Default Web Application Installer

Hello,

I created a web application installer to deploy a web site. Both the MSI and EXE files are giving me the following error:

Installation Incomplete

The installer was interrupted before the application deployment could be installed. You need to restart the installer and try again.

So I tried again and again, rebuild the project again. Still same error.

Any ideas?

Brian

It's a good idea to generate a log file for the installation.
e.g. for installer you can do this:
Code:
msiexec <msi_file> /i /l*v <log_file_name>
There are many reasons for the error. It's hard to solve the problem sometime even with log files. However, you should try the following:
1) install your program from very short path e.g. C:\apps\my.msi. Installation could fail if the path is too long. It's highly possible you will solve the problem by this.

2) check the permissions for destination folder.

Good Luck.:)

Hello:

I've noticed that MSI files run from a SUBSTituted drives always come up with that error.

If you're running the MSI file from a drive letter created with SUBST, try moving it to a physical drive letter then try again.<div align="right"></div id="right">
