[WiX-users] 64-bit Questions
I am attempting to package a .Net 2.0 application for deployment to a server running the 64-Bit version of Windows 2003. Having never attempted a 64 Bit deployment before I would appreciate feedback on the following: * I have seen that you can mark a Component as 64 bit (i.e. Win64='yes'). However I am not 100% clear on whether this is neccessary for .Net Assemblies as they are effectively only copied to my deployment directory. * I have also seen posts that state that 32-Bit and 64-Bit components should be deployed to different directories (I have 2 assemblies that need to be 32-Bit and several thousand that should run as 64-Bit!). Is this a neccessity or just good practice, and what is the reason for it. * Does anybody know of any issues in deploying Windows Services to a 64-Bit platform. It is probably worth mentioning that any deployments will be full, i.e. no patching or upgrades. Also I want the app to always run 64-Bit rather than under WOW. I would really appreciate any feedback on this. cheers . -- HBOS plc, Registered in Scotland No. SC218813. Registered Office: The Mound, Edinburgh EH1 1YZ.

[WiX-users] Patch element and creation of patch in 3.0
Hallo all, could you anybody explain me, how to create patch in 3.0 WiX version? I've read any samples from Peter Marcu (e.g. http://blogs.msdn.com/pmarcu/archive/2007/06/28/sample-patch.aspx) but it is not enough for solution of my problem. I also can't find any documentation of Patch 3.0 WiX element. My problem is following: I have really big MSI installation, which is built on our build server every day and from time to time we need to apply delta patch on our production platform. Unfortunately with 2.0 WiX + PatchWiz we were not successful, because of crash of PatchWiz utility every time. The MSI packages are packages, where we have about 30 features (MSM modules), MSI are created by WiX version 2.0.

Yes. Just add it in a component, like all the other components: Directory ..

Re: [WiX-users] Adding Bootstrapper code to wxs file.
Thanks for the reply. So will the bootstrapper file be .xml file? How can I
include xml file into wxs file?
Is there any good tutorial avaliable on bootstrapper? I find it very
confusing topic with very little help available.

Re: [WiX-users] Patch element and creation of patch in 3.0
Delta patching is not supported using the Patch element yet. Also, using the WiX 3.0 patch build system, you cannot patch things that come from MSM's. The suggested way to share setup logic is to use Wixlibs, if your msm's are built using wix, then you could consider that. Alternatively, you can create admin images of your target and upgrade layouts and run torch with the -ax switch. You can then pass those transforms as inputs into pyro along with Patch authoring. This is a way to get your msm logic into you patch. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of David Stindl Sent: Tuesday, October 16, 2007 5:38 AM To: WiX Users Subject: [WiX-users] Patch element and creation of patch in 3.0 Hallo all, could you anybody explain me, how to create patch in 3.0 WiX version?

It looks like Heat is being too keen in assuming that the harvested registry
keys can be mapped to COM registration. Removing the mscoree RegistryValue
element simply breaks the COM registration of that .NET component, and
adding a Server=mscoree.dll entry to the Class element (which seems like
the right thing to do) results in LGHT0094.

[WiX-users] Eliminating a directory
There is already an msi and subsequent patches. In my msi I have the following dir structure(simplification): root \ d1 \- good d2 \ wrong d2 (same name as other d2) I guess this came about from an accidental file explorer copy and is now in the msi. This is creating problems as new files added to good d2 aren't being properly picked up. The ideal solution would be to wipe wrong d2 and create the patch, but this creates errors. From scouring the mailing list it looks like I can't get rid of files. Is there a clean way to handle this goof, or do I need to start using the bad d2 everywhere?

Found a couple of alternatives, neither of them nice:
1. Give a unique Id to the mscoree RegistryValue (which will result in the
value being overwritten by two separate Registry table entries):
RegistryValue Id=01D6FA3CBCF435AB820A49ACAF99F5F8_mscoree_overwrite
Root=HKCR
Key=CLSID\{01D6FA3C-BCF4-35AB-820A-49ACAF99F5F8}\InprocServer32
Value=mscoree.dll Type=string Action=write /
2. Advertise the component (= the reg-entries will be written by the
RegisterClassInfo action I think) and then forcefully zero its Darwin
descriptor (WriteRegistryValues occurs after RegisterClassInfo by default):
Class Advertise=yes ... with no Server attribute
...
RegistryValue Root=HKCR
Key=CLSID\{01D6FA3C-BCF4-35AB-820A-49ACAF99F5F8}\InprocServer32
Name=InprocServer32 Value= Type=string Action=write /
I've no idea which of these is better or worse; comments gratefully
received...

[WiX-users] Problems Deploying an ASP.NET Website
So, in a nutshell, I'm getting everything deployed as expected. The Virtual Directory is being setup as an app and all appears good EXCEPT the global.asax file is getting stomped. I initially tried harvesting it then just decided to deploy into a folder. Same issue. I end up with a 1K file and one header line. Navigate to the path that is created during harvest and the file looks good in the source folder. Contains everything I expect but it is definitely stomped after deploying...any ideas?

[WiX-users] Bootstrapper/Decryption

This MSI asks the user to enter the correct password. If the user does so, the custom action de-crypts (that's why I need the C++ and .NET runtimes) a second MSI, and launches it. Mind you, the second MSI is the one I'm really trying to launch after password verification...
