ISDEV : fatal error -7159: The product license has expired or has not yet been initialized.

Dear Team,

We are using Installshield(IS) 2013 in our production and now want to upgrade to IS 2018. 

For IS2013 we have old powershell scripts which create MSI packages. 

We have installed IS2018 and activated it with valid license key.  Now we are trying to run the old packaging powershell scripts but we are getting below license error. 

ISDEV : fatal error -7159: The product license has expired or has not yet been initialized.

 

Do we need to perform any extra steps to activate the scripting interface ?

FYI, Manually we are able to create MSI packages. 

Our environment details are:

Installer: AdminStudio2018R4.exe

OS: Windows Server 2016 Standard

Powershell cmd line: 32 bit(ran with admin permissions)

Hi @shreedhar ,

 

Can you check how you are creating the Installshield 2018 project interfaces in the script,  you have to use  "IswiAuto24.ISWiProject" prog ID for InstallShield 2018 project object.

Hi,

 

Yes I faced this issue but later I changed it to "IswiAuto24.ISWiProject". But now If you check the error its related to license. Manually I am able to create MSI package but with scripting its showing error related to license.
