Re: [WiX-users] Burn and Upgrades
Ok. It would be cool if you could use a Burn-Package like a Msi-Package and it would know, if it is allowed to perform an upgrade. I have tested yet, that the WiXStBA stops with an error, if one tries to install an older bundle over a newer yet installed one. So I was hoping that you can specify the allowed versions in order to get a better failing message. But now it seems to me, that I need a custom BA if I want to achieve that goal? For our upgrades it could be possible, that a Msi-Package is sufficient - but first of all I am not sure about that yet and on the other hand I am not sure if it is possible to make the full installation via a burn bundle and the upgrades only via a Msi. As my C# knowledges are not so profound yet, I would like to avoid writing a custom BA... -Ursprüngliche Nachricht- Von: Rob Mensching [mailto:r...@robmensching.com] Gesendet: Montag, 1.

Re: [WiX-users] Custom Bootstrapper Application: Problem whentrying todetect if Bundle is already installed
Thanks for your advises.
There are two problems with WixBundleInstalled:
1) I have to distinguish 3 states: version is same, current version is lower
than installed version, current version is higher than installed version. But
WixBundleInstalled only has value 0 or 1.
2) Which is even worse: I can't get this to work. I tried
var x =
_bootstrapperApplication.Engine.StringVariables[WixBundleInstalled];
and
var y =
_bootstrapperApplication.Engine.NumericVariables[WixBundleInstalled];
Both returned 0. When I handle the DetectRelatedBundle event however, I see
that the bundle is already installed in the current version (which is
correct)...

The wixstdba uses WixBundleInstalled variable to determine maintenance mode. I
would recommend doing the same.

Subject: [WiX-users] Custom Bootstrapper Application: Problem when
trying todetect if Bundle is already installed
Hi there,
I have a problem when trying to detect whether my Bundle is already
installed. My usecase is as follows:
I am creating a bundle with a custom UI. On startup I need to check
whether my bundle is already installed in the exactly same version to
determine if I have to show the maintenance page (if the versions
match), to block installation(if a newer version is already installed)
or show the install page (else). So I make a call to
_bootstrapperApplication.Engine.Detect();
My first idea now was to handle the event
_bootstrapperApplication.DetectRelatedBundle and somehow determine
whether the productcodes are different. This is not possible as I
can't get the product code of the bundle that is going to be installed.
Then I thought it might be an idea, to check for some package which is
unique for my product. So I added the line
_bootstrapperApplication.DetectPackageComplete = DetectedPackage; (see
below) but it doesn't work as I expected:
private void DetectedPackage(object sender,
DetectPackageCompleteEventArgs e)
{
PackageState.Obsolete
if (e.PackageId.Equals(mypackage,
StringComparison.Ordinal))
{
_state = (e.State == PackageState.Present) ?
InstallationState.DetectedPresent : InstallationState.DetectedAbsent;
}
}
-If for example version 2.8 is installed and the Package in my
Bundle now has version 2.7 it returns PackageState.Absent (or Obsolete?
I can't reproduce it at the moment) which is just fine
-If version 2.8 is installed and the Package in my Bundle now has
version 2.8, too, it syas e.State = PackageState.Present which is
correct, too.
-But if version 2.8 is installed and the Package in my Bundle now
has version 2.9, I get e.State = PackageState.Present and would show
the maintenance page although I would need to show install page and
install the newer version.
Is this intended or is it a bug? Am I getting something wrong?
What I am doing as a workaround is, on DetectRelatedBundle event I
make some very ugly version comparison. Is there any other option?
Any help appreciated, thanks in advance!
Regards,
Sabine

Re: [WiX-users] ExePackage uninstalled on upgrade
More info: Running v1 installs SQL, v2 removes it, v3,4,5 etc installs SQL then immediately removes it! In the log file created for the upgrade there is this entry [1664:16B4][2012-10-01T13:30:31]: Skipping dependency registration on package with no dependency providers: SQLServerExpress. Neil I have a simple burn package that install SQL express and one MSI. The install works the first time I run it but when I upgrade it the SQL package is removed (if I upgrade again it is put back).

