Using InnoSetup

[Dinz]

Hi Guys,

I created SetUp Package using InnoSetup and installed the same.....but the application gets hanged and stop responding but the same works with PDW.......I think some required system files which are automtically included thru PDW are missing when u create thru InnoSetUp........so how to include those files.....

correct, with innosetup you have to include the files yourself. that way you have control of what goes into the setup package.

you can use the package& deployment wizard to make a dependancy file which will list all of the files required by your app (well most of the time) there may be others you will need to add though, like if your using ADO you might wanna include MDAC and DCOM98 etc

here an example of copying VB files!

; begin VB system files
Source: "c:\winnt\system32\Stdole2.tlb";  DestDir: "{sys}"; CopyMode: alwaysskipifsameorolder; Flags: restartreplace uninsneveruninstall sharedfile regtypelib
Source: "c:\winnt\system32\msvbvm60.dll"; DestDir: "{sys}"; CopyMode: alwaysskipifsameorolder; Flags: restartreplace uninsneveruninstall sharedfile regserver
Source: "c:\winnt\system32\oleaut32.dll"; DestDir: "{sys}"; CopyMode: alwaysskipifsameorolder; Flags: restartreplace uninsneveruninstall sharedfile regserver
Source: "c:\winnt\system32\olepro32.dll"; DestDir: "{sys}"; CopyMode: alwaysskipifsameorolder; Flags: restartreplace uninsneveruninstall sharedfile regserver
Source: "c:\winnt\system32\asycfilt.dll"; DestDir: "{sys}"; CopyMode: alwaysskipifsameorolder; Flags: restartreplace uninsneveruninstall sharedfile
Source: "c:\winnt\system32\comcat.dll";   DestDir: "{sys}"; CopyMode: alwaysskipifsameorolder; Flags: restartreplace uninsneveruninstall sharedfile regserver
Source: "c:\winnt\system32\urlmon.dll";   DestDir: "{sys}"; CopyMode: alwaysskipifsameorolder; Flags: restartreplace uninsneveruninstall sharedfile regserver
Source: "c:\winnt\system32\winmm.dll";   DestDir: "{sys}"; CopyMode: alwaysskipifsameorolder; Flags: restartreplace uninsneveruninstall sharedfile
Source: "c:\winnt\system32\wininet.dll";   DestDir: "{sys}"; CopyMode: alwaysskipifsameorolder; Flags: restartreplace uninsneveruninstall sharedfile
; end VB system files

;begin ocx files
Source: "c:\winnt\system32\Comdlg32.ocx"; DestDir: "{sys}"; CopyMode: alwaysskipifsameorolder; Flags: restartreplace sharedfile regserver
;end ocx files

Darre1,

Can you tell me what the parameters for the DCOM95, 98 mean? I've searched everywhere for this and I couldn't find it.

Thanks in advance.
