Hi,
I have a package that installs several IIS 6 websites. When I install the
package everything runs OK. The uninstall fails on the ConfigureIIS action.
This happens for any new site I add to the package, while the websites that
were already there from previous versions works fine.
I'm using
Hi all,
I use WiX to create a website with a MSI-installer.
I run into some problems when deploying it on windows server 2008.
There are 3 scenarios:

on the MSI-file. à Everything installs ok.
2. I
Hi everyone,
I'm having trouble with Light.exe. I installed the January 11 build (3.0.3711)
and things work very well except that I can only build the Setup project once
for every time I start Visual Studio. When I build the first time after I start
Visual Studio 2008, everything is OK, but
Thanks Bob, but I'm using WIX V2. Do you know if there is a similar CA in V2
too?

Hi,
I have created a WIX installer that works perfectly on XP.
But When I try in Vista Business, my custom actions are failing
Below is the custom action
CustomAction Id=UninstallLogonHandler Return=check Execute=deferred
ExeCommand=UninstallLogonHandler FileKey=xyz.exe
/CustomAction
Hi
Thanks for respones.
Log says:
Action 18:50:25: UninstallLogonHandler.
Error 1721. There is a problem with this Windows Installer package. A
program required for this install to complete could not be run. Contact your
support personnel or package vendor. Action: UninstallLogonHandler,
Ah, WiX to the rescue.. thanks for that.
Now, it seems these are just standard properties.. so I don't use them like
Directory Ids, right?
The docs don't seem to have an example of using the WixQueryOsDirs
properties.
I.e. do I use:
Directory Id=whatEverIWant Name=%WIX_DIR_COMMON_DOCUMENTS%
or
Never mind.. got it all sorted.
Directory Id=WIX_DIR_COMMON_DOCUMENTS
it is. I gather Directory Ids are properties of sorts and property
expansion in the directory name doesn't happen.
Sorry for the noise.

MsiEnableLog (~0, . ) doesn't work. Something like MsiEnableLog
(INSTALLLOGMODE_VERBOSE,..) does. What are you coding in? If C++, there
are header files etc.

Hi,
actually it's a .NET Bootstrapper.
I'm calling MsiEnableLog and MsiInstallProduct via Interop. And it works
like charm if I don't execute another executable from the process.
Kind regards,

Ah, ok, you said that MsiEnableLog didn't work - I thought that was still an
issue. So your current problem is that calling MsiEnableLog, then processing
some executable like calc.exe, and then calling MsiInstallProduct doesn't work?
Is that the order you're doing it?
Phil Wilson
Hi Wilson,
the order is this:
1. Call calc.exe
2. Call MsiEnableLog
3. Call MsiInstallProduct.
MsiInstallProduct then returns E_FAIL.
Kind regards,
Henning

This is a change in the MSBuild actions in very recent builds of WiX.
Instead of creating a new process it now loads the assembly in-process.
It looks like light.exe can't actually handle that - that various static
variables aren't being cleared down between sessions.

This is despite the fact
I have created a installer which installs a dll a wicc file without any UI.
But if I make any changes to the installer try to install on top of it, it

Is there any way to uninstall it automatically install again instead
Hi there,
For several products, I have distinct 32-bit and 64-bit MSIs, as you'd
expect.
I'd like a single download that contained both, and would install the
correct MSI, depending on the system architecture. For this to work,
the executable would have to be compiled as 32-bit.
Is it OK
Greetings. Please excuse my noobness, but I am new to WiX and all things MSI.
I'm guessing this is a trivial issue:
I've read the WiX tutorial and am trying to deviate just a bit, by creating a
directory on the Desktop and copy a file in there and then also create a
shortcut to that file

Of course, I'd need to add logic to the executable to install the
correct architecture's package, but my question is about whether the
correct processes will be called. Will Windows

It must use a registry key under HKCU as its KeyPath, not a file.

It looks like the current bootstrapper calls msiexec.exe, rather than

that way to make it convenient to pass command line arguments, among
other things.
