[WiX-users] GenericRead doesn't work in FileSharePermission
I try to assign GenericRead in FileSharePermission. Somehow it doesn't work. It would create the acct over the share only. However GenericAll works fine. Is it a bug in WIX?

Re: [WiX-users] ps:SnapIn
No.. That would be normal. http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=2034934&group_id=105970&atid=642714 You need to add the Module GUID to the file ID. Wix does a lot of nice things for us, including handling the ID redirection that occurs with modularization. When you refer to your simple Assembly.dll ID, in almost every case Wix will turn that into a properp merged reference. But, the binder variables are missing this step right now, so you need to manually work around by referening the final form. You can cut & paste it from orca, or you can use your module's guid to figure it out yourself. (I highly suggest the Orca route) So, don't mess with your file's declaration, just change your binder variable references. I would suggest going through the archives for this group about binder variables. There are quite a few gotchas involved, and you can make sure you're installing as you expect if you do the reading. :-) Let me know if I can be of any further assistance.

[WiX-users] Service Install Problem
I'm attempting to install a service and receiving the dreaded "1923" error. Along with the service I'm also creating the user that the service will "log on as" in the same install. I then assign the created account and password to my service. The confusing part (to me) is that if I run the install without assigning an account and password to the service, the install is successful. I can then go in to the SCM after the install and assign the account which was just created with the install and the service will start. I'm using XP and am myself a local admin. There was a similar sounding post on the mailing list last year, but it doesn't appear that it was resolved. http://www.nabble.com/Running-Service-under-a-User-Account-tt12879873.html Running Service Under a User Account Below are the specifically involved WIX nodes I'm using (note I removed the guid for space reasons): ... ...

Re: [WiX-users] ps:SnapIn
You're probably facing the same issue I did.. There's currently a bug that binder variables need the fully modularized id in merge modules. I don't know if there's a way to pass this in to SnapIn extension, but you can try modularizing the file key yourself as a workaround.

This needs to be checked before the product is installed. I have a VB script (I know they are evil, but I this is a requirement I can't get around) that checks the database for the specific attributes. If the attributes are not enabled, the script asks the user if they want to enable them and restart the database service. It also checks the SQL Browser service to be sure the start mode is Automatic and that it is started. If not, the user is prompted to change it and start the service. The script works correctly and does exactly what I need it to do. If the user does not want to enable the attributes and restart the service or doesn't want to start the SQL Browser service, the install needs to terminate immediately. The product can not be installed if the database attributes are not enabled or if SQL Browser isn't running. My question: what MSI variable(s) do I set in the VB script so that the installer will abort the install as soon as the script is finished? I have looked in the MSI Properties documentation but can't find any variable that would do that. I would like this to be treated as an error in the install and have the installer go directly to the Finish screen. Thanks for all of your help.

I think it's the /qb uninstall dialog.
But I didn't define it in my wix file, so I cannot find it in Orca.

Re: [WiX-users] Font not correct when uninstall from control panel
No I couldn't be sure but if you look at the dialog in Orca or some sort of
MSIPreviewer & get the dialog name, then go to the Control table & sort the
Dialog_ column, then look for that Dialog name, all the strings being displayed
in the dialog should be there.
If its not, I'm not sure what else I can say
sorry

Thanks for the reply.
Do you know the control's name?
I searched in orca, but cannot find string anywhere.

Re: [WiX-users] Font not correct when uninstall from control panel
I could be wrong but without looking at your MSI, here goes.
The strings you're seeing are probably in the Control table; so you might see
something like
{\WixUI_Font_Bigger}this is my text being displayed
If you have something like that, you can remove or replace the
{\WixUI_Font_Bigger} with something else but the something else will have to
already
exist in TextStyle table
The font being used is probably defined in TextStyle table
Facename is the font so that should be easy to change I guess, but it would
change it everywhere.
The Stylebits I think will control bold/Italic etc but I've never changed that
before directly in an MSI so its only a guess but its someplace to
start.
All of this is defined either in your code or its part of the standard WiX
that's used when building, I guess you'll need to change it there for your
MSI to be as you want it when generated.

[WiX-users] XmlConfig formatting
Hi All, Is there a way from the XmlConfig action to format the XML to put line breaks after the beginning of XML nodes. I know this sounds ridiculous but I have a problem with my app.config file which is a bug in .NET. I am updating the dynamic URL for a few web services I have in app.config using the XmlConfig node. See below for example. The value nodes are left out of the app.config and are added during install, but the problem I have is that after XmlConfig finishes, it looks like this. http://localhost/Service1.asmx http://localhost/Service2.asmx http://localhost/Service3.asmx As you can see the is on the same line as the value node, which in Xml standards it totally fine, but when the application launches, it throws an exception stating 'Unrecognized element 'setting'. Putting a carriage return after the solves the problem which is think is ludicrous on .NET's part.

Re: [WiX-users] updating with a different account? [solved->bug]
Thanks for the suggestion Eitan! At first I thought it didn't work - but it actually does! There seems to be a bug in WiX 3 (or Windows Installer). If the new msi has a different filename than the old one, it fails to find the new package during the install process. It logs the old filename in the log if I include "/L*V". As long as I keep the same names it works though, so for now I'm a happy camper! Is there a more appropriate place to discuss the error than posting extensive logs in this mailing list? /Mattias >Are you using the property ALLUSERS=1 ? >This property will let you do a system-level install instead of per-user. > >Rgrds, > >Eitan - This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ ___ WiX-users mailing list WiX-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/wix-users
