IIS Application Extension Mapping?

Post by jaxmeier »

All,

Do any of the versions of InstallAware support Application Extension Mapping in IIS? I have several extensions that need to be mapped in my installation.

Thanks,
jax

At the moment no, but as far as i know, the development team is working on such a feature for the next version.

1) Any idea on a time frame? Our need is immediate, of course...
2) Any suggestions on a workaround? If I can do it using a vbscript, is that possible using InstallAware?

Thanks,

1) Timeframe, i don't know at the moment
2) Of course you can do it on VBScript.
You can create your script, add it as a support file to InstallAWARE and execute it later.
You will use Run Program to run the $WINSYSDIR$\\wscript.exe $SUPPORTDIR$\\the_script.vbs as parameter to execute it and Wait for Completion

Also, you can create your own dll/exe on your favorite programming language and execute it from InstallAWARE.
