AIR Application Installer.exe

On my win xp pro sp3 machine from all the Adobe stuff
following software installed only:
- acrobat reader
- flash player
- shockwave player
The Secunia scan tool noticed me recently I had old version
of flash player.
It is not right, some days ago just upgraded to 9.0.151.0.
Why I am still using the 9.x one see my other thread in the
adobe flash player forum.
In-depth analysis has shown that the old one is indeed
present on my station:
Adobe AIR Application Installer.exe is available on this
machine and it keeps the old and vulnerable version of adobe flash
player.
What for ???????
I didn't ever install the air application installer on my
own.
It must be one of other three applications I'm using
intentionally.
Has the Adobe Flash Player this been ?
If yes, what did he it for ?
Why is nobody upgrading now the vulnerable flash version
attached to AIR ?
How can I deinstall AIR Application Installer ?

Adobe Air Application Installer.exe Documentation

Hello All,
i am having severe problems retrieving the documentation for "Adobe Air Application Installer.exe"
We have applied as Publisher for Air Apps here:
http://www.adobe.com/products/air/runtime_distribution1.html
and filled out the form
http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/mmform/index.cfm?name=air_distribution2
After that we were hoping to receive documentation about seamless install of air applications, but we are waiting right now ...
So, time is running out, and i need the documentation of the "Adobe Air App Installer.exe"
So far i have managed to silently install an air app:
'$1 -silent -programMenu -location "$INSTDIR" "$TEMP\AirApp.air"' $0
Where $1 is the "Adobe Air Installer.exe" retrieved from the registry
$INSTDIR is the installation target path
$TEMP is a temporary folder, containing the to install Air Application
the above command works fine for clean and empty systems with no prior versions of the application installed.
what i now miss are the return code meanings, ranging from 0..9 where i only know that 0 means success !
And i would like to have a documentation about the
-update
and the
-uninstall
parameters for seamless installation/deinstallation of a whole air app with data

hi there,
i got the documentation also, dunno why they make it so hard
to get it
thank you very much !
greets from joymoney

Adobe AIR comes by default with Adobe Reader 9; you can download the AIR-less version from http://download.adobe.com/pub/adobe/reader/win/9.x/9.0/enu/AdbeRdr90_en_US_Std.exe - or just uninstall Adobe AIR (from Add/Remove Programs).
Adobe Flash Player may leave some ActivX remains behind if you don't uninstall before upgrading the Flash Player. You can delete the old OCX file manually.

Adobe Air application installation using the bundled runtime installer

Hello.
We plan to develop application for different platforms with Adobe Air and testing installing Air applications with bundled runtime installer on different platforms. It's ok with Windows and Mac OS, but we got troubles with "silent" installation on Ubuntu OS 9.10.
I tried to install Adobe Air application with bundled runtime, like in this document in part "Silent installation":
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/air/redist/WS485a42d56cd19641-70d979a8124ef20a34b-8000.html
using command-line:
"sudo ./MyInstaller -silent simple-air-air-application-1.0-SNAPSHOT.air"
and installation fails. Installation log looks like this:
[setup:2306][INFO] Runtime Installer begin with version 2.6.0.19140 on Linux x86
[setup:2306][INFO] Commandline is: -silent simple-air-air-1.0-SNAPSHOT.air
[setup:2306][INFO] No installed runtime detected
[setup:2306][INFO] Invoking Application Installer for combined install
[setup:2306][INFO] Launching subprocess with commandline /tmp/air.QMrLZl/build/opt/Adobe AIR/Versions/1.0/Adobe AIR Application Installer -runtime /tmp/air.QMrLZl/build/opt -silent -withRuntime -url file:///tmp/air.QMrLZl/simple-air-air-1.0-SNAPSHOT.air
[setup:2306][ERR] Subprocess app installer failed (-1)
[setup:2306][ERR] Runtime Installer end with exit code 7
P.S. We tried do the same on Linux Mint 10. Everything's fine, application getting installed well.

