WISE Installer MAINDIR variable not working
Hello,
I'm trying to push out CoreFTP via TEM using this command:
coreftplite2.1.exe /S /M=c:\temp\install.txt
Where install.txt is my variables file that simply contains my switch in Install directory as shown here:
MAINDIR=E:\CoreFTP\
The process is launching fine but just wasn't completing. If I take the /S switch off so I can see what's going on, the problem is immediately apparent. The WISE installer is reading my install.txt and then catenating it to the existing variable, NOT replacing it like it should.
C:\Program Files (x86)\E:\CoreFTP
Anyone have any ideas?

CoreFTP is an MSI. Extract it and run the MSI.
They use a CustomAction to set the Install location, the variable MAINDIR is NOT in the CoreFTP MSI.
you would have to use TARGETDIR=E:\CoreFTP\
Set the existing variable to "" in the main code. That's the best I can suggest in the absence of viewing your code.
If posting again, do include information on which precise version of Wisescript you are using.
