I have this in my verbose Log:
MSI (s) (0C:C8) [14:02:53:830]: Executing op:
ActionStart(Name=WriteEnvironmentStrings,Description=Updating environment
strings,Template=Name: [1], Value: [2], Action [3])
MSI (s) (0C:C8) [14:02:53:830]: Executing op:
ProgressTotal(Total=1,Type=1,ByteEquivalent=13200)
MSI (s) (0C:C8) [14:02:53:840]: Executing op:
UpdateEnvironmentStrings(Name=PATH,Value=C:\Program Files\Dyalog\Dyalog APL
11.0\,Delimiter=;,Action=-1610612735,)
which looks OK to me, but when I do "echo %PATH%" I only have:
C:\WINDOWS\system32;C:\WINDOWS;C:\WINDOWS\system32\Wbem;c:\Program
Files\Microsoft SQL Server\90\Tools\binn
so it doesn't appear to have added mine to the list.
when you say "I think you should have this <Environment> tag associated with
the
component containing the .EXE you want to have in the path and not in
its own component."
I'm not sure I follow, am I right in guessing the section:
<DirectoryRef Id="INSTALLDIR">
<Component Id="dyalog.exe"
Guid="4782648F-F51D-4A46-B3B4-FD738C40E8FB">
<File Id="dyalog.exe" Name="dyalog.exe" DiskId="1" KeyPath="yes"
Source="C:\Documents and Settings\jason\Desktop\newtake\intel\dyalog.exe" />
</Component>
</DirectoryRef>
I should have the ENVIRONMENT tag within this component tag?
