How to build Single MSI using VS2012 and Installshield LE
No matter what I try, when I build my setup project, it always only builds the DVD-5 media. I really what to package the installer as a single MSI file. The included help file says that I can right-click on the media I was and choose Build from the context menu. However, in VS2012, there is NO CONTEXT MENU when you right-click on the meda in the Build explorer.
I there any way to get the LE version to build a single media file?
I could not find a way to get a single MSI file, but I found out how to get a single EXE file You have to set the SingleImage to Compressed.
To change the media type, you have to go into the Configuration Manager on the Build menu in Visual Studio and change the media type for the Setup project. Also, the fact that the documentation STILL says to right-click on the media and select build was report over SEVEN YEARS AGO. Looks like they are NEVER going to fix the docs.
Neverimind. I guess someone decided to create a separate sub-forum for the LE edition and moved my threads to it. I searched for this sub-forum and could not find it.
Anyway, the solution to the single MSI issue is documented here:
