Installation of C++ 2017 redistributable(x86) fails
Hi,
I am using visual studio 2017 and I have a project that requires the C++ 2017 redistributables.
When I select this in visual studio it tells me that it is not installed on the local machine. So I have tried two ways to resolve this.
1) I selected download from the web
2) I selected to download from Flexera and I included this in the setup.exe
In both cases, when I try the installation, I receive a message that the installation of C++ 2017 redistributable appears to have failed. If I say continue, the install is fine.
I have tried to setup a install log, but it doesn't work. What would be the shortcut that is needed for logging?
Now, this is a new installation of visual studio(2017) and InstallShiled lite. One of the reasons I went to this from VS2010 is that my users started getting the same errors with the 2010 C++ redistributable.
It would seem that there is a newer version of the 2017 redistributable installed and that is why the version from flexera is failing.
How do I get around this? If the installer finds a newer version it should just say so, or continue without installing.
Thanks for any help.
Tom

Here is some more information.
I tried running my install program on a different computer that never had the c++ 2017 (x86) redistributable installed. During the install of the c++ redistributable, the installation failed yet again. If I then look in Programs and Features, it installed correctly!
So obviously something is not right in installshield.
What can I do about this?

I have found what the issue is.
Installshield lite provides the wrong command line parameters.
Installshield does the following:
vc_redist.x86.exe /q/norestart
Notice that there is NO space between the /q and the /norestart. When this is done, the install is NOT in quiet mode and will fail if the redistributable is installed.
On the other hand doing this as vc_redist.x86.exe /q /norestart (notice the space) it will NOT give an error if the redistributable or a higher version is installed and will not attempt to uninstall it either if it is ionstalled again.
So how does one modify the command line used by InstallShield?
I should point out that this error has been there since VS 2010!

Nope it indeed does install with the required spaces but STILL is not quiet.
