Re: [WiX-users] heat extension - COM exe servers and 64-bit COM support
If you can wait a few more weeks, this might be an interesting thing to incorporate into WiX v4. If interested, ping me and I can connect you with the correct people at Outercurve (who maintain the WiX assignment process now) to get the process rolling.

Lately I updated it with support for 64-bit COM servers (DLL and EXE). I've gotten the go-ahead to clean it up and post it as an open-source project. I need to remove the company-specific namespaces, make things a little more generic, add some better comments, perhaps an architecture doc, etc. My question has to do with the open-source part of it, since I haven't done any of that before. I notice there is a WiX-contrib project on codeplex. Is that a good place to start for something like this ? Thanks for any gotchas, pointers or other info ! -Rob -- Everyone hates slow websites.

Re: [WiX-users] Creating a simply installer copying a set of files to an existing directory
This is certainly possible. 1. The WixUI_InstallDir built-in dialog set will prompt the user for an installation location. http://wix.sourceforge.net/manual-wix3/WixUI_installdir.htm You may even be able to detect the location of the existing tool, if you know the MSI product codes of the versions you are targeting or if the tool writes its installation location to the registry. 2. This is standard functionality. 3. Are any actions required here ?

The installer wraps a plugin (consisting of a set of XML files) for a popular CASE tool. I would prefer if this can be done using a combination of WiX with an MSI package as the output so that it can be deployed easily to corporat environments. The installer must do the following: 1. Ask the user for the target directory in which the existing application is installed (defaulting to c:\program files\AppName) 2. Copy two XML files into c:\program files\AppName\SubDir -- and create SubDir if it doesn't already exist 3. Finish the install. Is this possible? Thanks.

Re: [WiX-users] SFXCA: Failed to get requested CLR info.
Probably not, this was a project with its origins in the first release of DTF. I added app.config because that is what I would do with an application, it was only when I created a new custom action project from the template that I thought that the name might have been relevant and then I checked the build options. I suppose the build could force you to have a correctly named config file, other than that it would need my patented psychic compiler that does what I think rather than what I coded!

Error code 0x80131700 SFXCA: Ensure that the proper version of the .NET Framework is installed, or that there is a matching supportedRuntime element in CustomAction.config. If you are binding to .NET 4 or greater add useLegacyV2RuntimeActivationPolicy=true to the startup element. My CA was built with WiX 3.6 and the CustomAction.config looks like this: ?xml version=1.0 encoding=utf-8 ? configuration startup useLegacyV2RuntimeActivationPolicy=true supportedRuntime version=v4.0 / supportedRuntime version=v2.0.50727/ /startup /configuration I have tried setting the target framework to 2.0 and 4.0 but get the same error. Can anyone suggest why this is failing?

Re: [WiX-users] Detecting full .NET4
Hi, This is what I do: !-- Check for .NET 4.0 -- PropertyRef Id=NETFRAMEWORK40FULL/ Condition Message=Requires the Microsoft .NET Framework 4.0. To download the requirement please visit: http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/default.aspx then restart the $(var.ProductName) setup.

Subject: Re: [WiX-users] Detecting full .NET4 You need to do more than just reference the property.

I have a change based on wix http://wix.sourceforge.net/manual-wix3/wixnetfxextension.htm docs to use this property value: PropertyRef Id=NETFRAMEWORK40FULL/ instead of: PropertyRef Id=NETFRAMEWORK40CLIENT/ But it doesn't actually work. It still thinks that I don't have full .NET4 installed even though I installed it from herehttp://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=17718. In fact, installing full .NET4 from there creates a .NET Extended entry in the list of installed programs viewed through Control Panel but not .NET Full. However, there is no property for .NET Extended. Thanks Dushyant -- Monitor your physical, virtual and cloud infrastructure from a single web console.

Re: [WiX-users] Skip welcome screen for WixUI_Mondo
Neil, Thanks for your reply. I already looked at the link you provided; it is a good example of how to skip a dialog by not publishing it and changing the back and next controls to point somewhere else; but the welcome dlg is the first one and it is called by some install sequence event not by a previous dialog, so I don't know how to do it in this case.

Re: [WiX-users] Skip welcome screen for WixUI_Mondo
Why don't you just replace the first one with the one you want but give it the welcome name? Neil Neil, Thanks for your reply.
