Install pre-requisites software using silent install

[kiranchauhan91]

Hello,

We have used pre-requisites to install external program. It is installed silently regardless if full GUI used for installer. I am facing one issue. Pre-reqs are not installed when I install the installer silently using following command:

Code: Select all

setup.exe /quiet

It completely ignores it. I have read on other forums that it is not supported but do we have a work around to this problem?

Hello,

Please send us the .AIP (project) and a verbose log of the installation to support at advancedinstaller dot com so we can investigate them.

Best regards,

Hello,

I've analyzed your project and log file. Thank you for sending them.

According to your log the features associated with the prerequisites are not scheduled for installation because their install condition is evaluated to false. During the silent installation the install condition of the features is evaluated during "Cost Finalize" action from "Paths Resolution" stage.

I've noticed that your custom action that sets the properties used in the features install conditions is scheduled to run after paths resolution. Instead you should place it before "Paths Resolution" in "Install Execution Stage", ensuring the features install condition is true at the time it is evaluated.
