Please can someone give me some advice on the methods used to launch a batch file using Admin Studio. We have packaged several applications in MSI format and require the following batch file to run after the deplopyment.

 

Sample Batch File to run after visio has been depolyed

 

net localgroup "App Visio 2002" /ADD

 

%systemroot%\system32\xcacls.exe "%systemroot%\NRStart\NR Office Apps\Microsoft Visio 2002.lnk" /t /c /g administrators:f system:f "%computername%\App Visio 2002":r /Y >nul

 

%systemroot%\system32\xcacls.exe "%systemdrive%\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Visio10\Visio.exe" /t /c /g administrators:f system:f "%computername%\App Visio 2002":rx /Y >nul

 

Is this done using custom actions ?

 

Is this done using the installscript language ?

 

Samples of code would be great if anyone has any they can share , we need to run the batch files for both msi/mst and msi packages.

 

Many thanks in advance ...

  • Check out the documentation on LockPermissions. You can also run this through a TRANSFORM if you need to .

     

    In short, find the component for the directories you want to unlock and then set your permissions there. Your can specify a domain and user. If you want to unlock it for everyone Don't speicify a Domain and "Everyone" is the user.

     

    You can run external programs like batch file through custom actions but it will be a nightmare to manage later.
