Please Help!! Launching DotNET 3.5.1 install...
I have a basic MSI project... It creates 3 files, the setup.exe, the cab and the MSI file... Setup.exe gets executed...
I want to launch dotnet that is on the same CD... So I created a custom action...
Setup in attachment 1.bmp...
So the installation starts and I get this error...
See attachment 2.bmp...
How can I get this to work... The CD layout will be...
ROOT
...+-----SETUP THAT IS LAUNCHED
...|
...+-----DOT NET INSTALL THAT I WANT TO LAUNCH
TIA

Why dont you call DOTNET35 as a pre-req?
or
if you dont wanna do that then use LaunchAppAndWait for call your Dotnet35.exe.

Well the Pre-req make the installation files too large according to upper management...
As for the LaunchAppAndWait, can that be done with an MSI project?

Yes, you could use LaunchAppAndWait for MSI projects as well.
you just have to prototype the function and then in the body of the fuction you call LaunchAppAndWait, then create a CA for this funciton and call it appropriate sequence...
