Mark, can you enter a bug at http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=105970atid=642714 so we don't lose this? Someone needs to make sure the pubca stuff gets into both the binaries and Votive. (We already have a bug on the latter.) I'm sorry, I can't. Sourceforge just keeps telling me I need to be logged in (after logging in). I've tried it with a couple of browsers, but I'm not getting any joy from it. I'll have a go at building it from source in the meantime. Thanks, Mark - Using Tomcat but need to do more?

[WiX-users] Upgrades All/Current User
Hi, I have a known problem with major upgrades and just want to be sure that there is really no solution for it. I have an MSI file with a user-interface that gives the choice to install for all users or only for current user. When the user installs a new version of the product there should be the choice to remove the older version or to continue with installation and install both versions (for any reasons). The user should have this choice in any case, no matter if he selected all users or current user in the previous version. Is it possible to realise this with wix/msi?

Re: [WiX-users] Vista -Error in SchedServiceConfig
I don’t think that should be a deferred CA. If it is indeed (because of UAC in Vista), it could be very frustrating and undesirable effects in other custom actions also. Scheduling CA (immediate CA, SchedServiceConfig) uses (or should use) non-administrative privileges - SC_MANAGER_CONNECT and SERVICE_QUERY_CONFIG rights does not require administrative privileges (it should not). Only in deferred CA are used SERVICE_START/STOP, etc ., which can be “non-impersonated” custom action. sc.exe in Vista (5472) does work fine for querying services and does not work for starting/stopping services without privileged access. If the current SchedServiceConfig does not work fine, it may require review for Vista UAC friendliness, not for changing it to deferred CA.

Re: [WiX-users] dynamic library registration

Definately don't 'upgrade' anything found there - you have no idea what other applications you're breaking whilst attempting to do that. SFP will undo your action anyway for most files. I guess I need to self-register these two libraries but I do not know how. I have never used DLL before so I need some introduction. Normally you'd use Tallow to work out what the selfreg did and code it into the wix file. OTOH in this case just use the proper comdlg32 msm which will do everything properly and not break stuff (or at least if it does you can legitimately blame microsoft..). Actually I have the same problem with two other applications. It is edition of educational software. In that case is it better to place libraries to system folder than place them to application's folder? There's almost never a case to modify the system folder. Device drivers is about the only one I can think of. Tony - Using Tomcat but need to do more? Need to support web services, security?
