Hello InstallAware,

I recently created a setup installing a sql server instance.
I hat to adapt the command ine string, which luckily has to be localized when you are building a localized setup.

Did you know that your strings in the localization tool have length limitation to 260 characters?
did you know that
/q /ACTION=Install /SECURITYMODE=SQL /SAPWD="$SA_PWD$" /INSTANCENAME="EFS" /FEATURES=SQL,SDK /SQLSVCACCOUNT="NT AUTHORITY\NETWORK SERVICE" /SQLSYSADMINACCOUNTS="$SQL_COMPUTER_NAME$\$SQL_USER_NAME$" /IAcceptSQLServerLicenseTerms=TRUE /TCPENABLED="1" /NPENABLED="1" /BROWSERSVCSTARTUPTYPE=Automatic

has a bit more?

Dear Anja,

of course that localized strings are limited to 260 characters.

By the way, I don't know why do you want to store the full command line string. Just store the values of those parameters that effectively need to be changed.

Hope this helps you.

Regards
