Hi Rob,

As ales.hrodek said , a solution would be to use a search to identify the name of the instance.
The name of the instance can be identified in the registries from the following path:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Microsoft SQL Server\Instance Names\SQL
The name of the instance will ...

Hi Clive,

Thank you for reporting this issue. In windows 2000 and XP it is a limit of 20 chars. In the future we will mention this limit in help docs. We will not be able to introduce this limit also in UI because the package that you are creating can be installed on other operating systems where ...

Hi Shashank,

I tested using your aip project file in a virtual machine with SQL Server 2008 Express R2 and Advanced Installer 9.4.
I deduced the scheme of tables Cfp_Calcs, CFPAmount_detail and PayrollMonthlyDetail from the sql scripts that you provided and I created them before installing the ...

Hi Simon,

You could just look for the path directly from the SQL Server Registry location:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Microsoft SQL Server\100\Tools\ClientSetup\path
Please note, this path is not the same for each SQL Server.
To achieve this with AdvancedInstaller go to Search Page and ...

Hi Simon,

Can you please tell me how exactly did you install the database? Did you create the database by executing a SQL Script or copy all file types of database?

Hi and welcome to Advanced Installer forums,

You can use a "Launch File or Open URL" predefined custom action. Go to Custom Action Page and add "Launch File or Open URL" as a custom action with sequence. Change the Command field with your URL from Custom Action Properties and make sure you have ...

Hi Simon,

A solution could be to condition SQL scripts (which contains dropping database script from an instance of SQL Server) execution at uninstall.
This condition can consist of a public property which is associated with an UI control( e.g. CheckBox ). In this way the scripts will be executed ...

Hi Simon,

You can create custom action that runs during uninstall.
That custom action would launch a command line sql tool that would remove the named instance.
Please refer to sql server's documentation on how to remove a named instance through the command line.

Hi,

I cannot reproduce this case. I created an exe package with AdvancedInstaller version 9.4 and I downloaded from an URL using Google Chrome 21.0.1180.75 m.
Can you please tell me the versions of AdvancedInstaller and Google Chrome used?

Hi,

If you want to prevent your application from running you can use one of the predefined custom actions: Close application (This custom action allows you to close an application which uses a user Interface.) or Terminate process (This custom action allows you to stop a running process on the ...

Hi,

Instead of creating and populating a database from a batch file I recommend you to use our SQl Scripts feature which is more comfortable to use.
You can read our tutorial about how to configure a SQL Connection and add sql script files in your installer package .
Since you are new, I highly ...

Hi,

If you don't want to appear Apache or MySQL on Control Panel, a solution is to add them as pre-installed in the installer package from Files and Folders page .
Using this method, you must manually register and launch Apache and MySQL Service by adding command lines into bat file and launch ...

Hi Yogesh,

I'm not sure why this happens, it could be caused by Statement separator (SQL Batch file separator) defined in SQL Script page (on the sql script file properties).
Please note, we don't have support for multiple separators (at once) between SQL statements.

Hi,

Unfortunately, we don't have native support for PHP like asp.net.
You can install your PHP application using some methods:
A easy way is to use a WAMP package (contains Apache2, PHP, MySQL) to install all you need to run your PHP application. You can add WAMP packages as a prerequisite in ...
