[WiX-users] Property entries (Product Name, Product Version, etc) on an installers details tab?

2008-04-23 Thread Steve Jones
Hi,

I notice on some of the installers I have used that the installer files 
detail tab has Product Name, Product Version, Copyright and other useful 
entries - the normal properties available for any exe.

For example, the windows .Net 3.0 installer has these properties defined 
  (dotnetfx3setup.exe).

Is is possible to assign these properties to an msi installer file using 
Wix?

If not is it possible to wrap the msi produced by Wix in an exe and 
assign the assembly's properties as part of the standard exe build.

Thanks, Steve.

2008-04-23 Thread Jason Rivers
what's the point in having the mail list accessible to no subscribed members
anyway?

if someone posts, people generally reply to the list, so the person that
hasn't subscribed wouldn't get the reply.

I am one of those people that has stopped looking at the emails from WiX
Users though, because of the amount of spam, there really is far too much of
it.

[WiX-users] Installing all files in a directory with a single command?

2008-04-23 Thread Richard Amos
Can you instruct WiX to install all files in a directory with a single tag? I'd 
like to do something like the following (InnoSetup):

Source: C:\PRODUCT\EXAMPLES\*.*; DestDir: {app}\EXAMPLES\; CopyMode: 
alwaysoverwrite

I know you can use heat.exe to enumerate the files, if one of the team adds a 
new example, it's handy not to have to remember to update the installer.

[WiX-users] service install - file reference problem though merge module

2008-04-23 Thread Mark Line
Hi,

 

I was hoping someone could help me, firstly I'm using Wix 2.

 

I have some merge modules that I have created, and what I'm trying to do is 
create a service in the msi.

 

I'm using the following code:

 

Component Id=mtmCoreServiceSettings Guid=@NEWGUID@ DiskId=1 
   

ServiceInstall 
Id=pywin32instF218.900F1E9E_3D32_4108_BF7E_A4EDF75831BC Name=MTMAgent 
DisplayName=MTM Agent 

Description=The MTM Agent collects information 
about the host and OSS software it is monitoring

Type=ownProcess Interactive=yes 
Start=auto Vital=yes ErrorControl=normal/

ServiceControl 
Id=pywin32instF218.900F1E9E_3D32_4108_BF7E_A4EDF75831BC Name=MTMAgent 
Stop=both Remove=uninstall Wait=yes/ 



Registry Id=mtmService0 Root=HKLM 
Key=SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Services\Eventlog\Application\MTM Agent\ 
Name=EventMessageFile Type=expandable 
Value=[TARGETDIR]\python25\Lib\site-packages\win32\win32evtlog.pyd /

Registry Id=mtmService1 Root=HKLM 
Key=SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Services\Eventlog\Application\MTM Agent\ 
Name=TypesSupported Type=integer Value=7 /

Registry Id=mtmService2 Action=removeKeyOnUninstall 
Root=HKLM Key=SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Services\Eventlog\Application\MTM 
Agent\/



/Component

 

 

The problem I'm having is the executable is stored within a merge module, the 
example I ran though the ID of the serviceinstall tag must be the same as the 
ID as the ID of the executable.  Any how the msi compiles fine, and looking at 
the msi though Orca it looks fine, however the msi doesn't install the service 
or give any errors?

 

Does anyone have ideas?

 

Thanks for any help in advance

 

Mark

[WiX-users] Skipping the installation of a file if the existing file is newer

2008-04-23 Thread Richard Amos
Is there anyway to skip the installation of a file if the file already exists 
and is newer? I'm thinking, for example, of the case where a DLL in System32 
already exists.

In a similar vein, can you skip the installation of a file if the file already 
exists - regardless of which is newer?

I would imagine that whoever is spamming the list is not intentionally

Re: [WiX-users] Question about variables

2008-04-23 Thread Ryan O'Neill
Turns out the reason why I was having problems with the property being
accessible from the custom action scheduler was because the property was not
all uppercase. I remembered something about uppercase properties being
mentioned and tried it on the offchance, it worked.

 

So CTL_SetDefault below should have been uppercase, my mistake (obviously).

Subject: RE: [WiX-users] Question about variables

 

The dollar sign ($) on the front of the component name MyVbsCa means to use
the value of action state of the component, that is, what is going to be
done to the component.  gt.2 means to check if the action state is
greater than 2, where 2 means not present or installed or being
uninstalled.  There are values 3 (install locally) and 4 (install from
source) for a component, so  2 would mean install locally or install
from source.  So essentially, they are just checking to see if the
component is going to be installed.  See

I'm decoding someone else's setup and it has the following custom action

Plus the following scheduling of that action.

  Custom Action=CA_ActionId Sequence=5904(CTL_SetDefault = 1) AND
$MyVbsCagt;2/Custom

 

From what I understand, $MyVbsCa is a variable but it is not used anywhere
other than those lines above. I can't see that it gets set, so all I can
think of is that it gets set somewhere as a side effect.

