It's because your components aren't inside the bin directory tag.  You've used 
a closed element by 
declaring Directory . /.  I'm not even sure how that compiles because the 
closing /Directory 
tag doesn't have an opening tag to match against.

You want:
Directory . 
   Component  
 File ... /
 File ... /
   /Component
/Directory

I think you'd have to run the whole install elevated.  Actually, if it was an 
exe with requiresAdmin 
specified in the manifest, that might get elevated.  If you need a DLL though I 
don't think that 
will work.  I looked at this, and although you can specify requiresAdmin in a 
DLL manifest, you 
can't elevate a DLL when you load it.
 
 Elevated means i have the permissions of the LocalSystem account. Still 
 not enough permissions to access the network etc

Really?  The elevated section of InstallExecuteSequence should be all powerful, 
given that it's 
making system changes.  What error are you getting back?  Are you sure you're 
not trying to access 
the network via a mapped drive?  Those are only visible to whichever user 
created them.
 
 Are there any workarounds or tricks to execute custom actions with full 
 admin permissions?
 We tried a manifest in the native ca-dll, but the MSI installer ignores 
 the manifest.

Unless it deferred I think you'll have to run the whole thing as elevated.

Re: [WiX-users] Dynamically grab directory value


You can also avoid making the directory into a global property by using
[$component_name] to evaluate the full path to where a component is
installed to in the same way that Rob suggests [#field] fo evaluate the
location of a file.

 full path of a folder using [FOLDER_ID].  You will probably need to make
 them upper case so they get

 it's [#fileid].

Re: [WiX-users] how to create language transform in wix? Is it possible to do this in wix?

2007-08-17 Thread Stefan Pavlik

Hi all...

AFAIK the language transform cannot be created using WiX.
You can create several MSI packages (one for each language) and use
another tool (msitran.exe) to compare the packages and create the
language transformation.

Msitran.exe is part of SDK.

Regards

Stefan

Re: [WiX-users] Kill Process

2007-08-17 Thread Simon Topley

Sadly not a lot of response. This is my best stab at it so far:



Binary Id=taskkill src='C:\Windows\system32\taskkill.exe'/

CustomAction Id='KillWSQ' BinaryKey=taskkill ExeCommand='/im
wsq95.exe /t /f' Return=asyncNoWait /CustomAction
InstallExecuteSequence
Custom Action='KillWSQ'
After=InstallInitializeInstalled/Custom
/InstallExecuteSequence


If nothing cleaner comes along then I'll have to put a switch into the
exe that will force it to kill itself and any other copies of itself
currently running.

I'm surprised that the uninstall doesn't fail and only give this in the
log (The file is removed dispite it being in use! And the process is
still running with the real path to the exe that is removed. It has a

Re: [WiX-users] AppSearch nesting


Thanks for your feedback Phil.  you're right though, I did start with the
CLSID in order to find out which of the many file names could be installed
is (or isn't)... everytime there's a new version of flash they rename the
ocx file (flash8.ocx, flash8a.ocx, flash8b.ocx, etc.).

Is there anyway you can perform the FileSearch with wildcards?  Something
like flash*.ocx.

Cheers,
Gareth




Wilson, Phil wrote:
 
 It looks like you're mixing up FileSearch/DirectorySearch and
 RegistrySearch. 
 
 An MSI AppSearch for a registry item has no version limitations - it
 returns the path to the file. That's what you've got. 
 
 A Directory/File search can limit version ranges, but you start with a
 DirectorySearch path, something like (no angle brackets):
 
 Property ID = FLASH
 DirectorySearch Path=[SystemFolder]Macromed\Flash
 Depth, Id etc 
 FileSearch Name =flash.ocx MinVersion=8.0.24.0 
 
 And FLASH is set if it's found with those version restrictions. There is
 no nesting of AppSearch. 
 
 Something you'll need to watch out for is that they rename the OCXs,
 which is probably why you started with a CLSID search. So you can do
 several FileSearches in that folder for flash.ocx, flash9.ocx etc and
 use any of the resulting properties for success, or pass that path
 you've got into a custom action to go get the version.  I don't know if
 WiX has any additional search helpers for this, but the MSI AppSearch on
 the registry won't do a version check for you.