Thanks for the reply and solution MrSykes.
I uninstalled adobe AIR and ran a file and registry cleaner to delete any left over files and installs.
Then installed the v.15 Adobe AIR beta as recommended.
The cleaners I used (ccleaner & jv16 power tools) did find some temporary install files and remnants of the Video Alchemy install.
Tried the install again and still no installation window displays.
I'm running Windows 7 on my PC and even changed the installation file compatibility to Windows XP service pack 2 to no avail.
Funny that it installed fine on my notebook with Adobe AIR latest version running Windows 7.
I'm watching task manager as I'm attempting the install and videoalchemy.exe has some cpu usage then drops to zero activity.
Then Adobe AIR application Installer starts up then cycles to zero cpu activity.
I'm stumped on this one :-(
Thanks again for investing the time on my behalf.

Stephen

Adobe AIR Application Installation will not start

I purchased a program called Video Alchemy which requires Adobe AIR to run but the installation window will not display and the installation does not start.
The Adobe AIR log install log file can be found here https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/59423416/Install.log
Here is a link to the VideoAlchemy.exe install file https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/59423416/VideoAlchemy.exe
Can anyone help me to get this program to install?

Adobe Air Application Installer on Utilities Folder

I just got my first mac early this year so I still haven't gotten the hang of the Mac OS. Anyway, I installed Adobe Photoshop CS4 a few days back but I uninstalled it a few days after. I noticed when I opened my utilities folder I saw the following:
Adobe Air Applications Installer
Adobe Air Uninstaller
Adobe Installer Folder
Adobe Utilites Folder
I can't remember if the files were there even before I installed the Adobe Photoshop CS4 program. Is it safe for me to remove these files? If it is, how do I remove them? Thanks!

theoc3 wrote:
I clicked the Adobe Air Uninstaller icon in my utilities folder and a pop up box appeared with the message:
"Adobe AIR already installed. This version of Adobe AIR is already installed on your system"
Figures
Just move them to desktop, restart and see if you get any alerts.
Also check in System Preferences for Version Cue and if you have it, turn it off.

Adobe AIR Application Installer command-line

Could someone provide the command-line reference (parameters
and usage) for Adobe AIR Application Installer?
Tks!

Hey Oliver!
I've applied for an AIR distribution license but I still have
some doubts.
My application is based in one .air component and another one
service created using C++. So, in order to install my application,
I need to install both applications. I've used the bundled
installation mentioned in the distribution docs, but it is not the
best solution for my problem. I would like to have just one entry
point in the “Add/Remove Programs” applet.
Is there another way to deliver the .air application (e.g.
not using the Adobe AIR Application Installer)?
For example, is it possible get all files needed to create my
.air file and install them without creating the .air file properly?
I mean, is there any license or technical restrictions that
invalidate this approach?
Thanks!

Need better alternative to Adobe AIR Application Installer

In order to build a double-clickable desktop application,
apparently one has to use the Adobe AIR Application Installer. This
is bad for a few reasons:
It's not scriptable.
It hard-wires the name of the swf file to load into the
generated binary.
For Mac OS X, the "swf launcher" should be a simple "launcher
stub". The name of the swf file to load should be read from the
Info.plist file. If it did this, then the stub could be the same
for all applications. For Windows, there could be a simple XML
config file in the same directory as the app that serves the same
purpose as Info.plist on the Mac.
I hope Adobe addresses this soon.

How about creating your native launcher app with the whole

launches your server executable, then after its done its stuff it
launches the AIR app.
You could make the launcher app itself headless so you don't
get two dock icons.
This doesn't address the need to have a non-GUI alternative to
the Air Application Installer so builds can be completely
automated.
It definitely breaks the drag-and-drop of a file onto the
application's icon.
I never said I have 2 Dock icons. (I already solved that
problem by making the server "faceless" by setting LSUIElement to 1
in the server's Info.plist.)
Why do I want completely automated builds? Aside from the
ease of just being able to type "ant" and press Return, any real
development group has things such that a "build machine"
automatically rebuilds the app (on all platforms) after ever
developer check-in to check for accidental build breakage. Those
builds also become available to QA for them to test.
Ever time some new development tool comes out where the
authors provide a GUI tool (presumably because they think GUI =
easy), I have to wonder, "What were they thinking?" If the authors
are themselves developers, how can they not see how crippling not
providing an all-command-line tool-chain is? Don't all non-trivial
development groups do automated builds as described above? The only
answer I can think of is that some
PHB
somewhere thought it would be a "neat idea" to have an
"easy-to-use" GUI application (because that sells to other PHBs).
As to drag-and-drop: presumably, the swf launcher that gets
generated properly handles drag-and-drop of files onto the
application's icon and Does The Right Thing when it happens (where
"right thing" usually means simply opening the document dropped
onto the icon). Now, since my launcher gets launched instead, that
breaks drag-and-drop unless I implement that functionality myself.
The way I've implemented my launcher is such that, after the
fork(), it's the parent process that exec's itself into the client
thus keeping the original process ID. The hope is that Launch
Services on the Mac, when handling and drag-and-drop event, will
send said event to the original process -- which is now the client
-- and everything Just Works. I have yet to get around to testing
this (I'm busy with other things at the moment); but, if it turns
out that my hope isn't fulfilled, well then I can fall back to
keeping my launcher running to get and forward the OpenDoc
AppleEvents from my launcher to the swf launcher.
So, anyway, back to my original plea: Adobe,
please just give us a command-line replacement for the Air
Application Installer (preferably just a launcher stub that reads
Info.plist). Thanks.

