My batch file is below :-
-----------------------
Private Sub CreateBatFileUninstallSQL2008(ByVal bkupPath As String, ByVal configFileName As String)
Dim fs As FileStream
fs = New FileStream(bkupPath + "\Setup2008.bat", FileMode.Create, FileAccess.ReadWrite)
Dim sw As New StreamWriter(fs)
sw.WriteLine("@ECHO off")
sw.WriteLine("echo Installing SQL Server 2008 R2...")
sw.WriteLine("""" + bkupPath + "\SetupInstallerVB\Dependency Setup\SQL2008 Setup\setup.exe"" /ConfigurationFile=" + bkupPath + "\" + configFileName)
sw.Close()
fs.Close()
End Sub
above two function are fine work to install in unattended mode server2008 by run the projects debugger.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
But when i create a msi setup through installer class, not install server2008 in unattended mode.
My Installer code is :-
--------------------
Protected Overrides Sub OnBeforeInstall(ByVal savedState As System.Collections.IDictionary)
MyBase.OnBeforeInstall(savedState)
System.Diagnostics.Debugger.Launch()
System.Diagnostics.Debugger.Break()
Call UnattendedSQL2008InstallByCommandLine()
End Sub
Private Sub UnattendedSQL2008InstallByCommandLine()
Try
Dim Path As String = "D:\DCom\SetupInstallerVB"
Dim myProcess As New Process()
CreateInstallConfigIniFileSQL2008(Path, "InstallSetup2008.ini")
CreateBatFileInstallSQL2008(Path, "InstallSetup2008.ini")
myProcess.StartInfo.FileName = Path + "\Setup2008.bat"
myProcess.StartInfo = New ProcessStartInfo(myProcess.StartInfo.FileName)
myProcess.StartInfo.WindowStyle = ProcessWindowStyle.Hidden
myProcess.StartInfo.RedirectStandardOutput = True
myProcess.StartInfo.UseShellExecute = False
myProcess.Start()
myProcess.WaitForExit()
myProcess.Close()
DeleteFile(Path, "\Setup2008.bat")
DeleteFile(Path, "\InstallSetup2008.ini")
Catch ex As Exception
MsgBox("Should be restart computer for SQL Installation...")
Throw ex
End Try
End Sub
How will i solve the above problem by msi setup????
please help me any instruction....
