Hi all,

I don't know if my observation matters in this context.

When installing Acrobat 7, I noticed that the next installation on the todo 
list failed. In my case Office2k was to follow the Adobe Reader installation. 
There was an error message from the Windows Installer telling me that there was 
another installation still running. 

It seems to me that the Adobe Reader 7 installation at some point starts a 
secondary process (i.e. Windows Installer). At this point the primary process 
(some unpacking) ends and the todo script continues without waiting for the 
installation to complete.

Depending on what comes next in the todo list, there might appear other 
problems from that (e.g. if the next step is a reboot).

A very dirty solution would be to introduce > todo.pl ".sleep 150" < just above 
the Adobe Reader Installer in the installation script. That would give 2.5 
minutes for the secondary process to complete. 

Any better solutions?

Thomas
