Hi Jeroen, Thank you for your post. An installer made with InstallAnywhere by Zero G, before the Flexera acquisition, is built with a version of InstallAnywhere that has reached its end-of-life so it is no longer supported. That version of InstallAnywhere also does not support Windows 10. Thanks, Ian

Hi @kirankhot,
Thank you for your post.
On your build machine, which user did you use to register InstallAnywhere as a licensed copy? Which user do you use to build your projects?
If you create a new test project with all default settings, except for building an installer for Linux, and build your project, when you run your installer, does this unlicensed version message display?
Thanks,
Ian

Hi @rajeevshukla,
Thank you for your post.
You would need to place the Set System Environment Variable Action in the Install Sequence, because, as you mentioned, the Action is not available in the Post-Install Sequence.
The action is available in the Install Sequence, at least partly, so that the installer can undo the action if necessary.
Thanks,
Ian

Hi @manishgupta03,
Thank you for your post.
My understanding is that you mentioned that the Host ID in the license file you are using does not match the Host ID displayed in the Registration Wizard. The Host ID is not something that is entered into the Registration Wizard itself. You need to go to the Product and License Center and generate a license file with the correct Host ID, if your current license file has an incorrect Host ID.
Thanks,
Ian

Hi @rajeevshukla,
Thank you for your reply. No, there is currently no built-in functionality for passing a list of ZIP files for the Expand Archive Action to expand. Thanks, Ian

Hi @rajeevshukla,
Thank you for your post. You could try using an Execute Script/Batch file Action to run a 3rd-party command-line ZIP tool, such as the free 7-Zip tool. The ZIP tool would need to support wildcards in the target filename, such as: *.zip You would also need to make sure that the the ZIP tool itself is available at runtime / install-time. Thanks, Ian

Hi Rakesh,
Thank you for your post.
Here is my response to your reply:
Under which directory it looks for the required space ? can we specify the directory also ?
[IAN]: The installer only checks the $USER_INSTALL_DIR$ directory. If you update $USER_INSTALL_DIR$ that would influence which directory the installer checks. The installer checks the given file system, partition, etc. for required and free disk space.
Is there a way to look for disk quota also?
[IAN] No, not currently. We are aware of this issue, but currently there is no support for this.
Thanks,
Ian

Hi @Saniya_Javed & @StaceyTyler,
At least on Windows, an application cannot be running while it is updated. This is because files would be locked and in use by the application's process. You would need to first detect that your application is running then stop the application's process. You would first need to programmatically do that from a Windows command prompt. After you get that working from a command prompt, you could try using an Execute Script/Batch file Action to incorporate the functionality in your installer.
Thanks,
Ian
