VersionNT64 isn't a boolean. The property stores the version of the OS. If the different libraries you are installing are all compiled as 32 bit, you can use one installation. If one set of libraries is compiled as 64 bit, you'll have to create two installations from the same project. And yes, the IS articles about 64 bit installations could definitely be better organized and more complete.

Within the same installation project, you can use different Product Configurations along with Release Flags to install different components on 32-bit and 64-bit computers. Look through the help files. Start with the "Targeting 64-bit Operating Systems" topic under "Installshield 2012| Target System Requirements". At the end of this topic, there are tips for doing exactly what you want.

I was trying to get log file info from the 32-bit install, and I had used an incorrect command line parameter (/lv). I tried a couple of things and this is what I've gotten: 1.) If I run the 32-bit install from the Command Prompt with /verbose"...\RVInstall.log", the installation runs fine and I get a verbose log file (attached). 2.) If I set the EXE Command Line for the Install operation of the 32-bit package to /verbose"...\RVInstall.log" then run the suite from the Command Prompt with /verbose"...\RVSuite.log", the suite starts the 32-bit install but exits with an Interrupted message. The RVSuite.log file is created (attached), but no RVInstall.log file is created. So it looks like the 32-bit installation is interrupted before the log file can be created and before any UI can be displayed (?). What does this indicate? What area should I look at now? Thanks, t_mckim

All the installations included in the suite require admin rights. For each package, I had set "Require Elevated Privileges" to Yes. At the Release level, I had also set "Required Execution Level" to Administrator. Is there anything else which needs to be set? t_mckim

I've set up a suite which contains a prerequisite for my product, the 32-bit installation, and the 64-bit installation of my product. When I run the suite, the prerequisite installs silently, no problem. The suite starts the 32-bit install, but the status indicates "setup interrupted" before any of the 32-bit install's UI is even shown. Then the suite aborts with a "setup interrupted" message. Attached is the suite debug log, which indicates "parcel returned error status 80004004". If I simply double-click the setup.exe for the 32-bit install, the installation runs fine. Does anyone know why the suite is behaving this way? Thanks in advance for any info. t_mckim

Aha! I found from another post that I needed to use hive abbreviations such as HKLM instead of the entire hive name for Registry Compare and Registry Exist.

What did you do to resolve the "invalid condition" error, rguggisberg? I am getting the same error no matter how I set up my detection condition. t_mckim
