问题 Our app uses a component that requires a license file in the directory with our executable, which happens to be a .NET WinForms app though I think it is immaterial to this question. When installed on some XP Pro machines (just three out of several hundred thus far), the component throws a license exception. So I regenerated the license file and sent it to the component vendor (EMC Captiva), where the vendor claims the error is due to the fact that the "Users" group has no read permissions on

问题 I am seeing an unusual sporadic failure of one of our patches at several customer sites. The final error code is 1648 (No valid sequence could be found for the set of patches), which is occurring because error 2219 (Invalid Installer database format) occurs when attempting to read the summary information stream from one of the patch transforms. But I suspect this is only a side effect of an earlier silent error. Our patches all use the MinorUpdateTargetRTM property so there is really nothing

问题 I would like to create an installer of my program. However because the installation is quite complicated, I need something more advanced than installshield limited edition. I have to run another installer from my current one. It doesn't matter if the user press "cancel" or installs the program, I just need to run it. I have to install a directory structure on user computer which has a lot of files, that's why i'm going mad with wix: 100 files and I should write all of them with my hands in

问题 When installing a .MSI file using msiexec in silent mode, is it possible to automate it such that on installation failure it rollbacks to the previous version? Assuming that on installation an older application version is already installed. 回答1: Yes, restoring the old application version via rollback upon an installation failure is actually a built-in feature of Windows Installer , but you need to configure things correctly to get it to work as you require.

问题 I am using InstallShield 2011. I have a COM object that needs registered during installation. I cant seem to find anywhere where it instructs you on how to do this. Does anyone have any ideas? Thanks EDIT: 回答1: Create a component and add your COM dll/ocx to it and right click it to mark it as key file if needed. Then right click the file and select "Extract COM". You should see a bunch of progress messages as it harvests the various registry entries. Build your installer and test it on a
