and do a ctrl-f to look for something; then switch to another window (pre-install) and do ctrl-g -- SUF crashes.

Creating a folder in the shortcut folder

Teqskater — Fri, 20 Nov 2009 20:50:06 GMT

Hello people. I want to create a folder inside the shortcut folder in the start menu. This folder must be called "Docs". And inside there must be readme's and manuals of my product.

I've made this piece of code wich i think is correct to use:

Code:

Map = SessionVar.Expand("%AppShortcutFolderName%");

Folder.Create(Map.."\\Docs");

But where o where do i need to place this code? Or am i doing it wrong.

Then i did open de file properties window of a manual that i want to have inside the docs folder, go to the Shortcuts tab and changed the custom location to

Code:

%AppShortcutFolderName%\Docs

What im doing wrong because it doesnt work

Can Autoplay Media Studio support multi-language?

Alpinechang — Fri, 20 Nov 2009 15:43:08 GMT

I download a Autoplay Media Studio 7.5 trail version and give a try because I am looking for a powerful installation tool for my business purpose. The most important is I need to support multi-language just like Japanese.

I try to check it on my new PC, HP Desktop with Win7 Chinese OS, have Chinese and English fonts files included.

I met a critical issue that seems Autoplay Media Studio 7.5 can't support multi-language. You could refer to my attached.

I try to make sure Chinese, English and Japanese words are shown correctly from that. I type English and Chinese words in the text column of button properties by myself, and copy Japanese words from Yahoo JP.

You could find the Japanese words is correctly in the column properties window, but will fail/doesn't work when back to page.

Does it mean Autoplay Media Studio not support multi-language? or need to have other plag-in software?

Please help to advise, appreciate.

Regards,
Alpine

Failed Update - Error 2502

paulmatos — Thu, 19 Nov 2009 22:13:22 GMT

I am having an issue updating on a vista machine. My trueUpdate application is coded to download an ini server off of my server and store it in the temp directory. Then it compares the key in that file to a key in the installed directory to detect if an update is needed. I have tested it on one of my vista machines and it works fine. However on a different machine I recieve the error code 2502 when it tries to download the ini file off of the server. When I type in the url it is trying to access I can access the file no problem.

Can anyone elaborate on this error code. I know from the help file that it means "could not open request". Is There any reason this would work on one machine and not another. Here is my code.

-- Where is the server INI file located
g_INIFilePath = SessionVar.Expand(" removed ");

-- Where do you want to download the INI file to?
g_INIDownloadDest = SessionVar.Expand("%TempFolder%\\%ProductName%\\cu rrentVersion.ini");

-- Set up the HTTP basic authentication table
tableBasicAuthData = nil;
if(g_HTTPUseBasicAuth) then
tableBasicAuthData = { UserName=g_HTTPAuthUsername, Password=g_HTTPAuthPassword };
end

-- Download most receant INI file using the appropriate protocal (HTTP or HTTPS)
if(g_HTTPUseSSL) then
HTTP.DownloadSecure(g_INIFilePath, g_INIDownloadDest, MODE_BINARY, "20", "80", tableBasicAuthData);
else
HTTP.Download(g_INIFilePath, g_INIDownloadDest, MODE_BINARY, "20", "80", tableBasicAuthData);
end

g_DownloadResult = Application.GetLastError();
if(g_DownloadResult ~= 0) then
title = "";
message = SessionVar.Expand("An error occurred");
Dialog.Message(title, message, MB_OK, MB_ICONEXCLAMATION, MB_DEFBUTTON1);
Application.ExitScript();
end
StatusDlg.Hide();

Reading 64 bit registry...

NitLions — Thu, 19 Nov 2009 19:19:06 GMT

I seem to be having a problem I can't really figure out and maybe its just not possible with the version of AMS I have (6.0).

I'm trying to read some registry entries on a 64 bit machine to determine if IIS 6 Compat. Pack is installed. The desired registry keys I want to check are there, but I'm getting nothing returned.

Is it something like the fact autorun is a 32 bit app so it searches the 32 bit registry area?

Any help is greatly appreciated!

Thanks!

Can I call a dll from Lua (Auto Play Media Studio) and retrieve a return value?

NitLions — Thu, 19 Nov 2009 19:16:27 GMT

I was just wondering if there was a way to call a .dll from LUA scripting used in AMS.

What I would like to do is create a .dll that checks for IIS version, If IIS 7 check if IIS 6 compat pack is installed and then check if ASP.NET extensions are enabled.

Any information is greatly appreciated.

Need help improving project design ("USB Write-Protector")

mystica — Thu, 19 Nov 2009 15:49:54 GMT

A while ago, I made a simplistic little utility designed to write-protect my USB thumb-drives ... which works by flagging the Windows Storage Device Policies RegKey. (The idea was to protect USB thumb-drives from virus-infection by write-protecting the drive, much in the same way as the little physical switches which used to appear on many popular USB thumb-drives some years ago).

Now, the program works well enough ... it's very basic/simple (just flags the relevant Windows regkey) ... but one of its many limitations/faults, is that in order for the write-protect feature to "kick in", the user has to first unplug/replug the USB drive, after running the program.

Ideally, what I'd like to happen, is for my program to be able to:

- recognise whether the user has any USB devices attached.
- if not, advise user to attach the device in question.
... (and here's the important part!) ...
- if so, detect whether the user has unplugged/replugged the device in question since running the program,
and if not ,
- advise the user that doing so, is necessary before 'protection' kicks in.

Now, I've thought about a possible solution along the lines of using Drive.Enumerate & Drive.GetType combined with various Dialog-Options, but the solution is proving to be more challenging that I envisaged. (I even considered something as as simple as flagging a regkey to let the program know whether the user has plugged/replugged the usb-drive ... but still I can't figure on an idea that works properly).

So essentially, what I need here, is a way to detect whether a particular USB drive has been re-plugged after my application has been run. Anyone have any ideas here? (The project in its current state, is attached below):

Uninstall Question

mikem — Thu, 19 Nov 2009 10:32:54 GMT

hi There,

When I create an install package, how can I get the installer to see if the software has already been installed so it can perform an uninstall operation before running the new one?

I have looked through Help and did a search on the forum but could not find anything ..
