WinRAR sfx repack

[rfsimoes]

Hi,

I'm new to WPI and nlite but have been reading alot and experimenting too...

I'm having a problem with deployment of kaspersky (KIS8).

I have extracted the install files from the install pack to add the registration key.

I then repacked the files with winrar and made a sfx with the following cmd:

msiexec.exe /i kis.en.msi /qb /norestart

;The comment below contains SFX script commands

Path=c:\temp

Setup=msiexec.exe /i kis.en.msi /qb /norestart

Silent=1

Overwrite=1

Title=Kaspersky Internet Security v8.0.0.506

Text

{

Kaspersky Internet Security v8.0.0.506

}

The instalation of this package runs fine but WPI jumps to the next install program while kaspersky is still installing.

I guess this is what is causing the next app to fail to install.

What should be done to prevent this?

thanks in advance

maybe

setup=start "" /wait msiexec /i kis.en.msi /qb /norestart

[Kelsenellenelvian]

Setup=kis.en.msi /qb /norestart

No need for the msiexec part

[rfsimoes]

Setup=kis.en.msi /qb /norestart

No need for the msiexec part

Thank you for your fast reply but I'm afraid the problem persists...

WPI takes the next step and KIS is starting the instalation...

any ideas?

OOOOoooo der I see the problem!

You need to add tempmode to it.

like so:

;The comment below contains SFX script commands

Setup=as3.msi /qn
TempMode
Silent=1
Overwrite=1

Temp mode tells it to extract to a tempdir and then run the setup. I have like half a dozen of these thing in my setup. Sorry I missed that before.

Thank you so much Kelsenellenelvian.

TempMode solved 2 problems, the temporary extraction and delete, and the wpi timing.

1 problem solved and a gazilion more to come...

thanks
