Hi,
I can check .NET version as shown in tutorial:
Then I need to install .NET framework accordingly. As suggested by some
posts, I tried using bootstrapper dotNetInstaller. However this just gives
us an option, whether we want to install .NET or not. The condition check

I really appreciate your help on this but due to time constraints I have
thrown in the towel and written a custom action that works. It simply gets
the INSTALLDIR property, concatenates the exe name and creates a new
process...works every time.
Again, thanks so much...

Hi,
What's the best way to handle information that changes in every build? For
example, the assembly version of my COM registration is different every build
because we auto-increment the minor version number. Is there any best practice
to handle this kind of information?
Thanks a lot,
Sean
You're better off extracting the registration information from the EXE
and using the COM/Registry tables to register the necessary classes.
Its *much* easier and *much* more robust to use the tables for COM
registration than it is to use custom actions.

John,
The 210 is a little misleading, I admit.
Expressed in hexadecimal, 210 = 0xD2
From http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa368071.aspx we can see
that this decodes as follows:
0x80 = Run operation asynchronously
0x40 = Ignore exit code
That leaves us with 0X12 - i.e. 1
Is anyone actively registering event sources with the EventSource element?
I have a need to but the documentation isn't quite clear on the required
EventMessageFile argument. What exactly is that? :)
Anyone have an example that works?
Thanks!

Matthieu,
If I had to guess, I'd say you want to 'install' .NET 2.0 to a particular
website, while having 1.1 running on another?
You can do one of two things:

Unfortunately, there's a bug right now in wixlib references. You can
manually add the reference (not a project reference) and have it work fine.
Like you said, though, I think it stores a hardcoded path, which is a bug.
Adding a .wixlib project reference, however, does not currently work as

As per the tutorial, my custom action is defined as:
This yields a custom action of type 210.

According to the tutorial, the FileKey attribute of the custom attribute is
set to the Id of the file you wish to run so I assume that it is trying to

It certainly is not a silly question and was worth checking. I checked and
the program does not depend on its location. If I install to a non-default
folder I can run the program from its shortcut.
I am starting to think that perhaps this cannot be done as easily as the
tutorial illustr
That would imply a different issue. I would look for your custom action
in the log to see if it is being run.

If your custom action is sequenced after InstallFinalize, then it should
be immediate. The commit and deferred types can only be used between
InstallInitialize and InstallFinalize.

Seems to me you need a custom action in order to specify which exact program
you wish to use to open the file.
So try setting up a custom action to open the file in IE, or whatever.

Give your property an explicit starting value with [EMAIL PROTECTED], which
gets overridden by the
