Evaluation Problems or By Design?
Hi,
I'm busy trying out the Installshield 2010 Express Evaluation version. I've put together a basic installation, but am having problems testing it out.
When I run it I get the standard 'Evaluation' message popup which I can dimiss and continue with the installation. However when the installer gets to the point of installing that same message pops up and the following then occurs:
If I dismiss it quickly the installer appears to jump to the end of the installation, but nothing has occurred. If I leave the evaluation message open for a while and then click OK the installation generally hangs and no progress occurs.
Am I meant to be able to properly utilise an installation package created with the trial version?
I'm using Windows 7 Pro 32bit.
Kind regards,
Gary

Hmm. I'm not sure what's happening there. Would you mind trying to launch Setup.exe from the command line and pass the /debuglog parameter to generate a log file? Maybe the log file will help us figure this out.
To generate a log named InstallShield.log in the same directory as the Setup.exe file, pass just the command-line parameter. Note that this does not work if the Setup.exe file is in a read-only location. For example:
To specify the name and location of the log file, pass the path and name, as in the following example:
Thanks!

Does the problem occur if you remove the Microsoft SQL Server 2008 Express SP1 (x86 & x64Wow) for SpaGuru prerequisite from your project?

Hi,
Yes, when I remove my custom prerequisite it works. I based that prerequisite on the Sql Server 2008 one that comes with the trial. I need to install Sql Server 2008 Express with a specific named instance - have I gone about it incorrectly?

If you include the InstallShield built-in prerequisite 'Microsoft SQL Server 2008 Express SP1 (x86 & x64Wow)', instead of your custom prerequisite 'Microsoft SQL Server 2008 Express SP1 (x86 & x64Wow) for SpaGuru', is the problem reproducible?

Are you using the Download From the Web option for the Microsoft SQL Server 2008 Express SP1 (x86 & x64Wow) for SpaGuru.prq? If so, try the Copy From Source Media option, and see if it makes any difference. The "Alternate location to download .prq from" setting still specifies the InstallShield built-in alternate .prq uploaded in Flexera Software's file server.

Hi,
I've specifically left it to use the normal download option as the only difference between your prerequisite and the 'custom' one is that I specify a command line parameter to use to ensure it installs a specific named instance.
Is this not possible? I need to be able to allow for the download from web option.
Kind regards,
Gary

Does the Copy From Source Media option fix your issue? If so, with the Download From The Web option, try removing the AltPrqURL attribute from your .prq and see if it works.

Tried setting it as you suggested, and get the same problem originally experience, entire setup.exe hangs. Have to actually end task it manually to get it to go away.

I am wondering if there is something wrong in your command line options. Please try a very simple one such as /q /ACTION=Install /FEATURES=SQL /INSTANCENAME=SPAGURU, and see if it makes any difference.

Yes, using the simplified commandline worked. Can you try and explain why the full command line does not work? Is it perhaps the "quotes", I took this command line from the Visual Studio SQL Server Express 2008 boot strapper package.
Also, the below is what happens during the install - what exactly does that mean - features do not match?

Also, I'm sure people have asked this before but is it possible to add a condition to the prerequisite to check if a specific named instance exists on the machine?
Thanks for your all your help so far.

Hi,
I've just noticed that my report that the setup was hanging was incorrect, it appears it was downloading the sql prereq in the background and just not displaying any download progress - so it appeared that the setup had hang up.
Is it possible to enable a download progress indicator for prereqs?
Also, when it did start installing it popped up a cmd window as shown in the screenshot - is it possible to disable this?
Regards,
Gary

Sorry for the delay. I guess that you are using a feature prerequisite for the 'Microsoft SQL Server 2008 Express SP1 (x86 & x64Wow) for SpaGuru.prq'. Feature prerequisites are executed by a MSI, not the Setup.exe bootstrapper. Therefore, you have the "Features do not match..." message in your Setup.exe verbose log.
In order to check if a specific named instance exists on the machine, you need to change the PATH attribute of the prerequisite condition like this:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Microsoft SQL Server\SQLEXPRESS\SPAGURU\CurrentVersion
Hope that helps.

It appears that a semi-colon is missing for the "quotes" in your command line. The valid HTML tag is "e; instead of "e.

I filed the work order #IOA-000055546 for the download progress issue so that it will be addressed in a future release. Regarding the cmd window, do you specify the /HIDECONSOLE command line option?

Thanks for all the help. I've got everything working as expected now.
The download progress issue is really a bit of a showstopper though, as here in South Africa our fastest line speed is 4Mbs - which means at least a 15 minute delay during which the installation appears to be doing nothing.
Just to confirm - is this a bug, or a lack of functionality in terms of download progress?
