If you are not using MSBuild/VS/Votive/Nant, you need to add "-ext WixUtilExtension" to both your candle.exe and light.exe command lines.
If you are using any of those build systems, look for how to "reference" WiX extensions in the appropriate nant build file or wixproj file (or properties window, etc.) from the WiX help file (wix.chm) included when you installed WiX. -----Original Message----- From: Adi Sashkis [mailto:adi.sash...@gmail.com] Sent: Thursday, July 08, 2010 1:22 AM To: General discussion for Windows Installer XML toolset. Subject: Re: [WiX-users] Check if a certain program running during installation. Thank you for your answer. I wrote the following code according to some code I found while searching on the internet: <Wix xmlns='http://schemas.microsoft.com/wix/2006/wi' xmlns:util=" http://schemas.microsoft.com/wix/UtilExtension";> <Product .....> ...... <util:CloseApplication Id = "CloseSW" Description="SolidWorks need to be closed" Property="SWRunning" Target="SLDWORKS.exe" /> <Condition Message="This setup requires Solidworks to be closed."> [SWRunning] </Condition> <InstallExecuteSequence> <Custom Action="WixCloseApplications" Before="InstallValidate" /> .... </InstallExecuteSequence> I ran Candle and got this error : "error CNDL0200 : The Product element contains an unhandled extension element 'util:CloseApplication'." 1. What am I doing wrong ? 2. Can you reference me to a full example on how to use <util:CloseApplication /> ?
