Hi,
I have a CA that I need to know if it succeeded or not, The returned
value is ignore but I need to know The value of InstallD after the
execution.
How can I know?
This is the code:
CustomAction Id= InstallD BinaryKey='CA'
VBScriptCall='DriverInstall' Return='ignore'
Hi.
I'm trying to get my application a Windows Vista Certification and had to
make some minor (mainly UpgradeVersion tag) changes to my install package.
As a result I've stumbled upon this weird thing that when application is
uninstalled on Vista, the InstallDir is not removed even if it's
Hello,
The Byte Order Mark is removed from xml text files when WiX XmlConfig
editing is applied. I've just found this out the hard way, as it breaks some
DotNet programs (I imagine it depends on the methods used to address the
data).
I've created bug 2101670 for this.
Any chance of a quick fix?

Yes, though usually MSI picks the right values for you. Though patches
aren't generally double-click installable; you usually need to
The MSI only does what you tell it to do. I had the same issue when I

You need to modify your code that generates dummy1.msi so that all the
files you're removing have RemoveFile tags specified for them. Simply
deleting the File tags from your code isn't enough (I find it
Change it from ignore to check as it says in the documentation for

Sounds like it could be an issue with a service on Vista. Most likely to be
something to do with indexing or searching. I'm not 100% up to speed with all
the new features in Vista but I might see if our releases also exhibit this
behaviour. Our Vista Virtual Machines have SP1 applied though

Any help on Quiet Installation??
Hi,
I am trying to get a list of directories/files within a MSI file using WIX's
DTF. But, when using InstallPathMap, I get the Directory and Files maps,
they show the property names instead of the actual values.
i.e. ProgramFilesFolder\Product\bin\file.exe
or
You need another CA and ditch the property...
CustomAction Id=SetAction7 Property=QtExecCmdLine Value='? /
CustomAction Id=Action7 BinaryKey=WixCA DllEntry=CAQuietExec
Execute=immediate /
Then you need to schedule it something like this...
Custom Action=SetAction7
As stated before Value=notepad.exe Value=psexec.exe \\192.168.1.2
-c WebsiteInstall.exe mean nothing to the Windows Installer which is
why your installation fails.
Value=C:\Windows\notepad.exe might give you better results.

I have some application settings (like database configuration etc.) stored in

As it is a standard .Net approach i haven't expected any troubles with this

We have an application that needs to be installed on IIS. It is 32-bit
and needs to have the enable32BitAppOnWin64 setting toggle to true. How
can this be done using the Wix IIS extension, or do we need to stick
with a custom action call to the appcmd.exe utility?
Thanks,

In our installs, we don't utilize a patch wrapper.
Instead, we set the REINSTALL and REINSTALLMODES appropriately within our
installation(s)...

You can update the config file during the UI sequence and modify

You'll probably have to write up a dialog and have some edit fields set to
properties and pass those values entered onto the util:xmlconfig element.
That's been my approach. Maybe I'm on the wrong track on what you are
trying to do...

Yes, you can omit the Package.Platform attribute from the code if you want it
to always follow the project's platform configuration.

Ok, in the wxs file where you declared the Game element, at the top inside
the Wix tag you need to specify

you'd run along the same thing if you wanted to use the util/sql/etc.

If the identity running the installation doesn't have sysadmin privileges,

That's correct, with this in place you should be able to double click your MSP
and get the desired results (it's how I do it, anyways).
Regarding a REINSTALLMODE of vomus vs. omus, I can only really point to the
