Call VBscript from Custom Action fail
Hi people!
I'm packaging an application with Wise Package Studio 7, and after of installation I have to copy a file from the program folder to c:\, so I did a basic Vbsript :
Dim fso, f2
Set fso = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
Set f2 = fso.GetFile("C:\program files\IPC2009\PDOXUSRS.NET")
' Copiar el archivo al directorio c:\
f2.Copy ("C:\PDOXUSRS.NET")
I ran this vbscript from a Custom Action (Execute Inmediate tab) before InstallFinalize. When I'm installing, appears an error message 1720, in the log file, it shows "Error 1720, Line 3, Char 1 file not found". But if I run this script manually, it works well!
Does anyone knows how can I solve it??

If the file is in your package, it would be a great deal simpler to use the DuplicateFile table.

Thank you VBScab, the file is in my package, how can I do that?
If I just have to create a new row in DuplicateFile table, what have I to put into "DestFolder"? It isn't a folder, is C:\

Also if the above is the case, during the execute immediate phase your files won't be in place yet when you run your CA since they only actually get installed during Deferred execution
(that is, execute immediate before InstallFinalize)

I put the CA into Deferred Execution, now it's working!
Thank you very much...
