Hi Catalin,
Thanks for your valuable support.
Also, I have one query.... Can we just display error message on command line instead of showing error prompt?

Is it possible?

Thanks,
Balaji

Hello Balaji,

You are always welcome! I am glad I was able to help.

If you are looking to display the message in the same command prompt console that launches the setup, I'm afraid that might not be possible.

A way of achieving this would be by wrapping the setup into a .BAT file (e.g. launch the setup through a batch file) and based on the return code of the MSI, write something to the console (through ECHO).

Best regards,
Catalin

Hi Catalin,
Thanks for reply.
I have gone through your previous reply. But, is it achievable without wrapping the setup into a .BAT file (e.g. launch the setup through a batch file).
Is there any other alternative way to display error message on command line?
Instead can we achieve it through some scripting or custom actions?

Thanks!

I can not say for sure that this is not possible.

However, I am not aware of any way to achieve this.

From your script, you should somehow get the focus of the parent command prompt and echo a message to that prompt.
