How to embed .cab file in mst
Hi all
I created a .cab file i put entry of that cab file in media table using installshield . At the time of installtion i got the pop-up
The file required can not be installed because the cabinate file is not digitally signed . This may indicate that the cabinate file is corrupted .
I created a cabinate file with cabpacker 1.4 tool

This may indicate that the cabinate file is corrupted .Nonsense.
Clearly, you're trying to package using Orca or InstEdit but you are not yet at the level of knowledge to make that a realistic option.
Before you do anything else, read & digest Phil Wilson's book The Definitive Guide to Windows Installer. It's available as a downloadable PDF. Then have you employer purchase a proper MSI authoring tool. Today, that means InstallShield: Wise is dead.

Not so sure about that Ian, the OP does mention that he put an entry in the Media table using Installshield ... and if thats the case theres no need to use 3rd party CAB packing tools as the 'Releases' section in the InstallShield Editor should take care of that (assuming that the base MSI is converted to an ISM project file first). Also, a full validation taking specific note of any ICE81 warnings/errors would probably assist.
Agree wholeheartedly with your comment to the OP to read The Definitive Guide to Windows Installer as I sense a level of inexperience here.

Oops! Missed that! LOL. I guess I was harking back to another post from the same user which also suggested that he was editing tables directly.

You should not nest MSIs i.e. run one MSI by executing a Custom Action in another MSI.
Besides, there must be 100,000 script examples showing how to execute a program.
