Error while CustomAction in MergeModule

[MartinFH]

Hey,

in my maininstallerscript i've got two entries in the "organization tab"

1. Client
2. Server

The "Server" entrie includes only one mergemodule, the mergemodule is installed under the "Application Folder" (AppDir).

The mergemodule includes following structure:
- Application Folder
-> Normal Folder named "Control"
-> "programm.exe"

"Programm.exe" is an ActiveX Server Component. So to register the exe i included a custom action under:
"InstallExecuteSequence -> Install"

Now i set following settings:

Source Path: APPDIR\Control\programm.exe
Source Type: Executable
Command Line: /RegServer

Execution Properties: Synchronous exectuion, check return code
Execution Options: Deffered

Scheduling Options: Always Execute
Execution Condition: NOT Installed

When the installer runs and i activate the module "Server" it copies the programm.exe correctly but it can't register the component, so i get an errorcode 2753.

Any Ideas?

Greetings & Thanks

Martin

Hi Martin,

The error 2753 means: "The File '[2]' is not marked for installation.". Usually it is encountered when a custom action tries to access a file which was not installed by the package. In order to find the problem, please send us the AIPs of the merge module and the main project to support at advancedinstaller dot com. Also, please attach a verbose log of the install which shows this behavior.

Regards,
Cosmin
