Re: [WiX-users] Wix bug?
Thank you. Something must be wrong though. This issue is being reported by everyone on my team. Do you know how Windows Installer actually gets this information? Does it make a Win32 call for the locale information, or is it a flag inside the MSI itself? Brad Thompson.

Phil Wilson replied 57 minutes (attached) after your post. Short version: MSI shows that dialog based on system/user locale while it's opening the .msi file to find what language it's marked as and whether it has its own UI or will need to rely on MSI's internal UI. -- sig://boB http://joyofsetup.com/ - This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.

[WiX-users] Two questions on SelectionTree and Features.
I have two questions. I am using the SelectionTree control to allow customization. When I click on the top level of the tree it has the following entries: Will be installed on local hard drive Entire feature will be installed on local hard drive - Will be installed to run from the network Entire feature will be installed to run from the network - Feature will be installed when required - Entire feature will be unavailable. Our team does not want to support network installs or "when required" installs. Is there a way to remove these from the list? My second question: Is there a way to automatically set a feature to be installed based on other features without using SetInstallLevel?

Re: [WiX-users] Having trouble with Wix V2 (title change)
Installing 1.1 SDK and .Net 3.5 fixed the build issue. Thank you.
However Votive still does not work. I am using Votive-2.0.5325.0.
Loading any wixproj project into VS it leaves the solution pane completely
empty. It doesn't even list the name of the solution.
When I load the WXS file directly, I get a dialog that says "Attempted to read
or write protected memory. This is often an indication that other memory is
corrupt"

Subject: RE: Having trouble with Wix V3
Which version of Votive are you trying to use for your first problem? It was
unclear whether you're using v2 or v3.
As far as the build failures go, Wix 2.0 requires the .NET Framework 1.1 SDK
(which is different than the runtime). You're right in that the runtime is
installed with the OS, but you actually need to install the SDK as well
(available at
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=9B3A2CA6-3647-4070-9F41-A333C6B9181D&displaylang=en).
For the 3.0 error, it looks like we might be requiring .NET 3.5, but that
should be fixed. In the meantime, installing .NET 3.5 may help you get past
that error.

Subject: [WiX-users] Having trouble with Wix V3
I am having a couple of problems with Wix V2. They may be related. I've
included my system configuration at the bottom.
First thing, I cannot get Votive to create a valid Wix project file.
Installation of Votive was successful (Version 5325). After installation, when
I open Visual Studio I can see the new Wizard for creating Wix Projects. When I
use the wizard to create a Wix project it has a problem.
The status bar says "Creating project "WixProject1.wixproj"...project creation
was successful", but there is nothing at all in the Solution Explorer. If I
look at the WixProject1.wixproj file, it looks OK (see attached), but VS
doesn't do anything with it. Closing and reloading the project just gets
"ready" in the status bar.
Secondly, I cannot compile the Delivery project.
dtools debug succeeded.
wix debug failed.
wix20debug failed.
WIX 2.0 fails to compile with: "Building WiX requires .NET Framework 1.1 SDK".
However, I know it is installed. It's part of the OS.
Wix 3.0 fails with:
Using NANT from the C:\Delivery\Dev\wix directory:
