ExeCommand="[#python.exe] [#service.pyc] install" />

    Hello,

    If the python.exe file and the service.pyc file are integrated in the Wix 
file, you can use the following code :

    <CustomAction Id="LaunchPythonExe" 
Directory='IdOfTheDirectoryContaintThePythonExe' ExeCommand=' python.exe 
service.pyc intsall' />

    Regards,

    Hi,

     

    i'm trying to call a python script after the install via a custom action

     

    this is the code which i have

     

    <CustomAction Id="setPropertyPythonEXE" Property ="pythonExe" 
Value="[INSTALLDIR]mtm\thirdParty\python2.4\python.exe" />

    <CustomAction 

    Id="invokeInstallService" Property ="pythonExe" 
ExeCommand="[INSTALLDIR]mtm\mtmCore\python\agent\service.pyc install" /> 

     

    however the problem is that the exeCommand is read by python as one long 
file name, so i believe this is being passed to the command line  

    >"c:\Program Files\Abilisoft\mtm\thirdParty\python2.4\python.exe" 
"c:\Program Files\Abilisoft\mtm\mtmCore\python\agent\service.pyc install"

     

    i need the install to be passed after the file name? is there anyway to do 
this?
