Only .exe gets distributed to the dp

[Morpheus]

Hello,

 

I created a new application which gets installed by a setup.exe with some commands

setup.exe /silent /norestart /loadinf="inf/custom.inf"

The file structure looks like:

+ Application [Folder]
    + setup.exe [File]
    + inf [Folder]
        + custom.inf [File]

The content source is pointed at the application folder.

When i install this application via the Software Center the content gets downloaded into ccmcache. But only the setup.exe. No inf-Folder and file. Consequently I get an error because the inf-file doesn't exist.

 

Why? What is wrong? I don't get it!

Stupid question but did you preform the fix IIS that allow INFs to be downloaded?

Om nope... hadn't thought at IIS yet.

Is this a HotFix oder only a specification from a Mime-type?

No there is no hotfix for this. You need to edit the config file to adjust the file types. Personally I remove all of them including all directories too.

.ascx
.master
.skin
.browser
.sitemap
.config
.cs
.csproj
.vb
.vbproj
.webinfo
.licx
.resx
.resources
.mdb
.vjsproj
.java
.jsl

.mdf
.ldf
.ad
.dd
.ldd
.sd
.adprototype
.lddprototype
.exclude
.refresh
.compiled

.INF extension is only mentioned here:

<mimeMap fileExtension=".inf" mimeType="application/octet-stream" />

but in this section .exe is also listed.
