SetErrorLevel : getting the values

Nniol · 14th December 2006, 10:15

Hi

I use SetErrorLevel to return error codes from my installer

e.g.
!define ERROR_NOT_ALL_PREREQS_INSTALLED 100

Call CheckPrereqs ;
StrCmp $NumPreReqsFound "5" checkDLLExistance MessageBox MB_OK
SetErrorLevel ${ERROR_NOT_ALL_PREREQS_INSTALLED}
; Not all pre reqs installed
Return

How to I get hold of the Error level?

NSIS documentation 4.9.7.1 GetErrorLevel

Sorry, I want to see the error level after the installer has finished.

So I do a remote install, which is Silent and I want to know the result of the install, 0 for success or, I assume, the value of any call made to SetErrorLevel to inform me of the failure reason

Create .bat file to run your installer and acho %ERRORLEVEL% to get the installers errorlevel.

code:
Example:



@echo off

C:\path\myinstaller.exe

echo ErrorLevel: %ERRORLEVEL%

PAUSE

Edit: I don't know if it will work with remote install, but you can also create a launcher with NSIS for you installer. With ExecWait you can get the errorlevel.
