Hi there, I have a setup with several feature and some of them installs Windows Services and other installs web sites. Using the original CustomSetup, when selecting a feature that installs a web site, a "Install to" location appears (normally poiting to c:\inetput\wwwroot). I need to use MsiSelectionTreeSelectedFeature to get the selected feature in the SelectionTree so that I can hide that location textbox. I've tried to use subscriptions, conditions and other means but I was unable to achieve the behaviour I need 😞 However, on the logs I see that the property is set everytime I select a different feature. What can be my mistake? Thanks ... View more

Hi guys, I've created an InstallShield setup with several features. In "Internet Information Services" I've added a site called "Default Web Site" (because, for now, I want to install my application in the IIS default web site) which has the following properties: Component: WebSiteComponent Delete on Uninstall: Yes Content Source Path = [IISROOTFOLDER] I've added a Application to that site. When installing, the Application is created, the files are copied and everything is working. MSI (s) (54:08) [08:27:07:820]: Component: WebsiteComponent; Installed: Absent; Request: Local; Action: Local Action 08:27:11: Progress Custom Action. Creating IIS website Default Web Site (...)

Hi, I have another problem. This is the scenario: - My ProductVersion is 1.0.0.0 - It installs several files each with version 1.0.0.0 The QA guy of the company (or the client) installs version 1.0.0.0 and detects a bug on the software. We fix the assemblies but they don't get a new version, that is, they continue with version 1.0.0.0. I build a new setup (with the save ProductVersion). When installing it detects a minor upgrade and asks if the user wants to upgrade. What happens is that those assemblies don't get updated. I've set the "Always overwrite" flag in all assemblies. What am I doing wrong? Thanks ... View more

Hi guys, I'm stucked and I'm sure that the problem is somewhere between the chair and the keyboard. I'm executing MSBuild in the following way: C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v4.0.30319>msbuild "D:\XPTO\Solution.sln" /p:Configuration="Release" /p:Platform="Mixed Platforms" /p:ProductVersion="5.0.0.0" This executes correctly but when I install the setup the version is not 5.0.0.0. What am I doing wrong? EDIT: I replaced "ProductVersion" by InstallShieldProductVersion and it works... Is this the correct way? ... View more

Hi there, I'm developing a Basic MSI installation. I need to change the ProductName after the user introduces the "installation name". That new ProductName should appear in Add/Remove Programs and on the dialogs during the installation. I've made a InstallScript that calls MsiSetProperty and I can see on the logs: Action start 15:29:46: NewCustomAction2. (...) MSI (c) (E0!AC) [15:29:49:095]: PROPERTY CHANGE: Modifying ProductName property. Its current value is 'MyProduct'. Its new value: 'aaaa'. Action ended 15:29:49: NewCustomAction2. Return value 1. Which seems fine, to me. However, on the end of the log, I still have: Property(S): ProductName = MyProduct I think that difference is on (c) and (s). As far as I could investigate the 'c' stands for client process and 's' for server process. So, any hint on how to accomplish this? Thanks ... View more
