Appliction Error once Installation is completed.

by scmgalaxy KGeneralLeave a Comment on Appliction Error once Installation is completed.

installanywhereExpert created the topic: Appliction Error once Installation is completed.
We have Installer created in Wise Script.
Once the installer is over then it gives application error i.e Setup.exe stopped working.
I checked the event viewer it say it is an application error and contens of log are following:

Faulting application Setup.exe, version 1.0.0.0, faulting module ntdll.dll, version 5.1.2600.5755, fault address 0x00010a19.

It is only giving error when i am executing some SQL Scripts once database of application is attached.
I am using Wise Installation System 9.0 , Windows XP SP3 and SQL Express 2005.
Does any one can point me what could be the cause of the error?

Memory leak or stack fault

It looks like the execution of the SQL scripts is not completing “cleanly” and is leaving stuff in heap space or the stack which is then causing ntdll.dll in the windows operating system to throw an error.

My suggestion would be to test with a wisescript that only runs your SQL scripts and see if the same error occurs (ie remove any other installation content). If you still get the same error, then try and establish exactly which script is causing the issue.

In the SQL scripts, make sure you close any open handles and drop any variables you use – in other words, make sure you tidy up each SQL script before returning control to the wisescript.

Passing installation parameter to exe

by scmgalaxy KGeneralLeave a Comment on Passing installation parameter to exe

InstallerGeek created the topic: Passing installation parameter to exe
Hi,

Here is the relevant lines from the wxs file:



How do I pass installtion parameters to preagent.exe?

For example “preagent.exe -d d:\tmp”

applicationPackaging replied the topic: Re: Passing installation parameter to exe
Preagent.exe is a file you are installing, using for configuration, or both?
You need to call it with those parameters as the installing user or elevated? It needs to be visible to the user when it runs or not? It should have those parameters every time it runs or just once? Can you do the same thing to the OS that it does with those parameters without running it?

InstallerGeek replied the topic: Re: Passing installation parameter to exe
1. Preagent.exe is an instalation file of Novell ZenWorks agent.
2. I need to call it with parameters as the installing user(the system account in this case).
3. It will run unatennded, enforced by a machine GPO.
4. It should have those parameters every time it runs.

“Can you do the same thing to the OS that it does with those parameters without running it?”
Sorry, I didn’t understand this question..

applicationPackaging replied the topic: Re: Passing installation parameter to exe
The second questions asks if you can set registry values/write file changes/whatever else that running the preagent.exe would have done for you to avoid using it.

Is preagent.exe needed by your installation after it is complete or only when installing, repairing, upgrading, and possibly removing the product?

InstallerGeek replied the topic: Re: Passing installation parameter to exe
1. Yes I can, but I don’t want to do it maually on every workstation.
2.Only for installing.

Creator 2009 > Installation/Uninstallation/Update

by scmgalaxy KGeneralLeave a Comment on Creator 2009 > Installation/Uninstallation/Update

InstallerExpert created the topic: Creator 2009 > Installation/Uninstallation/Update
I am a new user of Roxio products…

I am trying to install Roxio Creator 2009 on Windows XP. It displays and error “0012” at about 3/4 of the way through the install.
I have tried installing many times – all with the same result.

I have searched the KB and done the following per the instructions I found there:
– copied the CD/DVD to my hard drive (ALL files)
– run the Microsoft Installer Cleanup Utility
– cleared the registry settings manually

I still get the same error.

I am amazed at the apparent complexity of this install (take a look at the other posts on this forum). I work for a software company and I am quite comfortable with using a PC – so please spare us both and pause to think before posting any unhelpful comments.

msiexpert replied the topic: Re: Creator 2009 > Installation/Uninstallation/Update
Ok lets try this :

1. Confirm your date and time are in sync.
2. Try creating a new user account with admin rights
3. Copy the contents of the installation DVD to hdd say desktop in a folder
4. Temp disable AV and anything else that might interfere.
5. Try running setup.exe using the file in the folder copied from installation disc.

