hii Bob,
As you said Burn did not supports disabling/enabling Windows features. So i
created my own Exe say NetHelper.exe for doing this task. This exe enables
windows features for .Net3.5.
Now i am not getting how to use this exe within my bootstrapper installer so
that-
1) if the OS is win7

Hi all,
I need to show error message from CA executed on DoAction event.
It is documented that MsiProcessMessage (and hence
Microsoft.Deployment.WindowsInstaller.Session.Message) doesn't work in that
case.

This works great. I tested it out and the uninstall worked great with the newly

Instead of uninstalling why not do an upgrade to the SQL2005 instance.

Hi,
From a quick read of what you have, it looks like you are trying to build a
patch in which you think that two specific components have changed.
ComponentRef Id=cmp981D9885AA29DD578D66D32ED919EBFB/
ComponentRef Id=cmpD5E6EA59DB565F052E0217CB3248DAE5/
Double check that
Yes, right. Just those two componenst. One is executable, the other one library.
I've double checked, they changed. File version and product version of
installed files is different between 1.1.1.1 and 1.0.0.0 package.
Wixmst is ~350kb large, but I've found this piece within:
row op=modify
Those are usually provided to you by create a reference to the projects.

Just trying to figure out how burn determines install plan.
Everything is working well but the exepackage. Burn correctly detects
it is installed but decides it needs to reinstall , which is not
correct.
Condition 'SQLServerInstalled=1' evaluates to true.
Detected package: SqlServerExpress2008,
I'm sure this is my fault but I'm trying to use util:User like this:
Component Id=GrantLogonAsService
Guid={7742E51F-B362-44b7-BFF6-6AAC1AE0D29F}
util:User Id=GrantLogonAsService Name=[SERVICE_LOGON_NAME]
LogonAsService=yes CreateUser=no FailIfExists=no UpdateIfExists=yes
I have a CustomAction as follows:
CustomAction Id='wsdCreateUser'
Directory='ProgramFilesFolder'
ExeCommand='[TARGETDIR]Windows\System32\net.exe user
wsdUser wsdPasswd'
Execute='immediate'
Return='check' /
Two issues:
How are these properties being created and set? If they're created in the UI
sequence, you'll need to mark them with the Secure=yes attribute for them to
exist in the Exec sequence.

1. Windows Installer does not support that, unfortunately.

Thanks for the reply. Here's how they are being created:
Property Id=SERVICE_LOGON_PASSWORD Secure=yes /
Property Id=SERVICE_LOGON_USERNAME Secure=yes /
Property Id=SERVICE_LOGON_DOMAIN Secure=yes /
Then they are being set in the UI sequence like this:
Control Id=EditUserName
It seems that SqlServerExpress2008 was actually planned to be uninstalled,
not repaired. That makes sense since the InstallCondition evaluated to
false (so the package should be removed from the machine).
The BA can override the engine's default requested state in the
OnPlanPackageBegin()
Thank you, Rob for the quick response. I'm surprised to learn that this
basic functionality is not supported. I take it I will have to write a DLL
or C# module to get the behavior I need, huh?
Sergio.

My installer receives credentials from the user then starts a service under
them. If the user enters bad credentials or if the specified account
doesn't have permission to install a Service, the installer rolls back with
no error message. I think it's a long shot, but am I doing something wrong
Slight bit of confusion because all I did was roll the version number
in the boot strapper , and it uninstalls and reinstalls.
Is it suppose to work this way? I will dig around some more. Just confused

I created a minor upgrade where some components were deleted. It seemed to work.
What are the potential problem I could face if I use minor upgrades when
components need to be deleted?

Thanks John worked perfectly! Always entertaining when you think you've
screwed something up somehow even though you haven't changed anything and it
turns out it was the IDE's fault all along!

Hi Fokes:
I'm just in the process of preparing a bundle with burn (the latest weekly
release).
My bundle markup looks as follows:
?xml version=1.0 encoding=UTF-8?
Wix xmlns=http://schemas.microsoft.com/wix/2006/wi;
?define SRWorkingDirectory = c:\work\ ?
Bundle Name=SurfaceReaderInstaller
Your MSI UI shows up during the Apply() phase. Apply happens after you
click the Install button in the wixstdba.

Hi:
Ok, that makes sense. How do I go about populating the directory I want to

My msi has stuff installed in to %program files% and %ProgramData% and has
several defines for 32/64-bit.
I'm quite happy to send the msi/compiled code.
