Hello everybody, I would greatly appreciate some help.
I am using wix v2 to create an installer, at the moment the installer checks for some prerqusite files using the registry and based on what is found takes the user to one of three new dialogs. At 2 of the dialogs I have a checkbox where the idea is that the user checks the box and hits the finish button to launch a .exe to run appropriate updates. However I have never managed to successfully get the .exe to run. I tested the checkbox with opening Notepad like so: <Property Id='NOTET'>Notepad.exe</Property> <CustomAction Id='LaunchNet' Property='NOTET' ExeCommand='[TARGETDIR]\Program Files\Readme.txt' Return='asyncNoWait' /> <Control Id="Finish" Type="PushButton" X="236" Y="243" Width="56" Height="17" Default="yes" Cancel="no" Text="!(loc.WixUIFinish)"> <Publish Event="EndDialog" Value="Exit">1</Publish> </Control> <Publish Dialog="nwnUpdate" Control="Finish" Order="1" Event="DoAction" Value="LaunchNet">LAUNCHNET = 1</Publish> And everything worked correctly. However when I try to change the custom action to launch the .exe nothing seems to happen, I currently have the following code but I have tried various approaches. <Binary Id="Updater_EXE" SourceFile="C:\Program Files\Atari\Neverwinter Nights 2\nwupdate.exe" /> <CustomAction Id='LaunchUpdate' BinaryKey="Updater_EXE" ExeCommand="" Return="asyncNoWait"/> Just to be clear there is definately a nwupdate.exe in the folder specified above. Can anyone advise me on where I am going wrong Thanks very much in advance! _________________________________________________________________ Windows Live Messenger: Celebrate 10 amazing years with free winks and emoticons. http://clk.atdmt.com/UKM/go/157562755/direct/01/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Let Crystal Reports handle the reporting - Free Crystal Reports 2008 30-Day trial.
