I'm trying to execute a batch file (.bat) that is copied into a predefined location during install. I have the FileKey for the batch file generated by heat.exe. I do not need to pass any parameters to this bat file which contains VBScript code. The important point is that if I just manually execute the bat file (double click) after completing the installation, it works fine. But when I use WIX CustomAction to execute it, it fails. I do not mean the VBScript within fails but the installer itself fails. I'm certain this is not because of the CustomAction Sceduling because the bat file is present in the predefined location by the time the customaction is invoked by the installer. I have tried various methods like FileKey, WIX QuietCustomAction, ExeCommand, VBScriptCall and so on.. Nothing have worked so far. Was wondering if anyone here could help me.
Note: The .bat file is copied to the Install Directory and NOT the System32 folder ----- Thanks, VN -- View this message in context: http://windows-installer-xml-wix-toolset.687559.n2.nabble.com/Executing-a-Batch-File-during-Install-tp6579146p6579146.html Sent from the wix-users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ AppSumo Presents a FREE Video for the SourceForge Community by Eric Ries, the creator of the Lean Startup Methodology on "Lean Startup Secrets Revealed."
