I am pulling my hair out at the moment. This is actually linked to another post I have but wasn't sure who gets visibility of what so apologies for duplication.
I am trying to build a wix installer step by step and am struggling at the first step. What I want to do is to install a perl script, then after install execute the perl script. This is not currently working but why I do not know. As a test I also included an exe file in the install. If I change the filekey to the exe then this runs okay, if I change back to the perl script it does not appear to work. All the perl file is generate a file in the root of c directory. What am I doing wrong, can CustomAction not be used with scripts? I've enclosed the wix file and the perl script and the build command (nothing clever in them at all) http://www.nabble.com/file/6698/SampleFirst.wxs SampleFirst.wxs http://www.nabble.com/file/6699/first.pl first.pl http://www.nabble.com/file/6700/dash.bat dash.bat -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Getting-a-scrtip-to-run-as-a-custom-action-tf3272520.html#a9099112 Sent from the wix-users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
