Read Logfile Of Installshield

[Bernd Braun]

Dear to install different software which depend on each other:

#Installation of UG NX4 with error control

#Read Registry UGII_BASE_DIR, UGII_Root_DIR and bct_eoms_dir

$UGIIBASE_DIR = RegRead ("HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\Environment", "UGII_BASE_DIR")

$UGII_Root_DIR = RegRead ("HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\Environment", "UGII_Root_DIR")

$BCT_EOMS_DIR = RegRead ("HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\Environment", "BCT_EOMS_DIR")

#start installation Installshield Scrip engine

Runwait (@SystemDir & "msiexec.exe /i" & "\\Dsmaster\DATEN\SERVICE\zenappl\UG\nx4\ISScript10.Msi" & " /qn /li c:\gb\ugnx4scriptenginel.log")

$file = FileOpen("c:\gb\ugnx4scriptenginel.log", 0)

; Read in file at a time until the EOF is reached

$var = FileRead("c:\gb\ugnx4scriptenginel.log")

for $i = 0 to $var[0]

if StringInStr($var[$i], "Installation operation completed successfully") then

Do next installation and so on ....

EndIf

Next

FileClose($file)

The Result of the fileread is complete different than that what is expected. The file is not read in the right way. In Notepad everything can be read fine !

You look as if you have used batch files before...

Ok, back to your problem.

Was that message box using my script, or your script?

[Bernd Braun]

Your script give the message box result "Error" !
