Re: [WiX-users] How to install a new user?
Thank You very much Phill! You're absolutely right and i had totally forgotten, that there is a tiny difference between german and english OS. I always tried to add my user to the group Administrators but it had to be Administratoren. I heeded Your advice and used Your C#-code in my GUI-ViewModel to read the names of the local groups Administrators and Users. Then i defined two bundle-variables, which get the names of the local groups and - finally - i give the variables to the MsiProperties. That works; my new user was created and added to the adminstrators group - as i could see with the tool lusrmgr.msc. Thanks a lot Phill! I wish You merry christmas and a happy new year! -- View this message in context: http://windows-installer-xml-wix-toolset.687559.n2.nabble.com/How-to-install-a-new-user-tp7598529p7598619.html Sent from the wix-users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- Download BIRT iHub F-Type - The Free Enterprise-Grade BIRT Server from Actuate!

Re: [WiX-users] Options for pausing the download and installation in wix custom BootStrapper
So far as I can understand, the only place in the wix source where the UX can indicate to Burn to suspend by returning Result.Suspend is in OnExecutePackageComplete. It looks to me like the only option in OnCacheAcquireProgress is to cancel or continue. Some of the other Cache handlers allow the UX to signal retry. It looks to me like the Suspend flag is only related to the Apply phase and not the Acquire phase. This is just from my search of the code so I may have missed something. I have not found a way to pause downloading a file. -- View this message in context: http://windows-installer-xml-wix-toolset.687559.n2.nabble.com/Options-for-pausing-the-download-and-installation-in-wix-custom-BootStrapper-tp7596512p7598621.html Sent from the wix-users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- Download BIRT iHub F-Type - The Free Enterprise-Grade BIRT Server from Actuate!

Re: [WiX-users] 1 as the progress message at the end of an install
Thanks Phil, So the only way to get rid of it is to recompile wix with the fix? Thanks Phil Wilson wrote That text is a template from the WiX ActionText for copying the files, it might be for the InstallFiles action. It should be a template with parameter number in square brackets, maybe not exactly this: File:[1], Directory:[9], Size:[6] but similar. To get to the point, I'd guess that the parameter number is not is square brackets so you get the number 1. --- Phil Wilson On Mon, Dec 15, 2014 at 9:58 PM, victorwhiskey lt; victorhwhiskey@ gt; wrote: Hello, I've been wondering this for awhile now.

Re: [WiX-users] 1 as the progress message at the end of an install
Look for it in the logs, to see where it's happening. Odds are someone (is this a MSI you are building) customized their MSI definition with a ProgressText element. -Original Message- From: victorwhiskey [mailto:victorhwhis...@yahoo.com] Sent: Wednesday, December 17, 2014 3:39 PM To: wix-users@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: Re: [WiX-users] 1 as the progress message at the end of an install Thanks Phil, So the only way to get rid of it is to recompile wix with the fix?

Re: [WiX-users] Deploying multiple cultures using Burn/MSI(s). Wix 3.9 issue??
This worked well. Thank you.James From: Phill Hogland [via Windows Installer XML (WiX) toolset] ml-node+s687559n7598508...@n2.nabble.com To: James unk...@yahoo.com Sent: Tuesday, 9 December 2014, 14:30 Subject: Re: Deploying multiple cultures using Burn/MSI(s). Wix 3.9 issue?? Define a variable in your bundle, detect the culture in your BA, and set this variable (or use one of the Burn built-in language variables). You could take different approaches here, but the result is that you use the variable in your InstallCondition to determine which of the msi packages will be installed (or use the information in the OnPlanPackageBegin handler to select whether a particular package will be installed or not.) In the example you would replace 'App' with 'Final_SF1', I assume. When you add the following to your chain, all of the PackageGroupRef related to specific cultures, in the example, are included in your chain in the sequence that you authored them. Chain ...Prerequisites ...other stuff PackageGroupRef Id='Final_SF1' Then you need to author the other parameters of the MsiPackage elements so that burn can find the msi packages and you have InstallConditions that specify whether the package is installed. I use the following but you might have different requirements. Variable Name='MyNumericVar' Value='1033' Type='numeric' bal:Overridable='yes'/ I set the var in my ba to an lcid. InstallCondition='MyNumericVar=1031' (true when installing de-DE, otherwise not installed) If you reply to this email, your message will be added to the discussion below: http://windows-installer-xml-wix-toolset.687559.n2.nabble.com/Deploying-multiple-cultures-using-Burn-MSI-s-Wix-3-9-issue-tp7596896p7598508.html To unsubscribe from Deploying multiple cultures using Burn/MSI(s).
