It is too big a change, is there a way to force the merge modules to be installed first? They are gathered as 1 "Feature", and my entire product is another "Feature". And it seems that you're correct - it's not the CA that requires the VC, it is my program (which the CA executes).
I guess I'll bundle it with the VC exe install in the next version, but for now - I need a small, safe, easy, quick solution :) Thanks, Gabi. -----Original Message----- From: Neil Sleightholm [mailto:n...@x2systems.com] Sent: יום ה 22 מאי 2014 17:19 To: General discussion about the WiX toolset. Subject: Re: [WiX-users] CAQuietExec - Requires VC runtime redist? I'd suggest you need a bundle which installs the vcredist first (using the exe version) and then runs your msi. (It is not CAQuietExec that requires VC I would assume it is whatever you are running with it.)

In a machine without VCRedist, I get the following error: MSI (s) (D8:C8) [14:31:44:359]: Invoking remote custom action. DLL: C:\Windows\Installer\MSIBA1E.tmp, Entrypoint: CAQuietExec CAQuietExec: CAQuietExec: ?????????? ??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????4??????????????????????????????????????????4???????????????????????????????????????????>???????+????????????????????????? CAQuietExec: Error 0xe0434352: Command line returned an error. CAQuietExec: Error 0xe0434352: CAQuietExec Failed Installing the VC++ 2008 redistributable solves it. Obviously I have the VC 2008 in my installation (as merge modules, gathered under a Feature element), as my product requires them too. So - how come they aren't installed in time for CAQuietExec? How can I set it so they will be installed first, so that the CA won't fail?
