Exec not working in NSIS installer -
i new nsis trying execute executable while installation similar pre request. tried below code copies exe installation path not executing it.
section "example" example setoutpath "$instdir" file "setup.exe" exec "$instdir\setup.exe" bringtofront sectionend
the answer seki correct, i'd add correct syntax exec/execwait always exec '"c:\path\app.exe" param1 "par am2" param3'
parameters of course optional path app should quoted, not because in case $instdir contain spaces @ least on win9x fail no matter if don't quote (according nsis manual)
if spaces/lack of quotes not issue there couple of other things might want into:
- $outdir working directory new process (setoutpath sets this)
- missing dll's etc (check process monitor)