Windows Installer Rollback Installation

by scmgalaxy KGeneralLeave a Comment on Windows Installer Rollback Installation

rajeshkumar created the topic: Windows Installer Rollback Installation
When the Windows® Installer processes the installation script for the installation of a product or application, it simultaneously generates a rollback script and saves a copy of every file deleted during the installation. These files are kept in a hidden system directory and are automatically deleted once the installation is successfully completed. If however the installation is unsuccessful, the installer automatically performs a rollback installation that returns the system to its original state.’

Automatic rollback of an unsuccessful installation is the default behavior of the installer. To disable rollback during an installation use one of the following:
• DISABLEROLLBACK Property
• PROMPTROLLBACKCOST Property
• DisableRollback Action
• DisableRollback
• EnableRollback ControlEvent

Whenever rollback is disabled, the installer sets the RollbackDisabled property.
If an installation uses custom actions, additional authoring of the installation package is required to use rollback functionality.

Rajesh Kumar

Installation Development Challenges

by scmgalaxy KGeneralLeave a Comment on Installation Development Challenges

andrewmnn created the topic: Installation Development Challenges
“The creation of the installation for an application is normally left to the last minute just before the product has to ship. This is because setup is not considered part of the development process.” (Bob Baker, Windows Installer Developer’s Guide)

Do you feel the same? Do you encounter the same things? Personally, I do, but I am looking for more people who experience the same things, to learn and share ways to handle this…

I will also be sending updates via my twitter account at:
twitter.com/andrewmnn

Feel free ask anything, so we can grow the community of installer developers or IT who want to make a difference.

Sincerely,
Andy.

pgadmin replied the topic: Re: Installation Development Challenges
Stop posting promotional Post.

andrewmnn replied the topic: Re: Installation Development Challenges
my apologies if it sounded like such, it is not for promotional purposes, I really am looking for information from setup developers (MSI in this case) on whether they feel the same, what they do about it, etc. I have the same issues and I think that with enough information, we can tackle this.

Vagrant installation in Windows
In this tutorial, we will be installing Vagrant, a bare bones server with Ubuntu installed. Vagrant is a server that runs under VirtualBox. You will need to have VirtualBox installed. You will also need to have Putty installed in order to access your new Vagrant server via SSH. These instructions also apply to Windows 8.
Requirements:
A hard connection to the Internet
Putty needs to be installed. (putty-0.62-installer.exe)
VirtualBox needs to be installed.
Recommended: 8 GB RAM is recommended to run VirtualBox on Windows PCs
A. Installing Vagrant – bare bones server – Ubuntu only
1. Download and install the most recent VirtualBox for Windows from https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Downloads
Start up VirtualBox
2. Download and install the latest version of Vagrant from http://downloads.vagrantup.com. For this tutorial, we will use version 1.0.6. Windows users, download Vagrant.msi
Open Windows cmd prompt
For Windows 8, press Windows key and then press “R” key. This will open the RUN dialog box for you. Type “cmd” and press Enter.
Note: I typed vagrant command and I got the error message saying, ‘vagrant’ command not recognized. It was not added to the Path during install. Restarting your computer may help to refresh the path.
3. Change directory to C:\vagrant\vagrant\bin
4. Then type the following commands:
C:\vagrant\vagrant\bin> vagrant box add lucid32 http://files.vagrantup.com/lucid32.box
C:\vagrant\vagrant\bin> vagrant init lucid32
C:\vagrant\vagrant\bin> vagrant up
5. Open Putty and enter these credentials:
Hostname: 127.0.0.1
Port: 2222
Connection type: SSH
6. Login to Vagrant server
Enter username: vagrant
Password: vagrant
Type ls –lah at the prompt.
This is a bare bones server with Ubuntu installed.
vagrant@lucid32:~$ls -lah
