Urgent Help plsss for find setup.exe directory
Hello everyone
Hello everyone
I'm in desperate need for help.
I've got an IS-MSI project with some redistributable installation.
After the installation I need to know the location of the setup.exe file.
Everything worked well before but now that i have inserted SQL among the prerequisites, it needs a restart therefore
the directory found by GetCurrentDir is C:\Windows\System32
What's more PACKAGE_LOCATION is empty...
I tried to put the Get CurrentDir before the prerequisites installation but even in the On Begin prerequisites start first
and this spoils the GetCu rrentDir location
So what can I do to get the setup.exe location?
Thank u in advance for whatever might help me.....

Maybe SRCDIR?

Consider SRCDIR, SourceDir, or SETUPEXEDIR. They each have caveats to consider.
