Re: [WiX-users] dependency walker shows error after a successful MSI installation

2007-04-05 Thread Constantin Bryzgalin
Hello,

 the dependency walker (depends.exe) shows an error saying that, The
 side-by-side configuration information in the DLL contains errors. It 
 fails to find the assembly DLLs (MFC80.dll, MSVCR80.dll, MSVCP80.dll) 
 that *are* there in the WinSxS directory.

If they are installed, maybe there's something wrong with your exe's manifest?

[WiX-users] WiX 3 and the wixui

2007-04-05 Thread learnerplates

I've installed WiX 3 in order to get the Visual Studio integrated version.
It works fine, and I can use sourcesafe  through Visual Studio.
Now I've just started to use the UI part of WiX, it's failing, I think the
installed WiXUI library in Visual Studio is from Version 2 and may have come
with the Visual Studio SDK!
Is there anyway to get WiX 3 to work with WiX 2 UI libraries?

I've been trying to use the example SampleWixUI  found at the 
http://www.tramontana.co.hu/wix/lesson2.php WiX Tutorial 

Here's the error:
 
C:\dotNET\WixSampleUI\WixSampleUIlight.exe -out SampleWixUI.msi

not compatible with the expected library file format version 3.0.2002.0.

Also, does anyone know how to add the additional switch for the WixUI to the
Visual Studio project (The WixProject does not appear to have commandline
parameters in the project properties!!!)

 I have a weird bug.  When installing to the default path, uninstall works

 If I had to guess, I would think my bug is using one regkey for all my

 That article indicates that Windows Installer is broken for

ALLUSERS=1 does that. Pretend ALLUSERS=2 doesn't exist.

 My ultimate goal is to install the application to a single common 
 location that is user-independent.  My current installer which only 
 sets ALLUSERS=1 tends to scatter files all over the place on Vista as 
 Vista has buggered the folder structure so some of my files appear to 
 be in a common place that is only common for that one user (which 
 appears to break component rules if another user installs the same 
 stuff), and some files go elsewhere.

Which files?

Re: [WiX-users] .NET Install causes Windows Error when running program.

2007-04-05 Thread Hallquist Jr, Robert
Thanks for the response,

 

Actually I found out that the problem is due to one of my files that is
installed is not the correct size.  The file is listed in ORCA as 204K but
when it is installed, the size is 36K.  I am using a Merge Module and the
file that has problems is the first component in the merge module.  Once I
moved this file to the end of the list everything installed fine.

 

Do you know why this would happen.

Problem: the port monitor has to find it's way into the System32
folder but the files are not installed at least up to
MsiProcessDrivers and as I was suprised to see much later. So while
running a custom action to add the Monitor the file with the monitor
is still not accessible on the disk. It's in the .msi file of
course. But it seems there is no easy way to just pick it out and
install it manually 

You will have to check that

How does ServiceInstall detect that you're installing a .net service as
opposed to a regular service?

 

I'm experiencing difficulties installing a .net service using
ServiceInstall. The service is there but doesn't seem to be registering

How does ServiceInstall work compared to the .net utility

I have successfully managed to install services written in unmanaged C++

Do I have to use the method which is mentioned here:

Re: [WiX-users] Localizing WixUI in 3.0 - error LGHT0100 :The localization identifier xxx has been duplicated in

2007-04-05 Thread Julie Campbell
My apologies if this has already been answered, but I did skim all the
digests since the one this was in looking for an answer.  With the caveat
that I setup the localization to the default (en-us), this works for me
(simplified here):

  light -cultures:en-us -loc lang\en-us\prod_en-us.wxl -ext WixUIExtension
  ...wixlibs...   prod.wixobj -out prod.msi

where my prod_en-us.wxl looks like this:

?xml version='1.0'? 
WixLocalization Culture='en-us'
xmlns='http://schemas.microsoft.com/wix/2006/localization'   
String Id='LANG'1033/String   
String Id='CreateDesktopShortcut'Create Desktop shortcut/String
String Id='CreateStartMenuShortcut'Create shortcut in the Start
Menu/String
String Id='CreateProgramGroupShortcut'Create a Program Group with a
shortcut/String
/WixLocalization


I am wondering why you have a strings.xml file and a .wxl file, that
doesn't make sense.

No one ever tried to localize WixUI in 3.0? I'm afraid I have to debug
light.exe. :(

 Where strings.xml contains my custom localized strings.

 I got 520 errors:

 What is the correct way to localize WixUIExtension in 3.0?

Re: [WiX-users] Installing .NET Services

2007-04-05 Thread John Vottero
I don't think there's a difference between installing a .NET service vs
. a regular service so, ServiceInstall doesn't need to detect
anything.  Can you install your service with SC CREATE?

 

The InstallUtil.exe doesn't know a service from a hole in the ground.
All it does is look for classes that have the RunInstaller attribute and
it calls the right methods (depending on the command line switches). 

 

Was your service already installed the first time that you tried to
install it via WiX?  I'm not sure what Windows Installer does if a
service is already installed when it thinks it's installing for the
first time.

How does ServiceInstall detect that you're installing a .net service as
opposed to a regular service?

 

I'm experiencing difficulties installing a .net service using
ServiceInstall. The service is there but doesn't seem to be registering
properly.

 

How does ServiceInstall work compared to the .net utility
InstallUtil.exe?

Hi Wix people

 

I am having problems installing a windows service written in .NET. I am
using wix 3.0.2128.0.

 

I have successfully managed to install services written in unmanaged C++
using the ServiceInstall tag, but this doesn't seem to work for my .NET
component.

 

Do I have to use the method which is mentioned here:

? ... or should the ServiceInstall tag work?

Re: [WiX-users] Installing .NET Services

2007-04-05 Thread Kevin Burton
The problem is that none if the Installer methods or events are getting
called. With InstallUtil the methods and events associated with the
Installer base class are call. With ServiceInstall they are not. I would
assume that SC_CREATE would also not call the Installer base class methods.

[WiX-users] Error in German?

2007-04-05 Thread Kevin Burton
I have a Wix generated .msi file and it has been working fine for sometime
now (in English). Recently when I tried to deply on a machine that was low
on disk space I received an error dialog indicating that the machine had
insufficient space to proceed but this error message was in German. The
buttons were in German also. I generate the .msi using:

 

  ItemGroup

!-- Required WiX item.

  Files in this item are sent to the Candle tool.

--

Compile Include=$(BaseInputPath)\BsiServices.wxs/

  /ItemGroup

  PropertyGroup

!-- Required to display strings in proper localized form --

LocalizedStringFile$(ToolPath)WixUI_en-us.wxl/LocalizedStringFile

  /PropertyGroup

  ItemGroup

WixLibrary
Include=$(ToolPath)wixui.wixlib;$(ToolPath)wixca.wixlib;$(ToolPath)sca.wixl
ib/

  /ItemGroup

 

So I am confused as to why the German is showing up.

 

Any help would be appreciated.

 

Thank you.

 

Kevin