 

Am I missing something or does the above not work correctly?

I admin a list where new people are set to moderated until their first post, 
then it can be decided whether to accept and liberate the user or to remove it 
as spam. But this requires extra human work and I don't know if SourceForge 
supports this at all (besides, everything should work by e-mail, by replying to 
prefabricated e-mail addresses in notification letters, going to a web site to 
change settings would be far more hassle). But, as far as I can tell, 
relatively few spammers take the trouble to join a list. Here, they have to 
provide a valid e-mail address, reply to a confirmation mail, and then send the 
spam from the same address, then unsubscribe (but chances are it will be 
removed, anyway, by an admin). Yes, it can be done using disposable addresses 
but spam usually arrives by the single action of blindly targeting the list 
address (probably among a million other addresses, not sent specifically here), 
harvested from somewhere on the web.

There would be another solution to serve the causal user with a single question 
but SourceForge should provide it, too. A web form with captcha and all to 
inject a message into the list. Failing that, tightening the entry would be our 
only chance to keep spam at bay.

John Vottero asked:

Absolutely nothing, but spammers are (generally) a lazy bunch and won't
do anything more than they have to. Most of the other SourceForge based
groups I subscribe to are locked to subscriber only posting, and they
have *significantly* lower spam levels. (I suspect they only get spammed
when a subscriber's machine is turned into a zombie.)

Re: [WiX-users] Property entries (Product Name, Product Version, etc) on an installers details tab?

2008-04-23 Thread Chad Petersen
I'm on Windows XP Pro, so this might differ on other OSes, but when I
right click on one of my MSI and choose Properties and then go to the
Summary tab I see Title, Subject, Author, Category, Keywords, Comments.

He me, on this installer I'm looking at, all are populated except for
Category. Of the ones that are populated they are likely coming from the
Package/ element. The Description attribute seems to correlate to the
Subject. The Manufactuer seems to correlate to the Author. And the
Comments seems to correspond to the Comments. Not sure about the others.

Hi,

I notice on some of the installers I have used that the installer files 
detail tab has Product Name, Product Version, Copyright and other useful

entries - the normal properties available for any exe.

For example, the windows .Net 3.0 installer has these properties defined

  (dotnetfx3setup.exe).

Is is possible to assign these properties to an msi installer file using

Wix?

If not is it possible to wrap the msi produced by Wix in an exe and 
assign the assembly's properties as part of the standard exe build.

Thanks, Steve.

I do something similar but it's an automatic system.  If an unsubscribed 
user posts then on their first post they get an email asking if they 
really wanted to post to the mailing list (with link to normal legal 
stuff saying it's public information etc. - we have had the odd occasion 
of people who think that I can magically remove their posts from the 
inboxes of everyone on the list!).  This has eliminated incoming email 
spam.  As a support list requiring registration is unacceptable in my case.

Confirmation emails are tricky - The server takes measures to make sure 
it's not replying automatically to an obvious fake address.. the normal 
spamassassin, sender verification, SPF, etc. checks are made but I'm 
sure the system could be gamed (although to what end I'm not sure).

OTOH I doubt sourceforge can be configured to do anything that 
sophisticated.  You probably have the ability to set it to members only 
and that's about it.

[WiX-users] using Visual Studio and WiX

2008-04-23 Thread John Doe
ok, so I'm too dumb to know really what questions to ask, but here I am
groping in the dark looking for a candle ...

I've made lots of MSIs using the Wise Installation System, but need to
switch to WiX v.2 (not v.3).  What benefit will I get from driving WiX from
within Visual Studio?  I don't use Visual Studio for development myself,
though my pc has multiple versions installed (VS6, VS2005, and VS2008) to
support product builds. The .WXS install scripts i'll be supporting have an
accompanying .SLN file so they were presumably made in VS.

Is there a tutorial or similar for using Visual Studio for WiX?  Or any
handy hints somewhere?  (I'm currently Getting Started in the nice WiX tut
at http://www.tramontana.co.hu/wix/, using a text editor and doing the
compiling etc from the command prompt.)

thanks!

My vote is to require registration. 

It's really no big deal to sign up for a list, and I don't think it
would make getting started significantly harder (newbie here, speaking
from current painful experience -- probably signing up would give me a
buzz of achievement that I'm not yet getting from WiX ;-)

There's still a problem if you prefer to use the newsgroup interface (I'm using Thnderbird).  You
can't delete messages, and the best I think I can do is move them into a separate folder.  That
might have to suffice if we can't filter them out before they hit the list.

