While looking at issue #964, I stumbled upon a setup problem. On my computer the msi file won't be installed.
It turned out, that
powershell.exe -Command "Start-Process msiexec.exe -verb runas -Wait -ArgumentList '/I ${windows_path_to_package}\aws-*-windows.msi /quiet'"
won't work on my computer, because the asterix sign*
inaws-*-windows.msi
won't be replaced by the version number. There may be another way to solve, like with\"\"
instead of''
, but I liked Carstens way of using ${windows_path_to_package} as this also worked for me, so I only modified it a bit.
