NSIS installer
I need to create a single windows installer which can install MySql, JDK, Tomcat and deploy a given war file. I am very new to NSIS and installer. Are there already scripts available to do this in a single installer? Is it possible to also detect if a machine is 32 or 64 bit and select the installation accordingly?

Please help..


To learn NSIS, start by examining NSIS\Examples\Example1.nsi and Example2.nsi. Once you understand what every command in those scripts exactly does, you'll be well on your way to creating an installer of your own. Hint, use the command reference: http://nsis.sourceforge.net/Docs/Chapter4.html

As for 32 vs 64 bits, that question has been asked dozens of times. Search the forums please.
