[WiX-users] Custom BA or not?

2013-05-07 Thread David White
What are the general rules for writing a custom BA or not? I have the custom BA 
installing v4 already and do some code to figure out if other requirements are 
there. If I can customize a UI through Wix (and use to capture parameters) what 
do I really need a BA for? Are there some good rules of thumb to use?

[WiX-users] MSI not on top from bootstrapper

2013-05-05 Thread David White
I have a custom BA (modeled after a popular XAML example of the web) built that 
gathers some parameters and kicks off MSI. Does the kicked off MSI always end 
up in the background? Any way to make it appear in the foreground?

[WiX-users] Custom bootstrapper and Server 2008 R2

2013-04-26 Thread David White
I am building a bootstrapper and MSI for a server install that will run Windows 
Server 2008 R2 and up. We are testing a raw install (meaning you just installed 
base Srv2008R2 with no features yet installed). In this scenario, only 
v2.0.50727 is installed on the server. When I build the custom UI on XAML (as 
every example does) it fails with 0x8013101b. Rob says to use fuslogw and 
though I think I know why: my project is built on v4. XAML itself needs at 
least v3 to run (which we don't have).

So the question is, how do I write my own bootstrapper UI when all I have is 
v2? I have seen no windows forms apps. Can I write a simple Windows forms app? 
Or do I have to go to C++ where I can link the runtime with it?

[WiX-users] WiX install fails - VS Std Ed or higher required

2008-01-23 Thread David White
I am trying to install from Wix-3.0.2925.0.msi on Vista Ultimate with
UAC turned off. Why am I getting this message:

  Votive, the WiX project and editor package for Visual Studio,
  cannot be installed because Visual Studio Standard Edition
  or higher is not installed.

This is despite the fact that I have Visual Studio Team System 2008
Development Edition installed.
