creating mobaxterm package

[Skarn34]

Hello everyone,

I need a little help with the Mobaxterm software, which is regularly requested internally.

I use the package creation wizard

Code: Select all

# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
from setuphelpers import *

uninstallkey = []

def install():
    print('installing cefe_-mobaxterm')
    install_msi_if_needed('MobaXterm_installer_11.0.msi')

If I test the installation, I get an error

Code: Select all

Output::
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "C:\Program Files (x86)\wapt\common.py", line 3328, in install_wapt
    exitstatus = setup.install()
  File "E:\Depots Wapt\cefe_-mobaxterm-wapt\setup.py", line 8, in install
    install_msi_if_needed('MobaXterm_installer_11.0.msi')
  File "C:\Program Files (x86)\wapt\common.py", line 3289, in new_func
    return func(*args,**kwargs)
  File "C:\Program Files (x86)\wapt\setuphelpers.py", line 3783, in install_msi_if_needed
    run(r'msiexec /norestart /q /i "%s" %s' % (msi,props),accept_returncodes=accept_returncodes,timeout=timeout,pidlist=pidlist)
  File "C:\Program Files (x86)\wapt\setuphelpers.py", line 983, in run
    raise CalledProcessErrorOutput(proc.returncode,cmd,''.join(output))
CalledProcessErrorOutput: Command 'msiexec /norestart /q /i "MobaXterm_installer_11.0.msi" ' returned non-zero exit status 1603.
Output:

FATAL ERROR : CalledProcessErrorOutput: Command 'msiexec /norestart /q /i "MobaXterm_installer_11.0.msi" ' returned non-zero exit status 1603.
Output:
Exit code:  3

If anyone has already managed to create this package, I would appreciate any help or information

Thank you and have a good day everyone

Example with the portable version

https://wapt.tranquil.it/package_detail ... 2_all.wapt:

error 1603 with the MSI is quite generic... you should try installing the MSI manually as a system account to see what it says (using psexec for example).