 Subject: [WiX-users] AppSearch nesting
 
 
 Hi,
 
 I am trying to use AppSearch to determin if the installed version of
 FlashPlayer is sufficient (greater than 8.0.24.0) and have nested some
 searches as follows:
 Property Id=FILEVERSIONTEST Secure=yes
   RegistrySearch Id=FileVersionTestA Root=HKCR
 Key=CLSID\{D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-44455354}\InprocServer32
 Type=raw
   FileSearch Id=FileVersionTestB
 LongName=[FileVersionTestA]
 MinVersion=8.0.24.0 /
   /RegistrySearch
 /Property
 
 The resulting log file from the install says:
 AppSearch: Property: FILEVERSIONTEST, Signature: FileVersionTestB
 MSI (c) (7C:A0) [10:54:29:026]: PROPERTY CHANGE: Adding FILEVERSIONTEST
 property. Its value is 'C:\WINDOWS\system32\macromed\flash\flash.ocx'.
 
 The version of FlashPlayer this sytem has is 6.0.79.0.
 
 As such, I'd expect the AppSearch to return false, which it kind of does
 in
 maintaining the path found in the registry, but when I tweaked the MSI
 to
 test for version 1.0.0.0 the log file was identicle.  I suspect the
 failing
 is in the declaration of my 'LongName' attribute for the FileSearch, but
 I
 can't get my head round how this behavious should work.
 
 Any pointers would be great,
 Gareth

Re: [WiX-users] Detecting windows versions while installing


I would suggest that you add an event to the 'Next' button on one of your
early dialogs (perhaps even the Welcome dialog) and display the info on a
spawned dialog...

Publish Event=SpawnDialog
Value=VistaWarningWindowsNTgt;=600/Publish

Then define your 'Vista Warning' with the dimensions and elements you
require for the warning and the following event to the 'OK' button to close
it:

Publish Event=EndDialog Value=Return1/Publish

Best of luck,
Gareth

 the installer to just display a warning message in this case?
 
 Thanks

My guess is: your *.wixproj was created with Votive 2.0?
Votive 2.0 and 3.0 project file formats are not compatible.

[WiX-users] uninstalling dlls, again

2007-08-17 Thread Alexei


Well I posted about this a while ago, but I've still not found a solution so
I figured I'd try again.

What happens is that when I attempt to uninstall the application the three
DLLs that are installed with it are left on the system.
The installation fragments for these DLLs were created with tallow -s, and
the local references in there have been changed. All three are in the
sytem32 folder. (and yes I KNOW I shouldn't put them there but that's
outwith my control)

What I DO get in the verbose log is:
MSI (s) (80:B4) [13:06:01:687]: Component: readerComp; Installed: Local;  
Request: Absent;   Action: Null
MSI (s) (80:B4) [13:06:01:687]: Component: writerComp; Installed: Local;  
Request: Absent;   Action: Null
MSI (s) (80:B4) [13:06:01:687]: Component: serverComp; Installed: Local;  
Request: Absent;   Action: Null
MSI (s) (80:B4) [13:06:01:687]: Component: __LanMonExeComp65; Installed:
Null;   Request: Absent;   Action: Absent
MSI (s) (80:B4) [13:06:01:687]: Component: __readerComp65; Installed: Null;  
Request: Absent;   Action: Null
MSI (s) (80:B4) [13:06:01:687]: Component: __serverComp65; Installed: Null;  
Request: Absent;   Action: Null
MSI (s) (80:B4) [13:06:01:687]: Component: __writerComp65; Installed: Null;  
Request: Absent;   Action: Null

So it seems that they're not being uninstalled for some reason. What the
hell are reader\writer\serverComp65 ?

I don't get anything which says stuff like Disallowing uninstallation of
component...since another client exists

Even using regsvr32 (yes I shouldn't use this either - I know) to reg/unreg
the DLLs still leaves them behind on uninstall.

What can I do?

I don't like ALLUSERS=2 because it's indeterminate depending on the

Agreed -- major upgrades shouldn't use ALLUSERS=2. For that matter, most 
products shouldn't use ALLUSERS=2.


I believe RemoveExistingProducts is best sequenced just after 
InstallInitialize for robustness.




I generally agree, though in this case it was specifically to prevent 
the assets behind components from being removed if they don't have 
explicit upgrade support.


Matthew, logging will indicate how MSI handled the upgrade and show if 
there was an error or ALLUSERS mismatch.

It sounds like the CA isn't deferred. If a CA has a dependency on the 
files being installed, it must be deferred so it executes after the 
files are actually copied to the machine.

 You can create several MSI packages (one for each language) and use

That's what the Torch tool does (part of the new patch-building tools in
