[WiX-users] Upgrading old installer

So I have created a nice new installer using WiX for my customer complete with nice shiny new custom bootstrapper and everyone was happy. Rejoicing in the death of their old buggy Visual Studio based installer. However I have struck a problem. There are a number of user configurable config files

Re: [WiX-users] WiX Installer - Copy folder from DVD to HDD and then run bootstrapper from HDD folder

What you're describing is vaguely similar to how we do things. There's a single server in each of our locations that contains MSIs that are installed on other systems in that location across the network. I just package the client MSIs in a bigger MSI, and install the bigger MSI on the server.

Re: [WiX-users] WiX 3.5 projects don't load properly with new Perforce plugin for vs2010

Thanks for looking at this - Downgrading the p4 client cannot be done in this case because the newer p4 server requires the new one. BUT! The good news is that I figured it out. You must manually edit the wixproj file: replace this: SccProjectNameSAK/SccProjectName

Re: [WiX-users] WiX 3.5 projects don't load properly with new Perforce plugin for vs2010

Does downgrading your client bring you back to a working state? If so, time to talk to Perforce. The P4 client for all versions of VS = 2010 have been... touchy from my experience (this pain stretches all the way back to 2001). I've never fully embraced them until 2012 when they finally got

Re: [WiX-users] WiX Installer - Copy folder from DVD to HDD and then run bootstrapper from HDD folder

You probably figured this out, but in thinking about it, you just need to create a SetupPackage (msi or Bundle/msi) which deploy the AppPackage (bundle or msi). The SetupPackage, deploys the files in the output folder of the AppPackage and sets PermissionsEx on the targeted folder, and then

Well unfortunately there are a lot of config files. but the simple answer is no most will be either left alone or changed by the application. The ones changed by the application i am not worried about as they will stay it's the others that have the problem. As a side note I know I don't have

[WiX-users] Weird behavior of heat creating the COM registration output on a Win12 R2 Standard 64-bit system

Hi, We have updated our build machines to a new OS (Win12 R2 Standard 64-bit) and also switched source control to TFS. The used WiX version is 3.7. Now that we are finally using the output from those new machines, we isolated a difference in the created installers that is manifesting as a COM

Re: [WiX-users] Upgrading old installer

So you want to leave the old config file there? Will your new installer configure the new config file and maintain it from there on? On Wed, Jan 28, 2015 at 8:15 AM, Kraygsoft craig.ree...@kraygsoft.com wrote: Anyone -- View this message in context:

Re: [WiX-users] FW: Burn error with document folder on network location (works fine running only the msi)

Not only do mapped drive letters belong to a user, but impersonated custom actions do not load the user's profile, so trying to access that user's documents folder from code will fail unless you arrange to use the appropriate Windows Installer property, probably AppDataFolder. In other words using
