hi friends,
It is found that in case of installer created using BASIC MSI project, while running installer in GUI and silent mode, there is a difference in logging contents created for the both type of installations

For Ex: If a shortcut is creatd in installer with name Shortcut1
Then in case of GUI installation while calling customaction
CreateShortcut ,it is logged additionally that "Shortcut1 is being registered"
But this statement is missing in Silent installation.It just logs "Create Shortcut is called"

I have given in Setup.ini file
CommandLine=/l* %temp%\test.log
to enable logging.

Please confirm me whether this is default behaviour of installer or is thr any setting to make GUI andsilent installations to log similarly


thanks in advance,
mohan

I presume that silent installation logging may not be different to normal installation - except Client details(UI Level) . Client details will not be stored in logging.
