Custom action named "Install"

[fd1]

I created a custom action of type "Property Source" under "InstallServices" and renamed it to "Install". Now AI treats it as a Standard Action, the custom action Properties page is gone and I can't delete that thing.
How can I get rid of it?

Hi,

This is a bug and will be fixed ASAP.

To be able to access this property you need to edit the AIP file directly. Open it in any text editor (Notepad will do) and find the section:

Code: Select all

<COMPONENT cid="caphyon.advinst.msicomp.MsiCustActComponent">

Find the line where this CA is defined, a row beginning:

Code: Select all

<ROW Action="Install" Type=...

and change it with:

Code: Select all

<ROW Action="Install2" Type=...

Similarly find the section:

Code: Select all

<COMPONENT cid="caphyon.advinst.msicomp.MsiInstExSeqComponent">

and change

Code: Select all

<ROW Action="Install" Sequence=...

with

Code: Select all

<ROW Action="Install2" Sequence=...

Save the file and then open it in Advanced Installer.

Please let me know if you need further help.

Regards,
Mihai
