ExeCommand='"[INSTALLSCRIPTINSTALLDIR]boo\booi.exe"
"[INSTALLSCRIPTINSTALLDIR]install.dir.boo" "[WEBINSTALLDIR]."
"[INSTALLDIR]." "[DIRECTORYNAME]" "[DATABASEPASSWORD]"' />

2007/2/13, nick hemsley <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
I am having a problem calling an external boo script from wix.
Here is the tag
<CustomAction Id="InstallScript" Property="INSTALLSCRIPTRESULT"
ExeCommand='"[INSTALLSCRIPTINSTALLDIR]boo\booi.exe"
"[INSTALLSCRIPTINSTALLDIR]install.dir.boo" "[WEBINSTALLDIR]."
"[INSTALLDIR]." "[DIRECTORYNAME]" "[DATABASEPASSWORD]"' />
If I paste the command text from the log into a command prompt it runs
as expecte. The ExeCommand is quoted using single quotes (as I *think*
i need to use double quotes for paths, i havent tested this though).
Here is the relevant log section:
Error 1721. There is a problem with this Windows Installer package. A
program required for this install to complete could not be run.
