You can use this guide to create your SFX. In "Run after extraction", you type setup.exe -s

i know how i can make a .exe archiv with setup. but with iss it dont work. when i wirte setup=setup.exe -s -f1"setup.iss" ...........

[Stinger12348]

usually when I have troubles has something to do with how it points to setup.iss. You might try

setup.exe -s -f1 ".\setup.iss"

or if the path is somewhat specifict, such as %windir%\install you could run

setup.exe -s -f1 "%windir%\install\setup.iss"

going to have to mess with it a bit

Wouldn't setup.exe -s be enough?

[Stinger12348]

it might be for some installers, never has worked for me. have tried just about every combination of switches I could think of on some installers. but I'm still pretty much a noob at all this stuff.

As the SFX will go to a temp dir, -s should be enough. If it doesn't work, check in the logfile to see what error code it gives, that will tell you what's wrong. Also, did you make the .iss yourself (recopy it there manually after using -r)?
