[WiX-users] localised service accounts

2014-05-14 Thread Colin Burnell
I have a couple of WIX projects that start install and start services. As I need the installers to work on non-English machines, I have been using WixQueryOsWellKnownSID properties to provide localised account names for the services. But I have obviously got something wrong; because although

Re: [WiX-users] Which is best to use in my case: XmlFile or XmlConfig?

Okay do you have a small example of using XmlConfig to create and set the value of a key, as I was also trying XmlConfig and I did not get any errors, but it did not do anything to the .config file? Thanks. -- View this message in context:

[WiX-users] Building installer with WixUI_Mondo fails with culture fi-FI

2014-05-14 Thread Janne Rantala
Hi, I've tried creating installer based on WixUI_Mondo dialog set. My setup is pretty simple, basically I've just added ui reference to WixUI_Mondo. This works very nicely until I create localization file with culture fi-FI. After that I'm getting exception light.exe(0,0): error LGHT0001:

Found the resolution of my problem, if interesting. If you are making a bootstrapper, you should override ResolveSource event in your bootstrapper, like ResolveSource(object sender, ResolveSourceEventArgs e) { if (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(e.DownloadSource)) {

I'd install the patch creating a verbose log, if you've not already done so, and verify that the values of the other properties in the expression are as expected. If it's deferred then it must be after InstallInitialize, so it will be after CostFinalize as required. Your original post also asked

I know this is a little off the subject, but are you the original author of the WiX File? In either case, you need to spend some time Renaming or at least commenting the code so that people working after you know what Feature AAA installs. Same with BBB etc. In some Cases decoding

Thanks, I've stumbled upon that solution earlier but decided not to use it at that time. I'm pretty happy with having two separate msi installers if I could only make that Finnish version to work. If there won't be any quick solutions for my problem I'll take another look at that single installer.

Hi Phil, Correct me if I'm wrong, but as far as I've been able to tell with MsiProcessMessage() it doesn't just send a message to the installer; it actually causes an error dialog to be shown (if you set the error property). What I would *really* want to achieve here is to catch that message in

Re: [WiX-users] Displaying custom error messages if deferred CA fails [P]

2014-05-14 Thread Phil Wilson
MsiProcessMessage (and I assume also the managed WiX equivalent session.message) is more versatile than just error messages. It will show information messages, let you manage the progress bar from a CA, write your own logging into the MSI log etc. You will never see any strange messageboxes

This .wxl file is an oddball, being the only one that I see that uses these UI elements to resize controls from a localization file. Bob Arnson wrote a blog about it here: http://www.joyofsetup.com/2012/07/14/localizing-more-than-strings-in-wix-v3-6/ And the bug that led to adding the UI

Hi Phil, I'll have to look into MsiSetExternalUI() some more. It sounds like exactly what I'm looking for. What I meant about the message box in my previous message was just what I read on MSDN about MsiProcessMessage(): To display a message box with push buttons or icons, use OR-operators to
