I have the same requirements and ended up writing a custom action to do the
work for me:
>From Windows 7/8/2008R2/2012 I use Dism.exe for OS's below I use ocsetup.exe
>(we use MSMQ for our Server product and our Client product), however Microsoft
>being so consistent (being sarcastic) the features for MSMQ change from OS to
>OS :( so I ended up doing something like this:
[CustomAction]
public static ActionResult CheckToSeeIfMSMQIsInstalled(Session session)
{
var productName = string.Empty;
try
{
if (session == null)
{
throw new ArgumentNullException("session");
}
var tempString = GetSessionProperty(session,
"CustomActionData", false);
var parts = tempString.Split(new[] { '|' });
productName = parts[0];
var serviceExists = ServiceController.GetServices().Any(s =>
s.ServiceName == "MSMQ");
if (!serviceExists)
{
var platformVersion = Environment.OSVersion.VersionString;
var cmdLineParameters = string.Empty;
if (platformVersion.Contains("6.0.600") &&
!Os.IsWindowsServer())
{
// Windows Vista
cmdLineParameters = "MSMQ-Container;MSMQ-Server /quiet
/norestart";
}
else if ((platformVersion.Contains("6.1.760") &&
!Os.IsWindowsServer())

!Os.IsWindowsServer()))
{
// Windows 7 and Windows 8
cmdLineParameters = "/Online /NoRestart /Enable-Feature
/featurename:MSMQ-Container /featurename:MSMQ-Server";
}
else if (platformVersion.Contains("6.1.760") &&
Os.IsWindowsServer())
{
// Windows Server 2008 R2
cmdLineParameters = "/Online /NoRestart /Enable-Feature
/featurename:MSMQ-Server";
}
else if (platformVersion.Contains("6.2.920") &&
Os.IsWindowsServer())
{
// Windows Server 2012
cmdLineParameters = "/Online /NoRestart /Enable-Feature
/featurename:MSMQ /featurename:MSMQ-Services /featurename:MSMQ-Server";
}
string cmdLineExe;
if (platformVersion.Contains("6.0.600") &&

}
catch (Exception ex)

Subject: [WiX-users] Installing MSMQ as dependency
Hello all,
On the installer I'm currently developing, I need to install Microsoft Message
Queue (MSMQ) as a dependency. Depending on Windows version, I need to run
ocsetup.exe or sysocmgr.exe. No issues with ocsetup, my problem relies with
sysocmgr.
So far I've thought of two ways to do it: add an ExePackage to my existing
bundle, or setting a custom action.
Either way, the issues I'm currently having is:
- If i do it in the bundle, i need to provide the .exe file, which I think it
is not recommended, I have to call it. (correct me if I'm wrong)
- I need to pass a file with MSMQ options as a parameter, is this possible?
(I didn't anything remotely close with this)
If there's another simple and/or correct way of installing MSMQ let me know as
well :)
Thank you for your help,
José Marques
