PA Installer.ini Local Download? **Resolved**

I am trying to use the installer.ini to extract a local file upon installation. I am having a major hassle in the syntax in calling the DownLoadURL from the PA drive. In other words I want it to point to the PA drive/AppName/AppDir/File.zip?

Any Help?

here is the latest Intaller.ini that does not work Sad

[Source]
IncludeInstallerSource=true

[DownloadFiles]

DownloadURL=///"%PAL%":/CasinoBlackJackPortable/App/Data/CSBJ.zip
"

DownloadName=CSBJ.zip
DownloadFileName=CSBJ.zip
DownLoadMD5=46ea7b62718609bf6361368f79e24d53
AdditionalInstallSize=2600
AdvancedExtract1To=
AdvancedExtract1Filter=**

Not Supported

DownloadURL is designed for remote files only. No local files are supported. Things like %PAL% are similarly unsupported by the installer. Please read the PA. Format for complete details on installer.ini.

Sometimes, the impossible can become possible, if you're awesome!

Thanks

I have been reading John

all I saw was

DownloadURL specifies the URL to the file that will be downloaded. It is normally in the form http://example.com/path/filename

But never actually saw my wuestion addressed appreciate the reply
