Chained Prerequisite Issue with command line

Hi,
We have recently upgraded to advanced installer 22.8. As per the updated user guide, we are trying to add the chained prerequisite package with appropriate command. But the chained package is facing issue in CLI mode. The chained package is not getting installed. It is also showing network path issue in basic UI mode. And sometimes with full UI too it is getting stuck for a longer period of time.

We are using following command to add prerequisites:

call "AdvancedInstaller.com" /edit %AIP_PATH% /NewPrerequisite %DISPLAY_NAME% -type FeatureBased -prereq_path %Package_MSI_PATH% -ui_level Silent -cmd_basic_ui /qb -cmd_silent_ui /qn -search_type UpgradeCode -search_path %MSI_UPGRADE_code% -minversion %MIN_VERSION% -target_os Win64 -chained

We also have following queries:
-Is there any OS version related condition to run the exe made with 22.8 version of advanced installer?
-Is there any Min system spec related condition that is not mentioned in the user guide?
We are running these .exe on windows 10 and windows 11 OS with System spec being i7 10th gen 8GB RAM, 512GB Storage VMs.

Please look into this and do the needful.

Best regards,
Balaji

Re: Chained Prerequisite Issue with command line

Hello Balaji,

In our latest version, we have changed some things regarding the prerequisites support.

If possible, could you please try that and let me know if it helps with the issues you are encountering?

Regarding your questions, please allow me to address them below:
-Is there any OS version related condition to run the exe made with 22.8 version of advanced installer?
If you want, yes, you can set conditions for your EXE to run on specific OS systems. To do so, you can go to "Launch Conditions" page --> "System" tab --> "Supported Operating Systems".
-Is there any Min system spec related condition that is not mentioned in the user guide?
Not quite sure what you mean by this. If you mean the compatibility of packages created with Advanced Installer and specific OSs, then there are some limitations, yes. These can be seen here: Advanced Installer Requirements
We are running these .exe on windows 10 and windows 11 OS with System spec being i7 10th gen 8GB RAM, 512GB Storage VMs.
Everything should be working just fine, then. There is no limitation regarding packages built with our latest version and Windows 10/11.
