Re: [NAnt-users] msi task - 'cabarc' failed to start

[Gert D. <ger...@te...>]

Beth,

 

No, that should do it.

 

Can you try just executing cabarc from within your build file first?

 

For example:

<exec program="cabarc" />

Subject: Re: [NAnt-users] msi task - 'cabarc' failed to start

 


Hi Gert,


Actually I did not have the Cabinet SDK installed, but I do now
(c:\tools\cabsdk).  I then updated my PATH env variable to include
c:\tools\cabsdk\bin.  If I open a new command prompt window and just type
'cabarc', the program is found.


However this had no effect on my msi task in my nant script.  I am still
getting the same behavior.  I then put an echo statement to print the path
(${environment::get-variable('PATH')) in the NAnt script just to be sure the
cabsdk was part of that path, and it is.


Do I need to configure something else in order to find the Cabinet SDK?


Thanks for your help,


Beth

Beth,
 
Do you have the Cabinet SDK installed? Can you launch cabarc.exe from the
command prompt?

Hi,
 
I saw a thread with the same subject approx a year ago in the mail archive,
but I did not see any resolution.  I am having the same exact problem.  At
the end of this email is  the output from running the msi task from my nant
script.  I have not done anything with setting a path (either env variable
or within the nant script itself).
