[edit] MySQL Connector/ODBC 5.1
<package id="myodbc" name="MyODBC connector" revision="3" reboot="false" priority="5" > <check type="uninstall" condition="exists" path="MySQL Connector/ODBC 5.1" /> <install cmd="msiexec /qn /i %SOFTWARE%\myodbc\mysql-connector-odbc-5.1.5-win32.msi " /> <upgrade cmd="msiexec /qn /i %SOFTWARE%\myodbc\mysql-connector-odbc-5.1.5-win32.msi " /> <remove cmd="msiexec /qn /x{29042B1C-0713-4575-B7CA-5C8E7B0899D4}" /> </package>
[edit] If you were beta testing earlier 5.1 versions prior to 5.1.5
install/upgrade of 5.1.5 fails if earlier (eg 5.1.4) version is installed, so we do a remove first by adding these:
<install cmd="msiexec /qn /x{29042B1C-0713-4575-B7CA-5C8E7B0899D4}" ><exit code="0"/><exit code="1605" /></install> <upgrade cmd="msiexec /qn /x{29042B1C-0713-4575-B7CA-5C8E7B0899D4}" ><exit code="0"/><exit code="1605" /></upgrade>
[edit] Setting up an ODBC DSN
dummy.reg is HKLM\SOFTWARE\ODBC\ODBC.ini\dummy exported via regedit on a machine with the appropriate DSN defined.
<package id="mysql_dummy" name="My Dummy ODBC Connection" revision="2" reboot="false" priority="4" > <depends package-id="myodbc" /> <depends package-id="reg" /> <!-- Windows 2000 doesn't come with reg.exe, hence this dependency --> <check type="registry" condition="exists" path="HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\ODBC\ODBC.INI\dummy" /> <install cmd="regedit /s %SOFTWARE%\myodbc\dummy.reg " /> <install cmd='reg.exe add "HKLM\SOFTWARE\ODBC\ODBC.INI\ODBC DATA SOURCES" /v dummy /t REG_SZ /d "MySQL ODBC 5.1 Driver" /f ' /> <upgrade cmd="regedit /s %SOFTWARE%\myodbc\dummy.reg " /> <upgrade cmd='reg.exe add "HKLM\SOFTWARE\ODBC\ODBC.INI\ODBC DATA SOURCES" /v dummy /t REG_SZ /d "MySQL ODBC 5.1 Driver" /f ' /> <remove cmd="reg.exe del HKLM\SOFTWARE\ODBC\ODBC.INI\dummy /f" /> <remove cmd='reg.exe del "HKLM\SOFTWARE\ODBC\ODBC.INI\ODBC DATA SOURCES" /v dummy /f ' /> </package>
[edit] Reg.exe for Windows 2000
reg.exe isn't bundled with Windows 2000 by default, it is only available as a download or as part of the Windows 2000 Resource Kit. This copies reg.exe into place so it can be used in the above:
<package id="reg" name="Reg.exe" revision="1" reboot="false" priority="99" > <check type="file" condition="exists" path="%WINDIR%\system32\reg.exe" /> <install cmd='xcopy /Q /R /Y "%SOFTWARE%\reg.exe" "%WINDIR%\system32\" ' /> </package>
[edit] Mysql Tools 5.0
<package id="mysql_gui_tools" name="MyODBC GUI Tools" revision="1" reboot="false" priority="4" > <check type="uninstall" condition="exists" path="MySQL Tools for 5.0" /> <install cmd="msiexec /qn /i %SOFTWARE%\myodbc\mysql-gui-tools-5.0-r17-win32.msi " /> <upgrade cmd="msiexec /qn /i %SOFTWARE%\myodbc\mysql-gui-tools-5.0-r17-win32.msi " /> <remove cmd="msiexec /qn /x{FCB10DE3-E190-4A7E-B06A-FAC61567ABFC}" /> </package>
