The reboot does happen at the end ... and asks the user's permission before
rebooting [unless run silently], but when the system comes back up and the

VS2005] ... and the BO modules are known to be cr*p, they don't pass the
validation tests [I'll supply a log if you really want it], and BO isn't
planning
on fixing them any time soon [if ever, but the latter is just my opinion
...]
On the WiX side, I'm using v2.0.5213.0 because I can't even get the project
to compile/link cleanly with v2.0.5325.0 ... unless I use the previous
version
of mergemod.dll ...
Any suggestions on how to hunt for whatever is setting the Preselected

Thanks again for all of your time,

I had so much hassle with the Business Objects merge modules I moved to
using their MSI file and triggering it from a bootstrapper.
The Runtime MSI file can be found in the following locations (assuming
you chose the default installation path):
C:\Program Files\Business Objects\Crystal Reports 11.5\Samples\en\CR
.NET\Runtime Setup\CrystalReports11_5_NET.msi (for .NET 1.0 / 1.1)
C:\Program Files\Business Objects\Crystal Reports 11.5\Samples\en\CR
.NET\.NET 2 Runtime Setup\CrystalReports11_5_NET_2005.msi (for .NET 2.0)
Interestingly, the presence of similar MSI files in the Visual Studio
SDK Bootstrapper folder (one is even identical in size) suggests that
the MSI file is also used by VS generated setup projects.
Hope this info is of interest.
Regards,
Richard

Sorry I've forgotten my Bug reporting Manners.
Wix version 3.0.2925.0
But I've found the bug anyway.
There are no changes in the Wix3 code base for the install certificateca
In wix2 I found this nice comment..
"""
RobMen: Fix nasty bug in Certificate uninstall that would incorrectly
delete certificates. Also fix bugs introduced when modifying columns to
support properties.
"""
http://wix.cvs.sourceforge.net/wix/wix2.0/src/ca/serverca/scaexec/scacertexec.cpp?view=log
Could this get ported to wix3 please?
Cheers
Garth

Hello All,
While install and uninstall custom actions related to 'command line commands'
appear and disappear. Is there any way to minimize this.
Ex- When custom action related to taskkill.exe command, command prompt appears
and disappears. I want to minimize.

That's what Unattended Mode is; progress bar only. That's with the /passive
argument to msiexec.
You want Quiet Mode, which is completely silent. For this you want the /quiet
argument.

Subject: [WiX-users] Changing TARGETDIR based on Feature Selection
To: wix-users@lists.sourceforge.net
Message-ID:
<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1"
Odd Requirement here.
Client has two primary features they want installed by the MSI.
If feature A is selected for install, everything should be installed to F:
If feature A and B are both selected for install, everything should be
installed to F:
If feature B only is selected for install, everything should be installed to
E:
Now this sounds easy enough I guess... But they also want to override the
installation folder in the UI (if they are installed to some of their test
environments everything has to be on C:). The current UI sequence is
Welcome
Feature Selection
Install Dir customization (browse box etc)
Other bits...
The problem I have is that if I change TARGETDIR property on a next button
event of my feature selection screen, it doesn't recalculate all the other
directory paths. Is there any way I can trigger this recalculation between
UI screens.
I have a feeling that this would be a bit easier if I didn't have to have
the UI screen there, if I didn't I could just use a Type 35 custom action
before costfinalize, right?
Anyone got any ideas at all??? see snippet from sample log below, not that
it shows anything...
Cheers,
Mark
