Errors in Building Scrip

What Source file are you talking about? I tried both of these:
 
D:DataScrollSawKC-P10-Work  -- this is the directory of the Application (all files and VPB,exe)
 
c:WindowsSystem32  -- this is the directory where comdll32.ocx can be found.
 
I added these via the Search Folder tab.
 
After the Create Script I went back to the Search Folder tab and c:WindowsSystem32 was not there.

Randem

Yes, the file will be missing until you add the source folder location in the search folder like I stated in the previous post.

What did you do to resolve the issue? I started a New project and I am getting the Source file error again.

Keychain.pjt (2.4 k)

Randem

Yes, I verified that it was in your search folders tab and now it is not. That will solve that issue.

Randem

OK, what did you do to get the original source location?
 
Source: D:DataScrollSawKC-P10-WorkPackageSupportcomdlg32.ocx; DestDir: {sys}; Flags:  regserver restartreplace sharedfile;  
 
 
It has to be in the search folder list in order to find the file. Add D:DataScrollSawKC-P10-WorkPackageSupport to the Search Files Tab and make sure it is not in the Exclude Folders list.

I remove it from ADD FILES. You will see that I am still getting that source file error. That's the reason I added it.

Keychain.iss (5.1 k)

Randem

Why did you add it in Add Files? It was already picked up and found from the vbp. No need to add a file that is already there...

pepsisc

I still have one source file error--comdll32.ocx. I don't understand, I added it in Add Files.

Keychain.iss (5.1 k)

Randem

Also, this should not be your source exe
 
Source: C:Program FilesScroll Saw Keychain MakerKeyChain.exe; DestDir: {app}; Flags:  ignoreversion restartreplace;  
 
Your source exe should come from your development folder not the install folder. Place the Program Files folder in the exclude list then re-run InnoScript.

To understand those choices you need to understand how Inno Setup operates. Those choices have nothing to do with XP. XP is an NT OS. Those choices are for the OS's before NT 4.0. Both the Win and NT choices go together so that you can make an installation that will run on each OS or better yet the lowest OS that you will support and the highest one that you will support.
 
More information can be found in the Inno Setup (NOT InnoScript) Help Documentation.
 
One question though... Why are you using the Auto OS Updater when you are not using a database? You are making your installation way too big with something you don't use.

I still have an Source File error on VB_DCOM_MDAC_JET_Autosetup_XP.exe
 
One thing I find confusing: Under Win Version you have NONE, Windows 95,Windows 98, and Windows ME. What do I click on for Windows XP?

pjt file for KeyChain.vbo
Keychain.pjt (2.6 k)

Quick look at the .iss file...
 
Package and Deployment Wizard Setup.lst File:   D:DataScrollSawKC-P10-WorkKeyChain.vbp
 
 
The .vbp file is not a Setup.lst file... This is where your problem begins. Choose the VBP button when using a .vbp file.

Randem

If by Agreement you mean License Page then Yes. You can also have a file that shows before installation and one that shows after the installation is done. You can display whatever you want from a text or better yet an Rich Text File (.rtf).
 
I will have a look at your files...

Randem: Attached are the .iss and .pjt files. I am using version 10.2 Build 3.
 
I do not know what PDW.lst is? I am trying to create an install package for a VB6 application.
 
Another question not dealing with the above problem. Dose InnoScript have the ability to create an agreement page for installation purposes?
 
Here's a question that deals with the application I am doing. There are several fonts: that need to be installed during the Installation. Can that be handled and, if so, how is it done via Innoscript.
 
Thanks,
Sam
pjt file for Keychain.vbp
KeyChain.pjt (2.5 k)

Aloha pepsisc,
 
I canot tell you anything from viewing a portion of the script. I would need to see all of the script (that is why all the information is at the top of the script). I also need to see your .pjt file so I can see the options you have chosen. I also cannot tell what version of InnoScript you are using.
 
I really can't make head or tails of what you are attempting to accomplish. if you are selecting PDW .lst but then I see the vbp mentioned. Those two selections cannot be chosen together. I need more information and clarification.
