[WiX-users] Check for Installed app

2014-03-24 Thread Joel Palmer
 

Can you give me the code to check for a previously installed version of my
app?  Then, prevent install if it is there?

Currently, I am allowed to install the same app twice and I want to prevent
that.

 

Also, do you have example code on how to check for an old version
installed?  Then, uninstall when old and replace with new version?

[WiX-users] Run external Exe on Install

2014-03-21 Thread Joel Palmer
I have a prerequisite that must be run before my installer continues.  Can
you give me a code example on:

1.   How to call the executable.  Custom action?  Script?

2.   How to verify that it ran.  Look for a file in a directory?

3.   How to pause the install until it is verified.

 

Thanks for your help.
