Post executable hangs during Setup
I have an installation that I've created using the VFP setup wizard. In my setup I run a post-setup executable. The problem I'm having is that my setup and post-setup executable will run fine the first time it's launched. If I try to rerun the setup.exe again on the same machine, the setup runs through initial VFP setup, and begins to run my exe. It runs the main.prg (stuck a message in to verify) and then hangs up without the form showing. If I kill the setup exe, my form then shows and I can continue running form from there. This is the behavior any time I try to rerun the setup (even after a reboot or calling the setup from the applications setup directory). The exe that I'm running post-setup runs just fine if I run it stand-alone. It's only when I specify it in the setup wizard that I have a problem. I originally specified the post-setup exe as a file outside of my \distrib directory. When this didn't work I included the post-setup exe in the distrib folders. Neither works.
I'm running NT4.0 with VFP6 sp3. I can duplicate this same install behavior on another machine running Win98
This executable is a VFP exe with a main.prg which calls a single form that is modal and has showwindow as top level form. I've played with both properties to see if there would be a difference and to the best of my knowledge it didn't matter. I also have SCREEN=OFF in a config.fpw file compiled into the executable.
Any thoughts on what I may be missing here? This is really frustrating. I've spend way too much time on this and now know that I should have invested the money on a real install program
