[WiX-users] Speeding up Light command
Hi all, I want to create an install package with WiX,but light command is very very slow. It takes about 5 hours to run and create the install package. My install package will copy 45478 files and 2190 folder on system.So it includes a large number of files to copy.Could you please help me if there is anyway to speed this up, without increasing the size of the resulting file?

You should not start a new thread if you just provide some more detailled information on your own old one. The number of files and folders is impressive, but not enough: What is the overall source file size? What is the resulting file size, if you depend on it? Did you look where your bottleneck is? Is it the harddrive, for example because of a very slow 4200er hdd for notebooks, is it while compressing the files, because the CPU-load already is 100%? Your problem seems to be very special, therefore some background information should be helpful too. Is it really neccessary to build all files into one package etc.? Which parameters to light.exe do you already use? For example there's -dcl:level to set the compression level.

Re: [WiX-users] How to fire 2 Custom Actions when user clicks Finishbutton?
Any suggestions? Thanks. -Original Message- From: Zhou, Lei [mailto:lz...@sychip.com] Sent: Friday, April 16, 2010 1:16 PM To: wix-users@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: [WiX-users] How to fire 2 Custom Actions when user clicks Finishbutton? Hi, I already have something below to fire one Custom Action and I need to add another one to launch App2. For App1, I have a check box on the Finish dialog. But for app2, I don't really need a check box. I just need a way to fire it when a user clicks the Finish button in the following code. UI Publish Dialog=MyExitDialog Control=Finish Order=1 Event=DoAction Value=RunApp1 RUNAPP1ONEXIT /Publish /UI By the way I have tried to fire App 2 Custom Action with the following code, InstallExecuteSequence Custom Action=LaunchApp2 After=InstallFinalizeNOT Installed/Custom /InstallExecuteSequence It doesn't work. The log shows the App2 CA is executed fine but it fails mystically. I guess there is some timing issue. I see there are still installations going on after LaunchApp2 is fired. Both custom actions are sort of working. If I switch RunApp1 and LaunchApp2 in the above code, both App1 and App2 would run without problem. But I prefer to give a user an option whether App1 should be launched or not. Thank you. Louis Z. -- Download Intel#174; Parallel Studio Eval Try the new software tools for yourself.