  I have been thinking the same. I found a post who suggested the
following if you use gmail:
  

Instead of web-based mail services, just use a good, traditional e-mail client with proper Bayesian spam filter (eg. Thunderbird) and it will eliminate 98-99% of the spam after the initial learning period. It will also adapt to languages other than English, it might take slightly more time (a couple of dozen additional messages) but it will be just fine. You can manually handle the small number of false positives and negatives.

[WiX-users] Property replacement issue with WixUIExtension and XmlFile

2008-04-23 Thread David . Parrish
I?m having a problem with value replacement in a deployed XML file.

I have a property defined (?DataValueProperty?) and I allow the user to 
modify it in a dialog in the UI.  The next dialog shows the successfully 
modified value.  But when I go to write the value via XmlFile, the 
deployed XML file does not get updated.

What happens is the XmlFile custom action updates the xml file with the 
old property value.  The new property value set by the Edit control is 
being ignored.

I am using version 3.0.4014.0 and I have searched the bug database but 
have not found anything relevant to what I am seeing.

Here is the property I'm modifying:

Property Id=DataValueProperty Value=Default WiX value /

Here is the component code:

Component Id=data Guid=C685777C-5FED-4593-9B9D-9EED1DDECF8E
File Id=data Source=data.xml /
util:XmlFile Id=modifyData Action=setValue
File=[INSTALLLOCATION]data.xml
ElementPath=//dataFile/data 
Name=value
Value=[DataValueProperty]/
  /Component

Here is the UI code, I am adding a custom dialog to the WixUIExtension UI:

Dialog Id=CustomDlg Width=370 Height=270 Title=[ProductName] 
[Setup] NoMinimize=yes
Control Id=PropertyL Type=Text X=45 Y=140 Width=200

Are WixUIExtension and WixUtilExtension compatiable to work in this way?

I found sharp develop quite a handy ide for writing Wix 2.0, its free
http://www.icsharpcode.net/OpenSource/SD/  

 

Although when things got more complexed with a lot of different things being
built I used gnu make to handle multiple dependences for a project. I guess
with visual studio 2005 and above you could use msbuild to aid with
dependences and so forth, depends what your most comfortable with.

Subject: [WiX-users] using Visual Studio and WiX

 

ok, so I'm too dumb to know really what questions to ask, but here I am
groping in the dark looking for a candle ...

I've made lots of MSIs using the Wise Installation System, but need to
switch to WiX v.2 (not v.3).  What benefit will I get from driving WiX from
within Visual Studio?  I don't use Visual Studio for development myself,
though my pc has multiple versions installed (VS6, VS2005, and VS2008) to
support product builds. The .WXS install scripts i'll be supporting have an
accompanying .SLN file so they were presumably made in VS.

Is there a tutorial or similar for using Visual Studio for WiX?  Or any
handy hints somewhere?  (I'm currently Getting Started in the nice WiX tut
at http://www.tramontana.co.hu/wix/, using a text editor and doing the
compiling etc from the command prompt.)

thanks!
Alan

Re: [WiX-users] Property replacement issue with WixUIExtension andXmlFile

2008-04-23 Thread Matthew Janulewicz
I would try three things:


1) Your ElementPath has a double slash at the beginning. I believe this is 
incorrect. We use XmlFile extensively. As an example, here's what one of our 
nodes looks like:

util:XmlFile Id=Local_ErrorDir_nostart
Action=setValue
ElementPath=/configuration/appSettings/[EMAIL PROTECTED]'ErrorDir'[\]]/@value
File=[INSTALLDIR]TransDetailImporterService\TransDetailImportService.exe.config
Value=[[TARGET_ENVIRONMENT].ERROR_DIR] /

The file snippet this is editing looks like this:

?xml version=1.0 encoding=utf-8?
configuration
  appSettings
   add key=ErrorDir value=\\Encrypt\failed/
  /appSettings
/configuration



2) Check the syntax of the ElementPath from above against yours. You need 
the full path and parameter. The syntax is pretty precise in what it will 
accept.

3) It's also possible that your variable (I may have the wrong terminology 
here) needs to be public, in other words ALL_CAPS. (not likely though, but it 
works for us.)

When all else fails the output log from msiexec usually gives a good indication 
of what's going wrong with XmlFile call:

Msiexec /I foo.msi /l* out.txt

Lastly, I have no idea where I stole this script from, but I found a JavaScript 
file online that can validate your ElementPath and point you to where any typos 
are. I use this thing almost every time I have to edit a new xml file with Wix:

-- begin code validate_xml_path.js
if (2  WScript.Arguments.length)
{
WScript.Echo(Must specify both the file and the XSL Path to query.);
WScript.Quit(1);
}
WScript.Echo(Opening File:  + WScript.Arguments(0));
var xmlDoc = new ActiveXObject(Msxml2.DOMDocument.3.0);
xmlDoc.async = false;
xmlDoc.load(WScript.Arguments(0));
if (0 != xmlDoc.parseError.errorCode)
{
var myErr = xmlDoc.parseError;
WScript.Echo(You have error  + myErr.reason);
}
else
{
WScript.Echo(Query:  + WScript.Arguments(1));
WScript.Echo();
// xmlDoc.setProperty(SelectionLanguage, XPath);
currNode = xmlDoc.selectSingleNode(WScript.Arguments(1));
if (null == currNode)
{
WScript.Echo(Nothing found.);
}
else
{
WScript.Echo(currNode.text);
}
}
-- end code

Subject: [WiX-users] Property replacement issue with WixUIExtension andXmlFile


I'm having a problem with value replacement in a deployed XML file.

