Not using the standard Windows Installer UI. ScrollableText controls
don't have that sort of functionality.
You'd need to write your own UI replacement to achieve that.

Hi Guys,
Our product installer currently is WIX 2.0 and we are thinking of moving to Wix
3.0. Is it possible to do that in a patch or we have to do in a minor upgrade
as there must be huge changes between wix 2.0 and wix 3.0.
Thanks

Hi all,
I searched around and didn't find this anywhere, so here goes: I have

Hi,
I am attempting to install a windows service with wix but keep getting the
following error:
Service 'MyService' (MyService) could not be installed. Verify that you have
sufficient privileges to install system services.
I have attempted as normal user, full admin user, but still
If you don't specify a user it gets installed as the SYSTEM user, and in this
case it should work.
If you need to specify a different user then things get diffcult. I looked at
this a few years ago
on XP (at the time Vista wasn't out yet, so who knows what happens there) and
if I remember
I figured it out. Deep down in the comments on one of Peter Marcu's Blog posts
about patching:
The PatchFamily filters on components and the fragments they are contained
within. E.g. if you reference a component that [is] contained within a fragment

Your question doesn't make sense. WiX 2.0 and WiX 3.0 are releases of
the WiX toolset which you use to build MSIs (product installers) - WiX
is not a product installer. To move from one to the other you just
upgrade the WiX toolset on your build machine, following the
instructions with the new
We've already upgraded the installer sources and built the MSI (using WIX 3.0)
and wanted to know if we can release a patch (MSP) that targets the MSI (built

upgrade or a major upgrade but to decide we wanted to know

First, sorry for my bad english (may be..).

I have the following in my .wxs file now,
DirectoryRef Id=DesktopFolder
Component Id=mVPClientDesktopShortcut
Guid=147FC92C-AC01-4CD1-A2AB-A0B889A2E12E
CreateFolder/
RegistryValue Root=HKCU Key=Software\Solarsoft\mVP\Client
Name=DesktopShortcut
Are your properties public, meaning are their Ids uppercase? If they're not,
they won't pass from the UI to the Execute phase.
example:
Control
Id=myCheckbox
Type=CheckBox
CheckBoxValue=my value
X=50
Y=50
Height=10
Width=150
Text=Check the box please.
Add the ComboList=yes attribute to the control. Also, you may want to add
Sorted=yes. Hope that helps.

Oh, thanks!
I was not know about uppercase=public rule for msi properties.
I have changed properties' names, used in custom action to uppercase and it
works right.

just put 32-bit components in the 32-bit file system.
Fortunately in this case that is an option. Are there any
recommendations on exactly where these components should go?
We give the user a choice of install location for our 64-bit
components, which defaults to Program Files\Product Name.
ALLUSERS=2 is a valid setting.
Yes, ALLUSERS=2 is valid in general, but I'm interested to know why my
installer was perfectly happy with it - even when the source file
contained:
Condition Message=...ALLUSERS=1/Condition

That's also possible with fragments and ComponentGroupRef.

Hi,
I have written a msi installer, which installs three services. It work
fine, but it does not stops/removes these services when I uninstall this
installer from windows server 2008.
Is anybody have any idea ?
Is there any way using WIX, to know that a particular service is running
or not.
ServiceControl Id='MyServiceControl' Name='MyServiceExeName'
Start='install' Stop='both' Remove='uninstall' /
mean: start the service on install, remove the service when the product is
uninstalled, and stop the service both on install and uninstall.
Refer to ServiceControl Element in Wix help
This is not working on Windows server 2008, while un-installtion.