[WiX-users] Burn restart behavior
Hi,
I have created a managed bootstrapper using burn which installs one to three
MSIs. One of the packages might require a restart of the system.
What I now do is this:
private void ApplyComplete(object sender, ApplyCompleteEventArgs e)
{
// ..
if (e.Restart == ApplyRestart.RestartInitiated ||
e.Restart == ApplyRestart.RestartRequired)
{
IsRebootRequired = true;
e.Result = Result.Restart;
}
// ...
}
So, in the OnApplyComplete event I basically tell Burn to restart.
However, this is not very user friendly, as the user might want to delay the
restart.
One solution would be to pop up a message box asking the user whether he wants
to restart the computer now or later. But I find that this is not the optimal
solution.
Ideally, main window of the installer should just state that the installation
was successful but a restart is required. It would contain a checkbox, which
the user could check to indicate that he wants to restart the computer
immediately.
The problem is, that I can't tell burn to restart the computer. The only way I
know is the Result property in the OnApplyComplete handler. But that method is
long gone...
Is there another way to tell burn to restart the computer? Or do I have to
implement that on my own?
Kind regards,
Henning Krause

Re: [WiX-users] WixLibs do not seem to work after 3.6 upgrade.
We have 3.6 wixlibs building with no problems and I can't see any relevant bugs in the bugs database. Wix 3.6 was mostly Burn rather than core toolset changes. I wasn't thinking of the strings being bad, so much as the xml elements themselves.

Re: [WiX-users] Burn restart behavior
You can also return IDRESTART from OnShutdown().
On Mon, Oct 1, 2012 at 8:44 AM, Henning Krause m...@henningkrause.euwrote:
Hi,
I have created a managed bootstrapper using burn which installs one to
three MSIs. One of the packages might require a restart of the system.
What I now do is this:
private void ApplyComplete(object sender, ApplyCompleteEventArgs e)
{
// ..
if (e.Restart == ApplyRestart.RestartInitiated ||
e.Restart == ApplyRestart.RestartRequired)
{
IsRebootRequired = true;
e.Result = Result.Restart;
}
// ...
}
So, in the OnApplyComplete event I basically tell Burn to restart.
However, this is not very user friendly, as the user might want to delay
the restart.
One solution would be to pop up a message box asking the user whether he
wants to restart the computer now or later. But I find that this is not the
optimal solution.
Ideally, main window of the installer should just state that the
installation was successful but a restart is required. It would contain a
checkbox, which the user could check to indicate that he wants to restart
the computer immediately.
The problem is, that I can't tell burn to restart the computer. The only
way I know is the Result property in the OnApplyComplete handler. But that
method is long gone...
Is there another way to tell burn to restart the computer? Or do I have to
implement that on my own?
Kind regards,
Henning Krause

Neil It might be appropriate to use MSIPackage/@Permanent and a condition of ConfigRequiresIt and not ProductDetected (set with a product search). If the package was present before the bundle was installed, there's some third party thing using it and you don't know when it's safe to remove (if ever). Only the user would know. With that condition, Burn only installs it if it didn't exist beforehand and I'd presume never removes it if it never installed it.

Re: [WiX-users] ExePackage uninstalled on upgrade

[WiX-users] Burn installing .NET 4.5 Beta
Hi, I've got a simple bundle setup with one msi: ?xml version=1.0 encoding=UTF-8? Wix xmlns=http://schemas.microsoft.com/wix/2006/wi; xmlns:bal=http://schemas.microsoft.com/wix/BalExtension; Bundle Name=My Setup Version=1.0.0.0 Manufacturer=My Company UpgradeCode=SOME_GUID .. Chain PackageGroupRef Id=NetFx45Web / MsiPackage DisplayName=My App SourceFile=$(var.AppMSIProject.TargetPath)/MsiPackage /Chain /Bundle /Wix NetFx45Web is installing .NET Framework 4.5 Beta. The source code src\ext\NetFxExtension\wixlib\NetFx4.5.wxs points to http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=223706 but it should point to http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=225704 according to Microsoft (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee942965.aspx#redist). Is there any way around this aside from re-compiling the source? Thanks Dave -- Don't let slow site performance ruin your business.
