Thauzar Posted September 13, 2004 Share Posted September 13, 2004 It's really strange, but I double checked and the readme (lisezmoi) file in the lusetup2.0.zip and in the liveupdate folder (the one you sent me) are both saying it's v2.0 dated december 2003... I don't know what else to do or say...And to RyanVM, it's not live update telling me it's up to date but the installer itself, when I manually tried the file mazin sent me from the french folder on symantec's ftp.So I hope they are currently working on releasing the other lu setup in the other languages... anyone here not on an english system too?

RyanVM Posted September 13, 2004 Share Posted September 13, 2004 Does anybody know how to change LiveUpdate settings so it's installed with them in place?I pulled Settings.Default.LiveUpdate from the SFX archive and found the relevant keys (PREFERENCES\EXPRESS_MODE\ENABLED=YES and such), but after modifying the keys and repacking the file into the archive, it seems to completely ignore those settings once LiveUpdate is actually installed. Anybody have a clue how to make the settings stick? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nigel.pinder Posted September 13, 2004 Share Posted September 13, 2004 I dont know if I`m stating the obvious here, but I made a SFX of the whole sav91400 directory, opened the SFX, pressed ALT-M and added the ;The comment below contains SFX script commandsPath=%SystemDrive%\Install\SAV\SavePathSilent=2Overwrite=1then, modified the installation batch file as follows. This uncompresses the SFX file, changes to that folder and runs the sav.msi as normal.ECHO Extracting SAV 9.0.0.1400start /wait %systemdrive%\install\sav91400.execd %systemdrive%\install\sav91400ECHO SAV 9.0.0.1400 V.Defs updated 28.8.2004start /wait SAV.msi /QB RUNLIVEUPDATE=0 REBOOT=ReallySuppressThis compresses the entire SAV91400 from 51.5Mb uncompressed to only folder to 19.8Mb.When finished just delete the SFX file and SAV folder.I have been trying to install this automatically, but until I read and tried Mazins Guide I couldnt do it.

mazin Posted September 13, 2004 Share Posted September 13, 2004 I have been trying to install this automatically, but until I read and tried Mazins Guide I couldnt do it.Compression idea is good of course as it saves more space.Execuse me! Have you got problems with my guide? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nigel.pinder Posted September 13, 2004 Share Posted September 13, 2004 No, not a problem with your guide at all, thats what I was saying, I couldnt get SAV 9 to install , then found your guide and it works now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Use the installation switch from the sfx itself. ;The comment below contains SFX script commandssetup=SAV.msi /QB RUNLIVEUPDATE=0 REBOOT=ReallySuppressSavePathSilent=2Overwrite=1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1chaoticadult Posted September 13, 2004 Share Posted September 13, 2004 my rar sfx is about 16.6MB which is decent for me. I'm waiting for 7-Zip to add some features and WinRAR will go bye-bye. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm waiting for 7-Zip to add some features and WinRAR will go bye-bye.About the only thing 7-zip's SFX module is missing at this point IMO is the ability to be completely hidden during extraction. Also, I'd like it if it were able to directly execute MSI files instead of needing msiexec to do it. Igor told me in email that he might put that into a future version.

1chaoticadult Posted September 13, 2004 Share Posted September 13, 2004 Well I disagree about the features missing. I think adding your own icon, specifying your own directory (inside the sfx) and ability to edit them later are the three features I really want. I'm been WinRAR fan for so long. Its hard to turn from that. Although I appreciate 7zip compression especially when using Inno Setup. Hehe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
