Re: [WiX-users] remote exepackage

No, it is not I am talking about. Remote payload is just an option to verify my exepackage, isn't it? Even if not, it is still trying to find redist/netfx(...) during compile. Can I compile a bootstrapper without that file in order to make a bootstrapper which is designed only for download package

Re: [WiX-users] How to not launch install if previous version not found?

Upgrades are used to find and replace previously installed files. But if there's nothing to replace, there's nothing to say the install can't continue as a fresh install. If you need to not run the installer at all if a previous install isn't there then try using a launch condition

Re: [WiX-users] Data in custom table not being preserved for Server side actions

Sorry, but I'm going to ask a few followup questions: 1. Does your custom action alter the user's computer at all? 2. I see the name NewServerInstance. Is this by any chance creating a website in IIS? 3. Is it necessary to create a custom table over using properties? -- View this message

Hi Nick, Thank you for your reply. I think that is a better fit. I have also thought IExpress and VBScript might be a simpler approach. I admit what I am doing is unusual. I have an old pre-Vista legacy app that used HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE to store product key registration information. Under

Re: [WiX-users] Wix Visual Studio Unused components does not create an error

This is just a guess: when you referenced one component, you created a link between the fragment and the main project. Now the linker will yell at you if it finds anything orphaned in that fragment. On the other hand, when you didn't link anything from the fragment to the project, the linker

So the components in FeatureC can be installed as a standalone feature, but those same components are needed by Features A and B? I'd just include the components in all three features. And don't nest Feature C inside Feature A or B. -- View this message in context:

This may no longer be an option, but an external manifest to that exe would disable its virtualization and make it require elevation. http://blogs.msdn.com/b/patricka/archive/2009/12/09/answers-to-several-application-manifest-mysteries-and-questions.aspx --- Phil Wilson On Tue, May

Re: [WiX-users] The problem with admin rights of custom auctions.

It looks like that's a direct migration from a Visual Studio setup project to WiX. The VS setups don't offer all the features that WiX does, and in this case you probably don't need your own code to copy files. Use the CopyFile element in WiX. Also, you don't need -install types of command lines

Are MSIs allowed to have to have no Product Name? Or is this a case of (like the version numbers) that ICE and other tools validate and yet the WI service doesn't actually care, so all sorts of weird stuff can happen? (I ask because I seem to have encountered such a thing, and the DTF demo

[WiX-users] Use Path from BrowseDlg to Set Registry Value (Not the Install Path)

I'm new to the list (and new to WiX). I've built a few installs, but I have a new one that is giving me fits. Can anyone share with me (or point me to a resource or disabuse me of false notions) how I can set a property (not a Directory property) a user browsed for (it's a mapped drive)? Why
