I've created a custom managed bootstrapper using .Net Framework 3.5 SP1. I've
added dotnetfx35.exe as prerequisite. All is working great when Net
Framework 3.5.1 is installed or when it is not installed at all. But all is
going wrong when installed Net Framework 3.5 /without SP1/.
More details:
I’ve been trying to track down why my Wix Project is being relinked every
single time I do a build even though nothing’s changed.
Eventually, I’ve tracked it down to the MFC100 merge modules.
I have wxs file in my project: MFCMerge.wxs that contains this:
?xml version=1.0 encoding=UTF-8?

Dear all,
I have been trying to install different version of Wix with Visual studio 2012:
- 3.6
- 3.7
- 4.0
None of them worked, the Wix templates do not appear in create new project. Is
there something I can do to get a working installation?
Thank you for your help
Edmondo Porcu
I've installed and used WiX 3.6 and 3.7 with both VS 2010 and VS 2012 with no
issues. What flavor of VS 2012 are you using?

Dear John,
I am using Visual Studio Professional 2012 Update 3 Version 11.0.60610.1 Q11REL
I have remarked the following :
- Everything is installed and work correctly in VS 2010
- InstallShield Limited suffers of the same problem. It deletes a template but
fails to create a new one . But
It could well be configuration or flavor. We use VS 2010 and VS 2012 Ultimate
exclusively. I have no experience with VS 2012 Professional. I wouldn't
expect it to be that different (except for test, Lab Manger, etc.). But I
can't verify that either.

Guys,
After going through some of the logs, I decided to use
WixUI_InstallMode property to differentiate the installer from various
modes of installations.
I have a custom action RetrieveCred which should execute only for some
modes of installation.
CustomAction Id=RetrieveCred
Have you tried re-installing after installing VS 2012 Professional? I don't
think the VS 2012 support bits for Votive will get deployed from WiX 3.6 or
later unless VS 2012 is installed at the time.

Since your property is camel case it won't be passed from the InstallUISequence
to the InstallExecuteSequence. In addition to that you will need to set the
Property/@Secure to yes to allow the engine to pass it's value.
In this case, I would think you would need a new property that you define
Yes I did,
How can I see what have gone wrong during setup? I have been reading these
should be the correct log, I have attached them here...
Best regards

I'm testing out WiX 3.8 and VS 2013, and can't find the custom action projects.
Here's what I did:
1. Setup new VM with Windows 8.1.
2. Install .NET 3.5 and all Windows Updates.
3. Install Visual Studio 2013 Ultimate RTM.
4. Install WiX 3.8.1014.0 (weekly build from 10/14).
5. Open Visual
If you are literally applying a patch as you said, then the condition you
need is PATCH.

Although I'm not familiar with the details of the WIX UI settings, I
believe a repair is a repair, a change is adding or removing
I found the same and left a note on Bob's blog post as to such.

Cool. His blog article seemed to say it was done but I'm guessing there's
a distinction between votive and sdk and that if one knew that he'd predict
the custom action projects won't be there yet.
Either way, it let me test my latest IsWiX 2.2 on WiX 3.8 on VS 2013 stack
so it's progress
Ops! Any suggestion?? :)))

We are in the process of converting our old InstallShield projects into
WiX projects (v3.7). One of the last items we have to deal with is
signing. IS has a mechanism to sign all binaries and then the msi. I
don't see an analog in WiX. Did I miss it?
Assuming I didn't...
The proper process
Read in the documentation about overriding the SignCabs and SignMsi targets.
If you're doing Burn, you'll also want to look at overriding SignBundleEngine
and SignBundle.
Patches can also be signed given an appropriate target.

Just for everyone's information: Leaving
Just a note you cannot do a repair of WIX when trying to resolve the issue.
I have had a similar issue and had to uninstall WIX and reinstall WIX on
top of VS 2012.
Order of installation.
1. VS2012
2. WIX 3.x

I have MSIs for which the Product/@Name value includes the version number
(which changes for every build of the project). This results in an entry in
Add/Remove Programs (ARP) that includes the product name and the version
number. The MSI correctly removes the old ARP entry when a major upgrade
That was enough?
Thanks for your help

Did you remember to increment the version of the bundle? Is it the bundle that
is left behind in ARP?

There was a separate bug for templates: http://wixtoolset.org/issues/4093/
That's now fixed and available in WiX v3.8.1021.0.

No, that's not exposed to the BA. Please file a feature request. It can
be additional detail added to the BA manifest.
