Creating Web-Based Installations With WebDeploy
Example:
Upload Sample3.msi to http://www.Sample3.com/downloads
3. If the installation will pre-install any Windows Installer or .NET runtimes, use an FTP
client to upload the following files:
•If you specified a 9x Download URL on the WebDeploy page, upload the file
InstMsi.exe to that Web address.
•If you specified a NT Download URL on the WebDeploy page, upload the file
InstMsiW.exe to that Web address.
•If you specified a .NET Runtime URL on the WebDeploy page, upload the .NET
Framework file dotnetfx.exe to that Web address. Likewise, if you specified a
.NET Update URL, upload the .NET Framework update file to that Web address.
If you do not have a copy of the appropriate runtime file, use the Download
Redistributables wizard. See Downloading Redistributable Files on page 39.
4. Distribute the installation media or notify your end users of the Web link to the .EXE.
