Thanks for the suggestion. That did allow the install to complete but it only seemed to work with one argument. When I tried two, it still failed. So that was the good news. Then the LibreOffice does not seem to reliably honor the argument anyway so all this is a bit academic at the moment.

We are trying to install LibreOffice as a prerequisite. If only a URL is specified, it works. If in addition I try to specify the command line such as:

msiexec /i LibreOffice_25.2.7.2_Win_x86-64.msi

on the Command line (Full UI) line, the msiexec installer just shows it's allowed call arguments ...

We have a situation where the unsigned .exe file works properly but after being signed with a certificate by the installer and then installed on a system, the program fails in moderately strange ways. As this program seems very well behaved prior to being put in an install package, it is not at all ...

We are generating a ini file and the intention is to only generate values for items that were not present but leave existing items alone. We are using the option "Create only if it does not exist" as seen in the attachemet "capture.PNG". In practice. all program updates completely replace all ...

I can try copying the file with multiple names but the point is that for this file, there is no translation and we want the English version to show in all languages.

We are trying to get the readme and license agreement show in all languages. At the present time only English shows. In other languages, it looks like it is saying that the file is missing.

We created a dictionary according to the instructions and even tried to include the full name of the ID for ...

Thanks, I think I have the idea. Will try it tomorrow.

We have a program which normally installs from the files included in the installer .exe. The desire is to allow the "Custom" setup to additionally install another package which is available online at:

We have a visual studio project built in the 2015 community addition using c++. It runs as a windows application on the machine it was built on. Trying to make an installer with version 12.6.1 we used new->installer=>visual studio application. Then after giving it the path to the solution file it ...

It seems that I did not get a notification of your post.
These does not appear to be any check box "Sign the package using". I have attached the digital signature page for this project. Is this in some other form which I have missed?

The interesting part is that on other projects which don't even ...

We are using version 12.6.1 to generate an installation. The installed program generates a "User Account Control" message on some computers (especially windows 7)". The message is attached. We have a digital signature from COMODO. What else is required?

mhubel

Is it possible to have the installer generate an entry in a .ini file with no key, only a value? We want the resulting .ini file to effectively look like:

[Directories]
c:\nm\archive

where c:\nm\ would be replaced in the properties with [APPDIR]

mhubel

That did seem to fix it. I would have thought the check box:

"Use 64-bit locations when evaluating conditions on a 64-bit machine"

would do exactly the opposite and only use the Wow6432Node node when checked.

With an installation with multiple prerequisites, the test is version number and a registry entry. One of the prerequisites works properly and does not attempt to re-install, the other works on some machines but not others. In all cases a manual look with regedit shows the required entry but the ...

We have a 32 bit application which requires a Java install. The application works properly with either a 32 or 64 bit Java installation. In the prerequisites Java is checked as required. This works properly if the target has a 32 bit Java installed. If there is a 64 bit Java installed, the installer ...
