Log file questions

Post by get101 »

One can get a log file (/L parameter) which gives information about the installation.

Question 1
Is it possible to control the level of detail in the log file? I would like a log with less information. Preferably just a list of the files installed and whether they were registered. Wise Installer gives this and I wonder if Installaware has something similar?

Question 2: At the end of the log file, it says:-

Code: Select all

=== Logging stopped: 28/06/2007  17:48:51 ===
MSI (s) (18:2C) [17:48:51:125]: Note: 1: 1707 
MSI (s) (18:2C) [17:48:51:156]: Note: 1: 2205 2:  3: Error 
MSI (s) (18:2C) [17:48:51:171]: Note: 1: 2228 2:  3: Error 4: SELECT `Message` FROM `Error` WHERE `Error` = 1707 
MSI (s) (18:2C) [17:48:51:203]: Note: 1: 2205 2:  3: Error 
MSI (s) (18:2C) [17:48:51:218]: Note: 1: 2228 2:  3: Error 4: SELECT `Message` FROM `Error` WHERE `Error` = 1709 
MSI (s) (18:2C) [17:48:51:234]: Product: Test Program -- Installation completed successfully.
What do these errors mean, and how do I fix them?

Question 3:
How can I tell from the log file that a dll, ocx or exe got registered?
