[WiX-users] "ifndef" not working

2007-05-24 Thread Bei Liu (Volt)
I have wxs include the following:

  
  
  

  
  
  

I expect the version will be 1.0.0.0 if environment variable "Version" is not 
defined and
When environment variable "Version" is defined for example 2.0.0.0, the version 
will be the 2.0.0.0.

However, I always get 1.0.0.0, no matter what the value of the environment 
variable "Version" is.

Can someone please let me know how to fix it?

Thanks much,

[WiX-users] custom action from network share doesn't work

2007-05-21 Thread Bei Liu (Volt)
Hello,

In my Wix, I searched for the registry to find the path for a exe, I then call 
this exe in my custom action [EXEDIR] the.exe.

The custom action worked fine when running the msi from my local machine - 
return 1.

However, when running from a network share, it failed - returned 1603.

Should I use [#EXEDIR] or [!EXEDIR] to get it work from the network share(I 
tried, didn't work)? Or have I have to write a custom action for that?

Thanks,

What type of custom action are you using? The proper return value depends on 
the type. If MSI is logging a 0, then it couldn't execute the CA.
It's type 2 custom action. I'm sure it ran successfully, because it has command 
line window(I haven't silent it yet), it said " ... successfully."
When run separately from the command line window, the errorlevel is 0.

On the contrary, if it didn't run(strangely, this happens when I set the 
rollback attribute), it returned 1 in the msi log file.

When use "AsyncWait" it didn't give error dialog. When use "check", it gave the 
error dialog.

Which error dialog?
Error 1722
[cid:image001.png@01C773D1.B7F4C7A0]
The installation rolled back by default (I didn't set the rollback attribute, 
because it just makes custom action ignored) after this dialog. (install 
sequence is 6501 which is before InstallFinalize)


I'm not quite understand "two" custom actions, can you give an example?

All the WiX custom actions like XmlConfig support rollback. The MSI SDK 
documents how they have to configured.
Can you confirm if the following is the right syntax, are 1) and 2) the two 
custom actions you mention before?

1)   
..



 2)

See "Rollback Custom Actions" in the MSI SDK. You need two custom actions for 
every deferred CA: One that performs the action and one, scheduled immediately 
before the other, that rolls it back.

WiX v3 runs ICE validations by default; some validations are written in 
VBScript so if your script engine isn't valid, you won't be able to run 
validation. You can suppress validation using the -sval switch.

 1.  Add a UIRef element to your installer source code, using an Id attribute

 1.  Add the WixUIExtension extension with the appropriate culture switch to

So should the argument be put in the inner text?

 /a /b "[CDE]fgh.ijk"   

Thanks,

AFAIK, whatever you want.  Depends on what the service you’re configuring does.

[WiX-users] WIXUI_INSTALLDIR doesn't work

2007-02-23 Thread Bei Liu (Volt)
Hello,
I'm trying to use



in my wxs file, I got the following error:

-- No Warnings ---
 --- Build Errors ---
build.proj : E:\delivery\Dev\wix2.0_public\src\ui\wixui\InstallDirDlg.wxs line (
0, 0) : Unresolved reference to symbol 'Property:WIXUI_INSTALLDIR' in section 'F
ragment:'.

But if I use WixUI_Mondo, WixUI_FeatureTree and WixUI_Minimal, they all worked.

Does anyone know what caused the error?

Thanks much,

[WiX-users] Is system folder property-ProgemMenuFolder compatible with Vista?

2007-01-05 Thread Bei Liu (Volt)
I'm trying to run the sample in the 
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/dnwingen/html/wixsetup.asp
 on a Vista machine. I have admin rights on this local machine.

When use the "ProgramMenuFolder" in the wxs file as following:


...





I got the following error:

Error  1  There was an error importing table: Shortcut with 
file: C:\Users\a-beliu\AppData\Local\Temp\ql62jice\Shortcut.idt

Do you happen to know what cause the "shortcut" error? (The file itself defined 
in the File tag was created in the setup application and installed correctly 
without the "Shortcut" tag.)

Thanks,

Bei
