Subject: Re: [WiX-users] Administrative Setup UI Post the relevant sections of code e.g. the dialog where you ask the user for the installation directory, any associated properties and/or custom actions & the section of the directory tree it relates to so we can try & see what's going wrong. Also looking at a verbose log (msiexec /a <yourmsi> /l*vx <yourlogfile>) might help. The Administrative install dialogs in the standard WiX UI's are relatively unfinished so it wouldn't come as any surprise that there are things like the progress dialog missing. Bear this in mind when you're trying to use them. Any time the question comes up regarding how finished they are it generally is assumed not many people use them so there are other things with higher priority to fix first. You can "fix" them to an extent within your package using a UI Element & the necessary modifications to AdminUISequence. Good Luck.

We are having difficulties adding a dialog to the adminuisequence. When we add a dialog to the sequence, we execute an action called, SetTargetPath, but the end result is the install always occurs entirely in the c:\ folder. Any ideas? Once the admin execute sequence begins we don't see any type of progress dialog, just the last UI dialog with the install button depressed. Do we have to do something different with the administrative install to make this happen? -- Tony ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ------ Throughout its 18-year history, RSA Conference consistently attracts the world's best and brightest in the field, creating opportunities for Conference attendees to learn about information security's most important issues through interactions with peers, luminaries and emerging and established companies. http://p.sf.net/sfu/rsaconf-dev2dev _______________________________________________ WiX-users mailing list WiX-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/wix-users ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- -- Throughout its 18-year history, RSA Conference consistently attracts the world's best and brightest in the field, creating opportunities for Conference attendees to learn about information security's most important issues through interactions with peers, luminaries and emerging and established companies. http://p.sf.net/sfu/rsaconf-dev2dev _______________________________________________ WiX-users mailing list WiX-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/wix-users ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Throughout its 18-year history, RSA Conference consistently attracts the world's best and brightest in the field, creating opportunities for Conference attendees to learn about information security's most important issues through interactions with peers, luminaries and emerging and established companies. http://p.sf.net/sfu/rsaconf-dev2dev _______________________________________________ WiX-users mailing list WiX-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/wix-users
