Run Problem - .MSI

[Guest KronicDreamz]

I've been trying a lot of different options to see if I can get AutoIt to launch a MSI install file.

RunWait("C:\Test.msi")

It returns the following message:

"Unable to execute the external program"

This is a valid file and can be launched by double clicking on it.

What if you use msiexec.exe with parameters:

Thanks for pointing me in the right direction, question now is, what are the correct parameters.

I'm trying to install a MSI file that is located

C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator...

Maybe the spaces are throwing it off?

RunWait("msiexec.exe /i C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator.....MSI")

Any path that has spaces must have double quotes around them to prevent extra paramaters from being added instead of your directory path. See FAQ #7 to understand more about this.

Try

RunWait('msiexec.exe /i "C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator.....MSI"')
