I have an InstallScript MSI project. I get the following error trying to compile: Intel64 or AMD64 must be specified in the template of the Summary Stream. I put Intel64;1033 in the Summary Stream then ran my install. I got an error because the system I am running the install on is NOT a 64 bit system. I've looked at other posts and have checked all the redistributables included in my project and do not see any that are set for a 64-bit system. I checked the Conditions on the prerequisites and removed any conditions that specified a 64-bit system. Here are the redistributables that I have included in my project: Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0 SP1 (IS Prerequisite) Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5 SP1 (IS Prerequisite) Microsoft C Runtime Library 6.0 (merge module) Microsoft C++ Runtime Library 6.0 (merge module) Microsoft C++ Runtime Library I/O 6.0 (merge module) Microsoft Data Access Components (MDAC) 2.8 (IS Prerequisite) Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Express SP2 (IS Prerequisite) Any ideas why I keep getting this error? :confused: Thanks, Sel ...

I have created an InstallScript MSI project in order to include SQL Server 2005 Express in the installation. I also need to include MDAC 2.8. I have that in another project (InstallScript project) but can not seem to get it to appear in the list of objects to select inmy InstallScript MSI project. The object is in the ObjectsPro folder under Program Files\InstallShield\2009. I added that path to the Tools--Options--Merge Modules tab Merge Module Locations (for both current user and all users). I closed InstallShield and relaunched it but still do not see MDAC 2.8 in the list to add to my project. Also I need to include .NET Framework 1.1 for one component. I can do that in an InstallScript project but don't see that in the objects list of my InstallScript MSI project. Thank you. :confused: ... View more

I have an InstallShield 2009 InstallScript project. I have the following code to launch an external .msi program. It does not work. When I call GetLastError it returns 0. When I run the szProgram line ( msiexe /a "c:\temp\setup.msi" )in a command window it works fine. I've tried it with the LongPathToQuote line and without it - same result. strDir = "C:\\temp"; szProgram = "msiexe /a \''" + strDir + "\\setup.msi\""; LongPathToQuote(szProgram, TRUE); if(LaunchAppAndWait(szProgram, "", LAAW_OPTION_USE_SHELLEXECUTE | nWait) < 0) then nErrorCode = GetLastError(); NumToStr(strError, nErrorCode); MessageBox(strError, WARNING); else MessageBoxs("success", OK); endif; Any ideas why this doesn't work from within an InstallScript project? Thanks. :confused: ... View more

I want to dynamically hide/show (visible = true or false) a bitmap control that is on a user-defined dialog. It is not the bitmap that appears in the top panel on the right. I change that using DialogSetInfo. Is there a way to hide/show a bitmap (or say a text box) control programmatically? I need this ability in an InstallScript project. I tried ENABLE/DISABLE with the control ID but this gave me an error. Thanks! Sel ... View more

Hello, I have an InstallScript project that had the Windows Installer 3.x Enginer object. I opened the project today and it "is missing". I reran the InstallShieldInstallScriptObjects.exe and made sure the Windows3.x Engine was selected but the object is still missing in my project. Any ideas? This project has been working fine and the windows installer engine has been in it until now. Thank you. 😞 ... View more

I have still not figured out how to get a custom dialog to match a standard dialog. I posted the question first on 01-08-2009, 11:43 AM and added a screen shot on a subsequent post. I'm still looking for help on this if anyone has any ideas. Thank you. 😞 ... View more
