How to create log file for a launched setup.exe


I have inherited some InstallShield InstallScript projects. I am currently using InstallShield 2009.

I cannot seem to create a log file when I run the setup.exe. What command line options do I need to specify?


Solution

  • There is no such feature in InstallScript project types. The really good logging is in MSI project types. InstallScript really only has the ability to record a response file and generate a very terse logfile as part of a silent install. (/s /f1 /f2 arguments)
