Re: [WiX-users] Multiple entries in ARP

2012-08-21 Thread Neil Sleightholm

This is with the standard BA. With an MSI you can get the same behaviour but it 
is easy to override and by default it would warn you that an existing product 
was installed. I find this a real pain when testing as usually I would link the 
version to the version of the primary MSI and this doesn't change. I'll raise 
this as a bug but I guess you won't want to fix it until 3.7. 

I also have a custom BA based on StdBA could you give me a hint where the 
detection happens?

It's up to the BA. Presumably the UpgradeCode is the same (since you just
rebuilt) so the BA is notified that a "related bundle" with the exact same 
version is on the machine. The BA can decide that is fine and let the new 
bundle install SxS.

You can get the same behavior with Windows installer packages by changing the 
ProductCode and having the Upgrade table not detect same version.

Re: [WiX-users] Windows 7 Ultimate encryption - MSI fails

It appears the Windows Installer is dying. It looks like Burn is handling
the files just fine. Have you tried just installing the MSIs without burn
on encrypted folders?  This could be a Windows Installer bug.

Re: [WiX-users] Best way to remove a feature in another installed app at install time

2012-08-21 Thread Rob Mensching

That API only works on the currently installing MSI not on other MSIs.
There is nothing wrong with installing your product SxS but if that is your
design, you'll want to evaluate your use of shared resources (such as
registry keys) because they'll just get broken in lots of different ways.
That's basically just a "law of gravity" type problem.

Re: [WiX-users] Best way to remove a feature in another installed app at install time

2012-08-21 Thread Matt O'Connell

OK fair enough. I was hoping not to have to patch the older product if 
possible. I was hoping WiX might do something like could be done via the 
automation interface'sFeatureRequestState  
property.
  
> Is the user expected to remove the old product on
> their own?
Yep, we give the users an extensive 'suck it and see' period in which they can 
return in which users frequently run old and new side by side by side. Our file 
formats weren't previously forwards compatible so it would have been a bit rude 
to lock them in to the latest version. Of course this means we often hear about 
users having all previous versions installed.  :-(

Thanks for the pointers.

Re: [WiX-users] Multiple entries in ARP

2012-08-21 Thread Neil Sleightholm

This seems to be reproducible, if you rebuild that package with the same 
version number a duplicate entry appears in ARP - this feels like a bug to me 
but before I report it I wonder if anyone has a different opinion.

Re: [WiX-users] Best way to remove a feature in another installed app at install time

2012-08-21 Thread Rob Mensching

AFAIK, you can't really do that. You could try to condition the Feature and
then set something in the new install that causes the old installs Feature
condition to evaluate to false and then have the user repair the old
install. That *might* get the feature to turn off (since it's condition is
false). Of course, the user experience is pretty odd as well.
Shared registry keys that point at paths are often susceptible to this
problem. Although, I can't say I quite understand your upgrade path if you
don't use major upgrades. Is the user expected to remove the old product on
their own?

Use a property in your dialog title e.g. Title="Welcome to the [ProductName]

Then just make sure that you've set that property before showing your

[WiX-users] Windows 7 Ultimate encryption - MSI fails

2012-08-21 Thread Wesley Manning

Hi,

I have a co-worker that installed Windows 7 Ultimate and it appears that 
encryption was set as when he downloaded our burn package (which installs 
several MSIs) its files were encrypted.  
(1) When he tried to install it, the encryption caused the package to fail 
install.  
(2) When he unencrypted the install files he downloaded it still failed to 
install.  Likely the temp files created during install were encrypted.
(3) When he disabled encryption, the package installed successfully.

Another user on this mailing list had the same problem.  See here: 
http://www.mail-archive.com/wix-users@lists.sourceforge.net/msg26158.html.  He 
theorizes that the SYSTEM does not have decryption access to the MSI file.

Did anybody else see this and if so is there a workaround?Should I create a 
bug report?  Wanted to check first  before I go create a bug report.

Hi WiX users

I've got a product B that shares a (hidden) feature with it's predecessor A. If 
I install A over B the registry we use toggles back the the old app location. 
Since we may want to have update B's feature at some point this is bad.

My company doesn't like to uninstall the old product via major upgrades so what

[WiX-users] Best way to remove a feature in another installed app at install time

2012-08-21 Thread Matt O'Connell

Hi WiX users

I've got a product B that shares a (hidden) feature with it's 
predecessor A. If I install A over B the registry we use toggles back 
the the old app location. Since we may want to have update B's feature 
at some point this is bad.

My company doesn't like to uninstall the old product via major upgrades 
so what is the best way in WiX for me to remove the feaure in app A that 
app B wants to also install?

Many Thanks

Re: [WiX-users] Custom Action before UI WIX

2012-08-21 Thread Natalie Carr

Can anyone please tell me how to change the product name that shows up on
the UI to the property value I retrieve from my custom action. I have tried
everything that I can think of and still no joy. :(

Schedule the custom action in the InstallUISequence, similar to what's shown
in the wix tutorial but set, After="AppSearch".

Subject: [WiX-users] Custom Action before UI WIX

Hi,

Is there any way of running registry checks and calling a custom action
before the first UI is shown in wix. The reason I'm asking is that I have a
custom action that searches the registry and a few other things and comes up
with the product name, I then need to imply this into my installer. Is this
possible? I was able to do it in installshield and am sure there is some way
I just can't figure it out nor find any information online.

Kind Regards,

Natalie Carr

Hi guys,

I'm trying to install a windows service.

 The installer files are being collected via heat. Although the service 
installs perfectly, it's not removed again upon uninstall.

I went through the log file but cannot pin point anything to be wrong can you 
guys please point me to an answer.

I've attached the log files and the heat generated output.


Thank you.

Thank you, I will try that. I was reading up on transforms, would this be
correct to change the product name? Thanks

Good morning,

I tried that:

  
  
  

The redirector appears to be applying to the property regardless.
