[WiX-users] SQLExtension create database and access denied error
Hello, I'm trying to define a new SQL database using Wix, that has its files (MDF and LDF) in a specific folder (ideally in the user's documents and settings, but this is another story) The thing is when I use the snippet : . I get the following error when launching the MSI file CreateDatabase: Error 0x80040e14: failed to create to database: 'MyDatabase', error: CREATE FILE encountered operating system error 5(Access denied.) while attempting to open or create the physical file 'C:\Program Files (x86)\MyCompany\MyApp\MyDatabase.mdf'. I'm using Vista 64 bits and the MSI file is a 32bits one (but I've got the same when using the 64bits one) I wonder if there is a way to create theses files (mdf and ldf) in a folder that is not the default one (C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL.1\MSSQL\Data) Thank you Crusty Applesniffer -- Let Crystal Reports handle the reporting - Free Crystal Reports 2008 30-Day trial.

[WiX-users] WixUI_Advanced flavor and 64 bits folder
Hello, I wonder if there isn't a bug in "WixUI_Advanced" flavor with 64bits. The suggested folder in the destination folder dialog is "C:\Program Files (x86)\My App" but when I change the flavor into WixUI_InstallDir (and set the WIXUI_INSTALLDIR property), the suggested folder is the right one ("C:\Program Files\My App") Did I miss another property ?

[WiX-users] ClickThrough newbie question: How to use it ?
Hello, I'm wondering how to use the ClickThrough feature. When I start the CT user interface, it asks me for a "path to directory that contains your built isolated application" My application is made of 3 services and 2 user interfaces (all is distributed through a .msi file built with Wix) What path should I put in the text field ? the setup path or one of my .exe paths ? Moreover I do not understand how my application (services and user interfaces) could check there is a new version available. I've already read the ClickThrough Project vision (http://wix.sourceforge.net/ctvision.html) and any other information is welcome. Thanks.

[WiX-users] Wix 3.0 and xxxFailureActionType (service installation)
Hello, I'm using Wix3.0 and trying to define, during installation process, the default actions to be done when a service fails. http://schemas.microsoft.com/wix/UtilExtension"; FirstFailureActionType="restart" SecondFailureActionType="runCommand" ThirdFailureActionType="reboot" RestartServiceDelayInSeconds="10" ProgramCommandLine= "[INSTALLLOCATION]\App.exe" ResetPeriodInDays="7" /> ... I'm facing 2 issues: * "reboot" as FailureActionType seems to crash the installation (not the wix compilation) * How can I define the path of the app to run when one of the xxxFailureAction is set to "runCommand"? [INSTALLLOCATION]\App.exe is used "as is" no "translation". Thank you for your feedback. Crusty Applesniffer. - This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.

Re: [WiX-users] How to declare optional - but exclusive - components?
Sorry, If user selects "Service N°2" during installation, "Service N°1" feature will be unselected. If user selects "Service N°1" during installation, "Service N°2" feature goes back to unselected (I hope it is clearer, sorry) Bob Arnson wrote: > Crusty Applesniffer wrote: > >> I'm using Wix3.0 and I wonder if there is a way to declare two >> components that can not be installed for the same feature. >> I mean how can I have: >> (x) Feature 1 >> (x) Component A >> ( ) Component B >> >> that automatically changes to : >> (x) Feature 1 >> ( ) Component A >> (x) Component B >> >> when the user selects component B (and vice-versa) >> >> > > It's not clear what you're looking for.
