Re: [WiX-users] What is the latest stable verision of WIX?

v3.0.5419.0. Your v3.0 is very out-dated. You won't be able to simply compile WiX v2.0 XML in WiX v3.0 by upgrading your compiler. The schema has changed between v2.0 v3.0. You would be well advised to run your .wxs files through WiXCop.exe first and/or re-harvest anything you previously

Re: [WiX-users] UnInstallExecuteSequence ... how?

There is no such thing as UnInstallExecuteSequence. Schedule Condition your action appropriately in the InstallExecuteSequence. I suggest something like After=RemoveFiles and set the inner text to something like REMOVE AND Installed (note: those are suggestions don't just use them without

This is an entirely manufactured situation for testing purposes - I don't want to send out our first multi-language package without knowing how to patch it. Boy, am I glad too! We're currently looking at the language definitions and think we're going along the right lines though. Cheers, G

Re: [WiX-users] Installing patch gives me Error reading file dialog

Hi, For people having the same issue, here is what I have found. If there are new folders starting with dot . ( e.g. folder name '.data' ) added to the upgrade image, installing patch will give the Error reading file error dialog. If removing dot . and changing .data to data, the patch installs

Re: [WiX-users] Upgrade Installs and Component Rules

I assume you mean C1 and C1-prime in step 2. I have to refresh my memory on what is allowed in a Major Upgrade vs. other upgrades. I think that moving R3 to C1-prime must only be allowed because this is a major upgrade. Otherwise it breaks the rules? I suspect I will always be doing major

Re: [WiX-users] Upgrade Installs and Component Rules

It is a rule breakage no matter what, but those of us who have been in your spot before have learned the side effects of several different rule breakages, both short and long term. When breaking component rules, major upgrades tend to be something you will be forced to do sooner or later, and so

Re: [WiX-users] Update adding a new compontent

My preference would be to have the new MSI only include the new files, however we could include older versions if necessary. Ideally the versions in the GAC would stack up until someone uninstalls them. If we could pull it off I would like to have one entry in add remove programs that gives the

Thanks for the help, I tried it without InstallPrivileges=elevated and it almost got it to work. Both methods ('Condition' element and type 19 custom action) appear to have the same net effect. XP works great and stops the install if not an admin. That fine and is what I want. Vista

Re: [WiX-users] Vista Standard User and perMachine install

In XP: you either are an administrator or you are not. It is simple. In Vista with UAC turned off: Same as XP. In Vista with UAC turned on: Administrators are not an administrator until they elevate (via the consent dialog). Non-administrators can also elevate via the same mechanism by supplying
