Compressed: Installer running Twice

[wheelswiemann]

For some reason when I try to run my installer from a compressed release - it seems to launch twice...

I do install two prerequisites during the install - currently I have them set as Feature Prerequisites... (SQL Server, and .NET 3.5 SP1)

Below is what happens:
------------------------------

I get the standard extraction dialog
then it goes into the setup

once I get to where it is going to execute the actual execute sequence

I get another extraction dialog...
and that runs through then I get my reboot dialog with the yes/no

if I say no then the original installation file continues after that normally -- I assume performing the execute sequence yet again...


Any ideas???

I can give more info... thanks

I had a similar problem using Feature Prereqs and Release Flags for them.

Am I right to assume that you never found an answer - since you didn't offer one here 🙂

Currently I am to busy with other stuff so I did not spent more time on this issue. But MichaelU gives a hint, you might want to take a look at his post at:
