:confused: I purchased The "Repackaging and Application Migration using AdminStudio" course. The course came with a disk containing sample projects (exercises). I have been trying to work with the "Sample App 3000" ism file. I ran the "Full MSI Validation Suite" under the Build > Validate menu as the course instructs to do. I receive the following error:
The directory SAMPLE_APP1 is in the user profile but is not listed in the RemoveFile table.
http://dartools/iceman/ice64.html Directory Directory SAMPLE_APP1 Error Code: ICE64
When I double click the error I am taken to the Direct Editor "Directory" table. Highlighted in "red" is the following information. There are other columns but those are blank so I didn't include them here.
Directory - (s72) = SAMPLE_APP1
Directory_Parent -(S72) = PersonalFolder
DefaultDir -(l255) = SAMPLE~1|Sample App
ISAttributes -(14) = 0
The data above is actually formatted in Rows and Columns in the editor but because the formatting doesn’t hold up in a simple text editor I rearranged it into a simple list
When I navigate to the RemoveFiles table I see this:
Once again these are actually column headings
FileKey -(s72)
Component_-(S72)
FileName -(L255)
DirProperty - (S72)
InstallMode - (i2)
It is my understanding that if I want to remove a folder I should leave the file columns blank. When I click on the Component column I get a drop down menu so I must choose one of the predefined properties. None of the properties I can choose from correspond to what I'm seeing in the "Directory" table.
Its also my understanding that if I want the file removed during an uninstall I need to set the InstallMode = 2.
No matter what I put in the columns under the RemoveFile table I keep getting the same "The directory SAMPLE_APP1 is in the user profile but is not listed in the RemoveFile table.
http://dartools/iceman/ice64.html Directory Directory SAMPLE_APP1 Error Code ICE64" error.
How can I translate what I'm seeing in the "Directory" table into valid entries in the RemoveFile table? Is there a guide or a utility that can translate this information for me? I know it's just a sample exercise but if I can't get it right here I won't be able to get it right when I really need to.
Thank You
