Hi,
I have a features structure like
RootFeature
--- ParentFeature1
--- Feature11
--- Feature12
ParentFeature2
--- Feature21
--- Feature22
And I installed the product using this command ( silent installation )
Msiexec /i product.msi /qn
Hi (again)
I tried to set the PACKAGE_NAME property as a command line parameter when
running my msi. I have set the property to MyDir and there exists a path
c:\Geodata\index\mydir on the computer that the msi is executet on.
The parameter is set but I get an error: Could not access network
Hello,
I try to push a commandline given parameter from my setup to one of my
mergemodules with a custom action. This parameter should trigger a custom
action from the mergemodule.
However, in the log, the property for the parameter in main setup is shown and
set correctly in the msi logfile,

IIRC you should use underscores there instead of hyphens.
I don't think that it is possible to read an XML file from Binary stream
directly, but you can use a custom action (C++ DLL) that extracts data from
binary stream to a temp folder, reads it, and sets MSI properties
accordingly. It's not directly related to WiX though, but could be handy for

Hi,
the extra space came from cp into MS-Outlook, I can't determine why it does
so...
Well the underscores are correct, another problem I had was that some letters
in the GUID where small ones in the product-tag.
No it works, thank you all.

Hi WiX-Users
Recently we have migrated from wixv2 to wixv3 toolset. In our MSI, we have two
COM dlls for registering these two DLLs, we were using wixv2's smoke.exe
auto-generated registry entries, in wixv3, we are using wixv3's Heat.exe
generated registry entries.

A colleague of mine was making some automated WiX scripts, and needed
some way to make scripts for .NET assemblies that are to be installed
in the GAC, and registered as COM objects.
He ended up making some modifications to Tallow in order to get things
working the way he needed.

I am checking whether .Net 1.1 is installed or not and if the .Net 1.1 is not
installed, I will throw an error message and give the user the option to
download the .Net 1.1 package automatically by creating a custom Action using
VBScript. If the user clicks OK button, I will run the
I believe that this sort of thing is best done with a bootstrap program,
before starting the Windows Install process, not with a Custom Action
during the install.
There are many bootstrap possibilities, including one included with
Visual Studio. I like the .dotNetInstaller program, which is open

It probably won't get incorporated into WiX v2 but I'd suggest using the

Heat only records what the DLL's DllRegisterServer function writes to the
registry. Fix the DLL, or stop relying on reverse-engineering the registry
settings. If you're coding in C++ you know what the registry settings should
be. Heat is intended for toolchains where you don't have that control

This is a general question related to the Component / tag.
If I were to set the Transitive flag within the Component / to yes would it
reevaluate the conditional at the time of uninstall or is it only on Modify and
installation that it looks at the Transitive flag?
Thanks
