Dear Advanced Installer Support Team,
Please let me report an installation issue for you: we´re not able to install a patch (.msp) because it´s trying to find a .CAB file called disk1.cab, although the .CAB file of the previous installation had a different name.
Here is our scenario:
1. We created our previous product by selecting the "EXE setup with resources next to it" option in AI 12.0. Into the "MSI name" field we filled "TheServer" word, so as a result we got a bunch of files:
- Setup.exe
- TheServer.msi
- TheServer.x64.msi
- TheServer1.cab
- few other files
2. We installed this product on our PC by doubleclicking on Setup.exe.
3. Then we created our current/latest product by using a different build type: "Single EXE setup (resources inside). As an outcome we got a single file only:
- TheServer.exe
4. In order to create a patch between our old and new products, we extracted TheServer.exe and got a list of files:
- TheServer.msi
- TheServer.x64.msi
- disk1.cab
- few other files
5. Using the old and new MSI files we successfully created our 32-bit and 64-bit patch files.
6. When we try to install any of our patch files, it fails to be installed due to an error message saying "disk1.cab is missing" from the PC. Obviously there is no disk1.cab, since the old product used a .CAB file called TheServer1.cab.
Could you please advise us something how to solve this situation?
Best regards,
Zsolt
