Unable to use setup.iss file for silent install

Post by paycho »

Ok, the Iss file is not working properly. The one thing missing is the targetdir, I want it to be something different then c:\programmfile\ulead

Here's a sample of my iss file:
[{448AB2CB-C94A-47DE-80B8-9D7824DEFA57}-SdAskDestPath-0]
szDir=d:\Systprod\MovieFactory
Result=1
[{448AB2CB-C94A-47DE-80B8-9D7824DEFA57}-SdComponentTree-0]
szDir=d:\Systprod\MovieFactory
Component-type=string
Component-count=2
Component-0=Ulead DVD MovieFactory 4.0
Component-1=Ulead DVD DiskRecorder 2.1
Result=1

Even with that, the software will be installed at c:\programmfile\ulead.

So, is there something else to configure so that my iss file will be apply correctly ?

Thanks

First, welcome to the forum.

You should not modify the .iss file by yourself. To install Ulead product into a folder you wish to use, run the installer and it should ask you where you want the program to be installed. Change the setting and continue the installation should install the program correctly.

However, for the components like DDR or Burn.Now, you might not be able to change the destination folder. If you change the folder setting manually, the program might not be installed properly and might get it crashed after install.

If you wish to get some official support from Ulead, please fill the tech support form in http://www.ulead.com/tech/techsupport.htm and submit it to Ulead by following the steps on the webpages.

Hope this helps.
