VB Script Error.

[oggieone]

Can someone please help me with this VB script please?
I am trying to run it as a custom action.

'************************************************
Option Explicit

Dim WshShell

Set WshShell = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell")

WshShell.Run "InstallMySQL.bat", 0, True


'*** End

It doesn't work from in the installer but works outside of the installer.
Can someone please tell me what I am doing wrong?

Thanks!

Why not simply use a "Launch File..." custom action to run the .bat file?

Hi,

Note that the installer runs script Custom Actions directly and does not use the Windows Script Host. Therefore, the WScript object cannot be used inside a script Custom Action because this object is provided by the Windows Script Host.

Please try this:

Code: Select all

Option Explicit
Dim WshShell
Set WshShell = CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
WshShell.Run "InstallMySQL.bat", 0, True

Regards,
Cosmin
