Daniel, I tried your suggestions, but ran into a couple of issues: 1. The "Uninstall using this command line" option does not appear to be executing when I uninstall the main application. I've searched through a verbose MSI log, and don't see any reference to the command line arguments (I've also tr...
Hello, I want to build an installer that can normally be installed offline, except for downloading one feature that does not change very often. I was going to use a web-based installer, but this requires an internet connection for any installation, and we want the core installation to be allowed off...
Hello, Advanced Installer (10.9.1) currently supports adding custom dictionaries for the MSI installer (for languages not supported out-of-the-box). However, these dictionaries do not apply to the bootstrapper. Based on the answer here , it is currently not possible to add new language support to th...
Thanks for the answer. I'll add a post for this in the Feature Request forums. If you can add custom translations for the MSI, I really would have expected to do the same for the bootstrapper.
I'm working on filling in the dictionary for the Kazakh language, but I don't see any strings related to the bootstrapper and installing prerequisites. Where can I find a dictionary to modify for the bootstrapper?
Hello, I see in this post from 2005 that the Kazakh language is supposed to be covered. However, as of v10.9.1 it is still not a registered language. Is there any progress on this, or do I need to find someone who can do translate the fill in a Kazakh AIL file for me? If I need to take care of it, i...
I've attached a sample AIP project and file with a Russian name that reproduces this. My target machine configuration is:
OS: Windows 7/8/8.1 Pro x64
System language: English
User language: English, Russian (error happens on both)
If I include a file in my installer that has Russian characters and use LZMA compression in the Media -> Archive selection, I get the following error when trying to copy the Russian file to the target PC: "Source file not found: <path to my file>. Verify that the file exists and that you can access ...
Daniel, See the attached screenshot for an example of the problem I see. I also see that Advanced Installer has options to "automatically use the system language" and "automatically use the current user language." When I use "display a language selection dialog", it looks like the combo box is defau...
Dan, Thanks for the reply. This is what I'm doing now, and it works fine. What I asking for is an option to have the language drop-down to default to the system language when the installer starts. In my case, the drop-down always defaults to English. So if I have a Russian user on a Russian system, ...
Hello, I have a multi-lingual installer where the user must select the language. However, the language selection always defaults to English. I would like the language drop-down to default to the system language, but still allow the user to change the language. As of AI 10.9.1, the only way to use th...
If I use the "Basic UI and Progress" bootstrapper and any of my prerequisites fail to install, there is no indication of the failure. If I don't check "Continue with main installation even if the prerequisite is not installed", then the installation simply aborts with no feedback to the user. If I a...
