Hi Rob,
Is the user group is still there?. I was wondering why nobody is replying.
This was my question ans I am trying hard to create a simple shortcut for
net.exe.
When I start from the cmd prompt the service runs. However, It is not working.
I also tried to create a custom action like the following and it still it did
not showing up.
I am describinfg two methods here. Both methods are not working. What should I
do to create a short cut for an existing file which is already presnt in the
windows/system32 directory?.
1) I am trying to create a shortcut for an existing file"net.exe" in the
Windows/system32 directory. I am not packaging this file with the install
shield. I want just use this file to run Tomcat. I am using the following code.
This looks like simple, however when I run the install shield, it does not
create a short cut at all. I tried by creating a custom action and try to use
the peroprty in the shortcut. I donot know what I am doing wrong. Please look
at this tag and see, if I am doing anything wrong here.
<Component Id="comcat" DiskId="1" Guid="7C170F2C-67F9-4f31-AE7D-134451321BE6">
<Shortcut Id="Tomcat" Name="StartTC" Directory="ProgramMenuFolder"
Arguments="start TEAMSRDS" LongName="1.Start Jakarta-Tomcat Server - Service
Mode"
WorkingDirectory="directory3" Target="C:\WINDOWS\system32\net.exe" />
</Component>
Directory3 is where my tomcat is installed
I called the service as RDS.
2) <Shortcut Id="Tomcat" Name="StartTC" Target="[RUNNET]"
Directory="wixs1" Arguments="start TEAMSRDS"
WorkingDirectory="myvalue" />
<CustomAction Id="RNet" Property="RUNNET"
ExeCommand="C:\WINDOWS\system32\net.exe"/>
Thanks for any help in adavance.
Venkat
