Old VB6 Setup.exe hang
Hi Community!
I have a Problem with an old VB6 Setup!
For testing purposes I have logged on on a test mchine and have added a Setup.lst File.
If I try to install this VB6 Setup, logged in into the OS System, with the following syntax, triggered from an VBScript
Setup.exe -s Setup.lst
the Installation goes through without the Need of any userinteraction, but there are Dialog Windows, which Pop up shortly and disappear.
If I try to distribute this script and Setup through our Software Distribution System, the Installation hang during the VB6 Setup.
Other Software pieces like an Installshield Setup work well.
It seems that this VB6 Setup try to Display this Dialog window, but they are not neccessary, and because it is not able to Display it, it hangs!?
Do you have similar experiences with old VB6 Setup.exe files?
Thanks
Robert
