Hello, Project: Basic MSI I would like to have a Setup.exe and Foo.msi on the media file system and I would like to have the installation files got compressed into the MSI file. I do not see the way to achieve that in InstallShield. If I select Compression: Compressed Setup Launcher: Yes I got files compressed but also msi file itself got compressed into Setup.exe If I select Compresseion: Uncompressed Setup Launcher: Yes Then I got Setup.exe and Foo.msi but the installation files are not compressed. Once again, my goal is to have both Setup.exe and Foo.msi on the media file system and the actual installation files got compressed into Foo.msi. Any help would be appreciated. Regards! ...

Hello, Project type: Basic MSI Compression: Uncompressed Is there a way to put Foo.exe in a different directory than related Setup.exe in the Basic MSI project? I would like to achieve following media file system structure: -CD -----Setup.exe -----Packages ----------Foo --------------Foo.msi ----------Boo --------------Boo.msi Where Foo is my main project and Boo is chained MSI. Boo is not a problem, however it seems that msi must be located in the same directory where Setup.exe is located. Is there a way to override this setting? Regards! ... View more

Hello, I installed Standalone build 2010 on the windows 2008 x64. WHen i tried to run msbuild task I got following error message: error MSB4062: The "InstallShield.Tasks.InstallShield" task could not be loaded from the assembly C:\Program Files (x86)\MSBuild\InstallShield\2010\InstallShield.Tasks.dll. Could not load file or assembly 'file:///C:\Program Files (x86)\MSBuild\InstallShield\2010\InstallShield.Tasks.dll' or one of its dependencies. An attempt was made to load a program with an incorrect format. Confirm that the declaration is correct, and that the assembly and all its dependencies are available. Bold part indicates that there is a platform mismatch. So my question is: Simlar problem on the MSBuild forum http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/msbuild/thread/08c1b976-e741-4ea3-91f6-1ae0958f1667 Indeed, if I use x86 version of msbuild then standalone builder will work, but i do not want to do that. Is there a x64 version of Standalone builder? and if not, how can i workaround this issue? Any help would be appreciated. Regards! ... View more

Hello, I have several files with the same name in my application. Of course they are located in the different folder. Is there a way to exclude one file (eg A.txt) and keep remaining files (also A.txt) from the dynamic linked folder? Or maybe there is a way to pass location of the file into the pattern? To summarize: -Root -FolderA -A.txt -B.txt -C.txt -FolderB -A.txt -D.txt -E.txt I liked Root folder and I would like to exclude A.txt from the FolderA and keep A.txt from the FolderB. I know I could create 2 dynamic links (one for FOdlerA and one for FolderB) and only exclude the one from the FolderA but in reality there might be hundrets of folders out there. Regards! ...
