the &quo...

Re: SOURCEDIR remains emtpy?

Hello Pieter, Could you please try to replace the SOURCEDIR property with SourceDir and see if that helps? The latter ( SourceDir property ) is the predefined Windows Installer property, while the latter is proprietary to us. After doing so, please rebuild your project and retest this scenario on a ...

Hello Jenelle, From what I understand here, you would like to get the version attribute from an executable and, based on that version fail the installer (please correct me if I'm wrong).

Re: upgrading service now shows two versions in programs and features

Hello Mike, This is quite strange, as the "/SetVersion" command should automatically change the ProductCode, as long as you do not specify not to by using the "-noprodcode" additional parameter. For more information about this, please have a look on our "Set Version Command ...
