Thanks for the reply.
Now somehow I am able to suppress the dos window. But now I am stuck at some
different problem.
code snippet is:
<CustomAction Id="SETRUNBATCH" Property="RUNBATCH"
Value=""[RUNBAT]" "[DEFAULTINSTALLLOC]"
"[JAREXE]"" />
<CustomAction Id="RUNBATCH" BinaryKey="WixCA" DllEntry="CAQuietExec"
Return="ignore" Execute="deferred" Impersonate="yes" />
<InstallUISequence>
<Custom Action="SETRUNBATCH"
Sequence="6531"><![CDATA[INSTALLED_PRODUCTVERSION=""]]></Custom>
<Custom Action="RUNBATCH"
Sequence="6532"><![CDATA[INSTALLED_PRODUCTVERSION=""]]></Custom>
.....
</InstallUISequence>
But when I run the installer it throwing error 2762 and quits the
installation. I rendered the log file then I got following error:
DEBUG: Error 2762: Unable to schedule operation. The action must be
scheduled between InstallInitialize and InstallFinalize.
But I want to run this custom action after files are copied onto the system.
that is not after installfiles action.
Why it's throwing this error?
Can anyone help me out?
Thanks,
Hukum
