How do you measure the number of successful installs?
PS: Sorry for the mess, I'm cleaning up right now and this next build should
be much better.

Frankly, with multi-lingual UI support (especially
multiple preference levels in Vista - see GetSystemPreferredUILanguages) you
probably shouldn't do this at all. Allow any version to install on any system.
Allow multiple versions to be installed side-by-side, or move to a single binary
Hello,
I am trying to install a service that runs under non-Local System
account, but under a user account that my WiX script create.
I have spent several hours to determine why the service can't be started
under the account that MSI creates. The reason is that it didn't have

I have a need to register an assembly in the GAC and in
machine.config but I only want to do this if the user has chosen that option.
I would like to add a custom installer dialog to present these options but am
not sure how to customize the mondo dialog set in wixui. The examples
Hi,
Does this mean that users are not supposed to use the INSTALLDIR
variable in their custom actions?
But this is a windows installer variable (supposed to set by the windows
installer service itself) and it should be safe to use it.
What is the reason this is not a recommended step not to use
Thanks

For your problem you could simply use a
ComponentSearch tofind the component that contains the assembly.
Still, I don't like the idea of registering the component using regasm, it still
seems far too fragile.

All,I have searched high and low for information regarding the ODBCDataSource element. The only thing I can find is a posting on this list. From that post, I created the following Code in a component: ODBCDataSource Id=SMSHistoryDSN DriverName=SQL Server Name=SMS-3000 History SQL
Hi,I've been using WiX for a while now and I'd like to contribute more. However, since most community projects are moving to Subversion, it would be nice if WiX was using subversion as well. Subversion is a much better source repository. Source Forge has a nice easy script to update the repository
If Votive is a stumbling block, I hope you'll consider that
some users are interested in a new,
stable WiX release without
particularly caring about Votive. At least this one is. :-)

Title: Setting sidtype on a service
Im installing a service and after installing it I need to set the sidtype (sc sidtype srvName UNRESTRICTED if done from the cmdline). Ive looked thru the v2.x schema on ServiceInstall and I dont see where I can set it. Does WIX support setting this value?

That's fine, I was just more curious than anything. You never told
me (or I just forgot) how you determined which releases were good to go to
Title: Setting sidtype on a service
Right now I think the only way will be to use a DLL custom action to call ChangeServiceConfig2 with the SERVICE_CONFIG_SERVICE_SID_INFO parameter and a SERVICE_SID_INFO structure with the dwServiceSidType member set to SERVICE_SID_TYPE_UNRESTRICTED.
