    To specify a custom path, you should run something similar to the following:

    msiexec /i ASPAJAXExtSetup.msi INSTALLDIR=d:\temp\AtlasInstallDir

    Note the omission of the brackets around the parameters passed to msiexec.

    The instructions at http://ajax.asp.net/docs/InstallingASPNETAJAX.aspx are incorrect.  The parameter name is "INSTALLDIR" and not "INSTALLPATH".  I'll work on getting that fixed.

    Thanks,

    Check out Rick Strahls blog - he poutlines alot of issues he had to overcome with Vista - I would guess that the issue is with Vista and how it handles the security features.  It could be possible that defender (that comes standard on Vista right?) or the security settings - I personally experienced alot of issues trying to install apps within Vista prior to configuring to have Vista just ignore all the issues and give me the rights as an actual administrator without the hassles of 'run as administrator' ....here is a link of his Vista articles which hopefully will assist:

     OK, i tried that..  now my install file reads like this:

    E:\Windows\System32\msiexec /i ASPAJAXExtSetup.msi INSTALLDIR=e:\temp\AtlasInstallDir

    unfortunately, it did EXACTLY the same thing as before, i am still unable to install this.

    as for the post above about vista and security, i am aware of those issues.  i have disabled user account control, i am running as local administrator, and when i run the batch file, i right click and select run as administrator.  still, no luck.

    I am beginning to suspect it has something to do with the fact that the installer does NOT ask me where i want to put the files, and blithely puts them in C:\ which, for all intents and purposes does nothing since i am no longer using the C drive for windows.  Even when i put the installdir to e: it seems it's installing it on C anyway.

    any help?

    Some feedback on Atlas: Maybe will work:

    Installing ASP.NET AJAX (code-name 'Atlas') July CTP on Windows Vista

    You will most likely run into an error if you run the AtlasSetup.msi on Windows Vista RC1 or higher.  The error happens during the step where the Visual Studio templates are installed.  I'm not sure exactly what the root cause is, but there is a workaround. 

    "Run as administrator..."

    However, when you right click the AtlasSetup.msi file this option does not show up in the context menu.  To work around this, start the Visual Studio 2005 Command Prompt using "Run as administrator..." (you can use the standard command prompt if you prefer).  Launch the AtlasSetup.msi from the command prompt and the installation will work.  Hope this helps.

    Not sure if that is the issue - but on some of the forums for Vista - deleting all of the temp files where they were downloaded and doing again seemed to work....

     

    If it is failing on the MSI however - there should be an error in your Event Log under the Applications tab - can you tell us what it is?
