Hi,

I'm having problems running two out of a series of applications within a install. These fail to run and report an error that "there are no child processes to wait for".

Has anyone else seen this error or have any idea how to solve this?

Thanks, Celia.

And yes, before you ask, these exes do run outside the install program.

Thanks, Celia.

How are you calling these other installs?  Through DoInstall or LaunchAppAndWait?

I was using LaunchAppAndWait as the problem applications did not have an inx file.

However I found that the problem was solved if I did a ChangeDirectory to the directory in which the application exists and then ran it.

Thanks, Celia.

Yeah, I can see that fixing it.  After all, some installs are picky.  :)
