need help regarding the installer with serialkey check
Hai,

With some knowledge , i tried an approach of building installer with with 3 steps in process.

first, checking for the active internet connection and will abort the process without connection.

secondly,checking the ip address of the client system to be within the required IP address range.On success need to move to serialkey check.

Here user needs to enter the given serial key and will check over the server after posting the key.But for time being only comparing locally.Installer is working until IP address check and the serial keycheck is not working. Please help me out


I am posting the code below:

You can't have Call SerialPageShow in there.
To skip the PassDialog page, call Abort in it's show function.

Hello Stu,

I had removed the call serial page from that section. Here the problem is that the installer is that starting with IPcheck and directly going on with installation process.

I need to go serialkey check after the success of IP Check only. On success of serialCheck installation process should start.Will those functions need to be called from any other sections?

thanks,

Like I said, to skip a custom page call Abort in it's show function. You cannot call these functions yourself, but only let NSIS call them using the Page instruction.

Hello Stu,

Thanks alot..i changed the code and got minor problem where the order of checking is changed.

As i said first want to check with internet connection check and IP range from which needs to go for serialkey check.But installer starts with serial keycheck and on success of check going for IP check followed by installation.

changed code is below:

!include MUI.nsh
!include LogicLib.nsh
!include defines.nsh
!include sampleIP.nsh

; MUI Settings
!define MUI_ABORTWARNING
!define MUI_ICON "${NSISDIR}\Contrib\Graphics\Icons\orange-install.ico"

So you want to first validate the user's IP address and then ask them for the serial?

Right. I see you've put your IP address check in a section... Sections are executed on the InstFiles page, which you have after your custom page.

You need to move it into the custom page function. Also, you've got ${If} ${Errors} in there, but no ClearErrors before you call the ValidateIP function.

Hello Stu,

Thanks alot, Could you please tell me how to write an .ini file for that IP check section for changing in to custom page.


Thanks.

You want the user to enter their IP address or something?

Stu

19th July 2007 22:38 UTC

No.. user will not enter any IP address. I am trying to get their IP address using Internet plugin and comparing that with required range by calling the validationIP function written in .nsh file.

So can you give some idea regarding how to change in to IPcheck section in to custom page.


Thanks alot

You don't need a custom page then if you don't want any user input. Just put it in the show function of your serial page.

No problem. If you need any modifications or if you have any suggestions for the PassDialog plug-in let me know.
