Hello again. I had the opportunity to test this on a virtual machine, and including the SelfRegModules action solved the problem. Now it seems that everything is being registered. About the 2008 runtime msi. It doesn't work for me because we're using the activex viewer from crystal XI and its

[WiX-users] The whole update maze in MSI

2007-11-02 Thread Marc Scheuner
Folks, I'm trying to do this: * Install MyApp v1.0 into a custom directory (e.g. X:\wacky\weirdo\MyApp) * Later, install an update (to v1.01 or v1.1) that picks up where my v1.0 is installed and goes to the same directory by default I figured since not a whole lot has changed between 1.0 and

I actually rewrote the code for the last test. If you look at the original example the names match. However, after trying a few more things, it looks like the FaceName attribute takes the localized string just fine. It's the Size and Bold attributes that are not preprocessing the localized

Actually, paul, I suspect that Facename isn't working either, you just don't get an XSD validation error because there's no rules for the format of the face name. I bet if you hardcoded the size and bold attributes and compiled your MSI you'd have the !(...) stuff in your facename in the

All I'm saying is that if you remove the location that the software is installed to, it is unreasonable to uninstall, repair, reinstall, or perform any other operation since the location the software has been installed to no longer exists. What do you want Windows Installer to do differently?

To get the second option to work, save the installation directory in the registry when you install v1.0. Then when performing a major upgrade, have v1.1 search the registry for the installation directory and use it. -Brian Simoneau From: [EMAIL

Marc, I concur with Brian, but make sure you have your AppSearch sequenced somewhere before your RemoveExistingProducts in this case, or else MSI will remove the existing version before you get a chance to search the registry for the item. BTW, if you have already released 1.0 and you can't
