Hi Zsolt, I think we can agree that this is a bug in Advanced Installer. My feeling is that me as an AI user configured the .aip just fine: I've already added this to our list so we will implement an improvement in this matter. Is there an easy way - maybe directly in the .aip's xml - to get the ent...

Hi Zsolt, Thank you for sharing the resources with me. I've investigated them and I managed to find the problem. I see that the problematic assemblies are shared between features, but some features are included only in the "Server" build and other features are included in the "Client&...

Hi Zsolt, This is strange. I do not see why there should be a problem with sharing the assemblies' components. Can you reproduce this behavior on a clean machine, as well? Does it also appear if you try to add those assemblies in a new simple project? If so, can you share those assemblies with me, s...

Hi, Please keep in mind that as mentioned at the end of the " How to handle updates without elevation " article, when the support service is used to install updates without elevation, the same certificate (or a new certificate with the same Subject) must be used, otherwise the UAC will pro...

Hi Zsolt, The log file shows that the IIS configuration fails because the file keeping the IIS settings (applicationHost.config) is kept in use by another process. Can you please ask your client to check the Event Viewer for any information about this problem? Maybe some Windows Updates are running ...

Hi Prakash,

Can you register the 12.5.1 version of Advanced Installer with your license key as detailed in the "Registering Advanced Installer" article and see if this helps?

Hi Zsolt, This problem usually appears during a patch/minor upgrade installation, not a major upgrade. The patch does not support the removal of a component from a feature and if that rule is not respected the whole feature will not be installed anymore. You can read more details in the " Why i...

Hi Zsolt,

It seems that this issue was fixed long time ago, in version 15.7 of Advanced Installer, but we somehow missed this and did not announce it here. Reinstalling a prerequisite on "Repair" of the main package should work now.

Hello,

Indeed, if you send the /qb parameter on install, it will not be also used on uninstall, but the "Limit to basic user interface" option from the "Install Parameters" page will affect the install and uninstall, as well.

Hello Tanya, I'm afraid that it is not possible to enable Basic UI only in install and disable it on uninstall. Can you try to create a verbose log on the uninstall using one of the methods described in the " Install Logs for .exe Project " thread to see why the uninstallation hangs? Best ...

You're welcome. Glad to assist.

Best regards,

You're welcome, Tanya. Glad to help.

Hello Tanya, The easiest way to achieve this is to go in the "Custom Actions" page and add two "Launch file" custom actions as deferred (one for 32-bit and another for 64-bit), then set the appropriate conditions for them. The 32-bit custom action can look as in the example below...

Hi, That is, how do I stop each of the projects in my suit from having to download and install the Merge Module. Please keep in mind that the Merge Module project will create a .msm file that should be added to each of the sub-installers. That merge module will be integrated into those installers, b...

Hi, Could you be kind enough to advise me how to have the "satellite" project's Start Menu links grouped in the Windows Start Menu - in your example aip "Suite Installation". The shortcuts from the Start Menu are always displayed under a single folder, subfolders are not allowed ...