I have a property defined ('DataValueProperty') and I allow the user to modify 
it in a dialog in the UI.  The next dialog shows the successfully modified 
value.  But when I go to write the value via XmlFile, the deployed XML file 
does not get updated.

What happens is the XmlFile custom action updates the xml file with the old 
property value.  The new property value set by the Edit control is being 
ignored.

I am using version 3.0.4014.0 and I have searched the bug database but have not 
found anything relevant to what I am seeing.

Here is the property I'm modifying:

Property Id=DataValueProperty Value=Default WiX value /

Here is the component code:

Component Id=data Guid=C685777C-5FED-4593-9B9D-9EED1DDECF8E

Here is the UI code, I am adding a custom dialog to the WixUIExtension UI:

2008-04-23 Thread David . Parrish
Thanks for the quick reply. 

I believe that the XmlFile is working except that it is using a value that 
is set BEFORE the UI section updates the property.

XmlFile changes the value to 'Default WiX value' which is what the 
property 'DataValueProperty' is initial set to.  But I want the XmlFile to 
change the value to whatever the user enters in the UI.  The property 
seems to be updated according to the UI screens, but the XmlFile still 
uses the old value.

I just had to include the tlb file, which is used to reference against, but is 
not used at run-time, just compile-time.

I ran regasm and had it output to a .reg file and compared all the entries - 
they matched up.  So it should be all good.  The only problem is, it doesn't.  
If I install and try and use the COM object it doesn't work. If I run regasm on 
my dll it works again.  So as far as I can tell regasm does something else 
apart from only the registry entries.  Am I wrong here?

I tried to put a typelib entry inside the File tag for my dll, but that just 
caused the installer to fail.  I'm not even sure that I should be use the 
typelib tag.

Thanks in advance
Jaco

I think that having to subscribe to wix-users is a reasonable
prerequisite for people wishing to post.

[WiX-users] Negatives in going to 3.0.3526 or higher from 2.x

2008-04-23 Thread Benjamin Myers
My company makes about 50 setups/year with WiX, and we have stuck with 2.x 
version.  We need some of the 3.x functionality but I have to convince 
management it is safe. Other than the fact 3.x is still Beta are there any real 
dangers in upgrading our schemas and implementing a higher version to build?
 
Thanks in advance for your opinion(s),
Tabrel

Re: [WiX-users] wix mailing lists open to public = more spam

2008-04-23 Thread Jeremy Farrell
Require registration to post. WiX isn't the sort of subject that people 
typically want to ask a question or two about and then forget. Most newbies 
have been tasked with using WiX, so would be well advised to follow the list 
anyway. For the few people who have valid reasons to ask a question or two then 
go away, subscribing just isn't a big deal and they can unsubscribe as soon as 
their questions have run their course. Given the list netiquette of replying to 
the list rather than the individual, they need to be subscribed to get email 
responses to their questions anyway. It's a common practice on technical lists 
to require registration to post.

 There's still a problem if you prefer to use the newsgroup 
 interface (I'm using Thnderbird).  You
 can't delete messages, and the best I think I can do is move 
 them into a separate folder.  That
 might have to suffice if we can't filter them out before they 
 hit the list.

  Martin,
 
  I have been thinking the same. I found a post who suggested the
  following if you use gmail:
 
  Instead of web-based mail services, just use a good, 
 traditional e-mail client with proper Bayesian spam filter 
 (eg. Thunderbird) and it will eliminate 98-99% of the spam 
 after the initial learning period. It will also adapt to 
 languages other than English, it might take slightly more 
 time (a couple of dozen additional messages) but it will be 
 just fine. You can manually handle the small number of false 
 positives and negatives.
 
  Bye,

Re: [WiX-users] Installing all files in a directory with a single command?

No. There's no safe way to generate setup authoring that doesn't violate 
MSI component and patching rules.




I'd like to do something like the following (InnoSetup):

Source: C:\PRODUCT\EXAMPLES\*.*; DestDir: {app}\EXAMPLES\; 
CopyMode: alwaysoverwrite


I know you can use heat.exe to enumerate the files, if one of the team 
adds a new example, it's handy not to have to remember to update the 
installer.
