Am using BASIC MSI type of install in InstallShield 2008 Professional.
ISSUE # 1 I am not able to find "Microsoft .Net Framework 2.0 Restributable (x86)" under the "Redistributables" view.
How to include this ? Or Is there any ".prq" files that can be directly copied to the "SetupPrerequisites" folder.
ISSUE # 2 I was searching for .prq files, but i found "Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5 SP1.prq" file... which is for .net3.5 framework... I copied the same here in the "SetupPrerequisites" folder, but that is not comming in the "Redistributables" view. ... Is there specific way to include this in "Redistributables" view. ?
Any help in this regard will be highly appreciated.
Weird, you may want to try uninstalling and reinstalling InstallShield, as you should get these automatically. Can you view the 2.0 redistributable when you open the pre-requisite editor?
Default location for pre-reqs as far as I know is [ProgramFilesFolder]Macrovision\IS2008\SetupPrerequisites
You're saying the 2.0 pre-reqs don't exist in the folder above?
Please see the following help topic: Adding .NET Framework Redistributables to Projects (The newer versions of the .NET Framework are available in the Redistributables view. Older versions are available on the .NET/J# tab in the Releases view.)
