Re: Installer fails when trying to run Powershell command

Still working on this issue. The commands work perfectly well on the server Powershell ISE. What i've found in the log when it fails during install is that installer appears to be using vocabulary from Powershell 1.0 and it doesn't understand the command (It didn't exist in 1.0) which is found in th...

Re: Installer fails when trying to run Powershell command

Thanks very much Liviu, I'll work through those and learn from it. I've tried this on 2012 and 2019 servers (but not 2016 as there's not a test server free here just now). It works ok from the Powershell command line. However i'm just wondering if there may be a different version of Powershell i hav...

Re: .NET 4.7 and above - enable WCF \ http activation

Hi Caitlin,
I'm using Advanced Installer 12.7.2
What if the target OS doesn't appear in the Target Operating System section? (In this case it will be Windows server 2016 and Windows Serer 2019)
The request i was given was to enable WCF\Http Activation for Windows server 2019.

Many thanks,
Ian

Re: Applications and Virtual Directory showing root folder IIS

Ok, so figured this out - it was in the documentation and a little bit of trial and error. You have to set the install condition to (NOT Installed) for the root
and the rest goes in ok.
Hope this can be useful for others.

Re: Applications and Virtual Directory showing root folder IIS

Is this because the application folder is also the root folder? If so, how would i get around this - i've also tried having an empty folder alongside but both are brought into the IIS tree...

Upgrade from 12.7.2 to latest release

Good afternoon, We're looking to bring our build machine up to date. It is currently running an old version of Advanced Installer (12.7.2). We use a combination of AI to build the installer, SVN version control, Batch files and Jenkins to build - output the executables. I'm sure someone has gone dow...
