Hello, I have an InstallScript project that was written in InstallShield 12. I've now upgraded the project to 2012 Spring. After I install my product, and restart my machine, I'm getting Error -5001: 0x8000ffff. Searched a lot through the posts..but couldnt solve. Anyone knows how to get rid of this??? Please help!! Thanks much in advance.

You can try adding the program under HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\AppCompatFlags, with RUNASADMIN value, just before launching it with LaunchApp API.

Check for the upgrade code, mentioned in the upgrade table of the project.

Are you trying to launch a program from system folder?

:confused: Hi, My requirement is to have a single msi installer, which will in turn install couple of other msi packages, and VC++ Redistributable, and SQLExpress (both of them are .exes, which later invokes .msi). I've added Msi packages as chained msi, and exe as pre-requisites. but since ive prerequisites, my build output is not an msi, but an exe. If I add the exes to install during custom actions.. I'm not able to do a silent installation of the whole package on Windows 7. It complains of having two exection sequence trying to run in parallel. Is there a way to get out of this situation. Any thought is appreciated... Thanks.

is it not possible to run a suite project in silent mode? I used /s with the suite setup.exe, and installation throwed a warning saying the commandline is not supported.

Even I had the same issue, and used the same approach mentioned in your post, for getting rid of the errors. I wonder what's the issue in self-registering from the IDE.

Are you trying to build a release which is already created? In that case, use -r to specify the release name. Do not use -c.

Use Enable(STATUSEX) before starting the file copy.

You can display a drop down box for allowing user to select the required drive for installation. After you take the drive info from the user, you can append it with your required folder structure to form your installdir. You can check help on creating combobox for the purpose.

Did you get the return value of FeatureSetTarget()? What does that say?

Try disabling it at the beginning of OnFirstUIAfter() function ( or the function which you are using in it's place).

To remove InstallShield text from the dialog title, go to Direct Editor -> Dialog. There you can change the title for every dialog that you are using. I guess you'll have to customize your dialog skin for removing InstallShield from the bottom of the dialog.

Great! Hotfix 52410 solved my issue 🙂
