Import SSL certificate by certutil in InstallShield










0















I have a function as below :



function LONG ImportSSL(hMSI) 
STRING exeDir;
STRING sslDir;
NUMBER nvSize;
LONG ret;
begin
nvSize = 256;
MsiGetProperty (hMSI, "SETUPEXEDIR", exeDir, nvSize);
sslDir = exeDir ^ "ssl\myCertificate.pfx";
ret = LaunchAppAndWait(WINDIR, "certutil -f -p "" -importpfx "" + sslDir + """, WAIT);
if (ret != 0) then return ret; endif;

return 0;
end;


by running Setup.exe as below:



MySetup.exe /v"/l*v c:SetupLog.log"



I see the below error in log file :




CustomAction ImportSSL returned actual error code 1603 (note this may not be 100% accurate if translation happened inside sandbox)
Action ended 16:25:25: ImportSSL. Return value 3.




but when I execute certutil -f -p "" -importpfx "C:myCertificate.pfx" by command prompt there is no any error , and that certeficate imported into IIS.



How can I know the details of error?



Any help will be truly appreciated.

The problem solution will depend on the following: 1)Is certificate file being delivered by the installer, or is it supposed to be present on the target machine? Check that the installer delivers it as a permanent file, or support file (in [SUPPORTDIR]), or if the file really exists; 2) where this custom action is located? Normally actions like that should be placed after InstallFinalize.

  • Thank you for your answer, I have added that certificate file in Support Files in Disk1 so it is located in Setup.exe dir, but about that action I also defined an action in InstallScript under Behavior and Logic, and made a related custom action mapped to that main action in InstallScript at the end in User Interface Sequence it will be executed after all actions.