[ubuntu 64bit 9.04] AIR Application Installer Doesn't Work

Hello,
On Ubuntu 9.04 (Jaunty) 64bit, I have installer the Adobe AIR system as follows:
1) Downloaded Adobe AIR from: http://get.adobe.com/air
2) sudo chmod +x AdobeAIRInstaller.bin
3) sudo apt-get install -y ia32-libs lib32nss-mdns lib32asound2 lib32gcc1 lib32ncurses5 lib32stdc++6 lib32z1 libc6 libc6-i386 lib32nss-mdns libcanberra-gtk-module
4) sudo wget http://taurinocerveza.com/scripts/getlibs-all.deb
5) sudo dpkg -i getlibs-all.deb
6) sudo ./AdobeAIRInstaller.bin
7) dpkg -l | grep adobeair
ii adobeair1.0 1.5.1.8210 Adobe AIR
8) Reboot Ubuntu (just for 'fun')
9) From Applications > Acessories --> Selecting "Adobe AIR Application Installer" does nothing ... not even a blip.
10) .airappinstall.log is a zero-length file (did a 'touch ~/.airappinstall.log')
Any ideas? Thanks in advance for the help!

Custom AIR application installer

Hello,
I have one question about air application installation process.
Is there any way to build a custom air application installer?
How it works now:
First I've made air project, and when I start installation process (over badge swf file on the web site), I've going through next steps:
- On the first step I can to open or save installation .air file.
- After I click on the "open" button, I've getting the info about publisher and application, and I have "install" and "cancel" buttons.
- After I click on the "install" button, I've getting more options, about desktop shortcut icon, installation location, and I have "contionue" and "cancel" buttons.
- After I click on the "continue" button, the installation process begins.
Is there any way to put some steps out from the air installation process. For example, to put out the third step?
The best for us would be, if is possible, to integrate all questions in only one Accept or Cancel, make the most simple for user to install. Do you have advice how to do it?
Thank you

Not using a web install badge. What I have done in some cases is a first-run configuration setup UI as part of the app itself.
You can create a custom native installer (not in AIR) for AIR apps using the captive runtime:

Air application installer doesn't always work when Adobe air is already installed

Hi,
I've recieved an adobe air application from another developer. I placed it a web site and tested it. It worked so I considered it complete. However it turns out that it only worked because I didn't have Adobe Air installed.
I've found that there is someone with Adobe Air (same version as me) already intalled from another source and when they click application install button absolutely nothing happens. No error or anything.
However I can revisit the page and click it and it works every time even with adobe air already installed. So I suspect it has something to do with how they've installed it.
Has anyone ever run into this issue and do you know what could be causing it? It is because something is wrong with their installer which leaves it not knowing what to do with an air extension and the whole thing just fails silently?

Hi,
Would it be possible to get the URL to the page that has your AIR badge installer (or the html if it's not publicly viewable)? We'll probably also need further info on the system that's failing, if possible could you post the installer log and check to see if the following file exists:
Win 7:
C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Macromedia\Flash Player\www.macromedia.com\bin\airappinstaller\airappinstaller.exe
Mac
/Users/username/Library/Preferences/Macromedia/Flash Player/www.macromedia.com/bin/airappinstaller/airappinstaller
Please feel free to contact me at [email protected] if necessary.
Thanks,
Chris
