[WiX-users] Application Pools Created on Windows XP

Hi, I am selecting a bootstrapper for my msi and am looking into Burn in 3.5.0529.0. Is this version stable enough for serious use? If yes, is there any document giving more details about how to use burn? This is the only document I can find about burn: http://robmensching.com/blog/posts/2009/

Re: [WiX-users] Service failed to start using WiX3.0

Pretty much any error that Windows Installer has with the SCM gets "translated" into that error message (it doesn't ever provide the actual error that the service APIs returned). Thus, you can't assume it really is an access denied. That part is just a hint (for non-.NET code, that is the assumed m

[WiX-users] Strange COM+ Error

Hi Yan, Thank you for your reply. I read the web page as you recommended. It is very helpful. I would like to ask whether it is possible to write the first installation and upgrade in the same msi. The msi shall check if it is new install or upgrade. If it is upgrade, then do some custom actio
