Return codes

zchris · Post by **zchris** » Mon Oct 10, 2005 9:31 am

We are using the new Terminate with Exit Code command to signal if a setup has failed. This works very well.

However it appears that if the setup cannot unpack itself (out of space, etc.) it will return 0 (SUCCESS).

Could you please verify this and change it to return an error code? Thanks!

Thanks for reporting this. I'll have this escalated and resolved.

zchris, could you just please tell us if you are doing a silent installation? That would help a lot. Thank you.

Yes, we are doing silent installs (with a few parameters if that matters). However in the script we set SILENT=FALSE and show only progress dialogs without a cancel button.

I forced the setup to unpack to a removable media with no free space, in both silence and non-silence ways, and both of the times I get a return code of 1.
Please, try to run the same setup but in non-silence mode, as you will get a message box with a description of the error, and post it here. Thank you.

Sorry for the late reply.

I haven't been able to produce this error again but I'll let you know when I have more information.

Thanks.
