Packaging ActiveX to MSI in Admin Studio

Hi!

Is it a way in Admin Studio to create an MSI from a ActiveX?

I don´t have any EXE-file and the ActiveX shows only when I go to a certain webpage. So I have to do some sort of capture.

In Wise package studio it was easy to do but using Admin Studio I don´t find how to do it.

Please help!

Greetings

Calle

Answer Summary:
check to make sure you're not using SmartMonitor, then you should be able to go on without providing an exe, just click next on the screen.

You start a setup capture and install the ActiveX in your browser. You should then capture the files that go into the Downloaded Program Files folder.

 

Personally I tend to set all DLL files that come in the download to self-register for an ActiveX package.

Hi! Thanks for the answer, but when I run setup capture, Repack.exe? a setup-file is required, which I don´t have. The ActiveX is prompted in the topbar when I open the webpage.

  • you don't have to provide a setup.exe if you use snapshotting I believe
    or if you can't get past that stage, you can always provide notepad.exe as your 'setup' - pjgeutjens 12 years ago
