Original.sxp Archive File

The original.sxp file specifies settings for installing and removing a packaged product on the target computer by running its original setup.exe or uninstall.exe program. Because the installation and uninstallation process is to run without user interaction, you must specify one or more response files to answer the questions asked by the setup or uninstallation program.

You must create the original.sxp file manually.

The original.sxp archive file contains the following sections:

ResponseFiles

Contains path names for the response files.

ScriptFiles

Specifies scripts that modify response files.

Actions

Contains program calls for installation and uninstallation. The program call under Install is executed during installation, and the program call under Deinstall is executed during uninstallation of the product. If the installation is incorrect, the program specified through ErrInstall is executed.

Note: Both 64-bit and 32-bit programs can be launched from the original.sxp archive file.
