[WiX-users] Warning message
Our application is not currently officially supported on Windows 2003 (some mumbo-jumbo about QA having to give the thumbs up). But I know it works because Windows 2003 is what my development PC runs. Is there a WiX way to display a warning to the user that Windows 2003 is not a supported platform and allow them to exit or proceed? John - Take Surveys. Earn Cash.

Re: [WiX-users] Uninstalling while application is running
In the log file, I see:
MSI (s) (28:F8) [01:13:38:389]: Scheduling file
'C:\WINDOWS\Installer\280e0aa.msi' for deletion during post-install cleanup
(not post-reboot).
and
MSI (s) (28:F8) [01:13:38:405]: Scheduling file
'C:\WINDOWS\Installer\{3E568507-73F2-4843-ADCC-885C8DD10D67}\DA.exe' for
deletion during post-install cleanup (not post-reboot).
Then later I see many lines similar to:
MSI (s) (28:F8) [01:13:40:170]: Executing op: FileRemove(,FileName=DA.exe
,,ComponentId={48481B50-DA2C-41CF-9F18-CEB62EF80E8D})
MSI (s) (28:F8) [01:13:40:170]: Verifying accessibility of file: DA.exe
Other than that, I really don't know what to look for.
I thought maybe one of my uninstall custom actions was hosing the uninstall,
but after taking them out and going through the install-run-uninstall
routine, I see the same behavior.
The log file finishes with the optimistic:
Action ended 1:13:45: INSTALL. Return value 1.
MSI (s) (28:F8) [01:13:45:389]: Note: 1: 1724
MSI (s) (28:F8) [01:13:45:389]: Product: Desktop Assistant -- Removal
completed successfully.
It looks like the only way around this is to scab in a custom action that
does not let the uninstall proceed unless the program is shutdown.

Re: [WiX-users] Another strange error message
According to the MS article in the error message, Win2k3 comes with .NET1.1 SP1. The build number of .NET 1.1 on my machine is 1.1.4322.2300, which is the highest 1.1 build number I've seen. I ran Microsoft Update, just to make sure, and it didn't list SP1 as an available update. I've now gotten this message on three different .wxs files, and can repro every time on those files. I'm in the process of upgrading all of our installers from v2 to v3. None of the installers had errors when we were using v2 to build them.

Re: [WiX-users] New Website install
Is the error message from a dialog that pops up, or the log? Sometimes, odd installer errors are really something else that's not 100% related to the error that gets spit out. Or it might result from an earlier warning that's not displayed. You might produce a log from the commandline to get more detail: Msiexec.exe /i yourmsi.msi /l* out.txt You can then get some context regarding what was going on at the time the error occurred. -Matt _ From: Rob Mensching [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, November 21, 2006 3:52 PM To: Zane Teh; 'wix-users@lists.sourceforge.net' Cc: Suresh Parameshwar Subject: Re: [WiX-users] New Website install Not off the top of my head.

It would sort of make sense if it had reverted to the user, since the InstallExecuteSequence has finished and we're back in the UI sequence, but I was wondering if anyone knew for sure. The reason I need to know is this: if I launch an application from the final dialog, which user is that application running as? Rob - Take Surveys. Earn Cash.

Re: [WiX-users] Multiple parameters in CA dll
You'll have to forgive Rob for being a man of few words - he's a newlywed and probably out of breath ;) (Congratulations!). Here's how I passed multiple properties but I can't take credit for this - I found the example somewhere else: !-- custom action that passes a global property to the 'DoCleanup' custom action (note the property 'Name' being set is actually the name of the custom action containing the script!) -- CustomAction Id=DoCleanup.SetProperty Return=check Property=DoCleanup Value=[SITE.ID]|[SITE.NAME]|[SITE.PWD]|IISVERSION|[ComputerName]|[INSTALLDIR] / !-- define a deferred custom action and point to the binary resource that'll be embedded -- CustomAction Id=DoCleanup Return=check Execute=deferred BinaryKey=Cleanup_vbs VBScriptCall=Execute/ Binary Id=Cleanup_vbs src=Cleanup.vbs/ InstallExecuteSequence !-- schedule cleanup after files are installed -- Custom Action=DoCleanup.SetProperty After=InstallFiles/ Custom Action=DoCleanup After=DoCleanup.SetPropertyNOT Installed/Custom /InstallExecuteSequence In the above example, several properties are passed separated by the pipe (|) character which are then parsed into separate values in the VBScript with: a = Split(Property(CustomActionData),|) Regards, John On 11/21/06, Rob Mensching [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: No, but your CustomAction can read Properties. *From:* [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto: [EMAIL PROTECTED] *On Behalf Of *Bahar Shah *Sent:* Friday, November 03, 2006 06:44 *To:* wix-users@lists.sourceforge.net *Subject:* [WiX-users] Multiple parameters in CA dll Is there a way to pass multiple parameter to a function in a CA dll ?

Re: [WiX-users] MSVC8 redistributables?
John: I was using a custom action to do that until today. I'm now linking the runtime straight into my executable instead of leaving it hanging as a dependency on a DLL. -- Eric Fesh Customer Support Engineer/Software Test Engineer Verari Systems Software, Inc. 110 12th Street North, Suite D103 Birmingham, AL 35203 Phone +1-205-397-3141 ext. 3149 Fax +1-205-397-3142 [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.verarisoft.com/ The information contained in this communication may be confidential and is intended only for the use of the recipient(s) named above.
