I tested this on windows 2008,2003 and XP, on all of these machine actual ram size is 2048MB But in wix it shows PhysicalMemory = 2005. So it's causing problem for me. I can't put PhysicalMemory >= 2048 condition. so what's the solution? Please help. Thank you in advance.

[WiX-users] sqlscript without hardcoded binary key
Hello Every1, my client asked me to make the installer use a script to install database, the problem his he wants to give the script during the installation UI sequence so I can't use sqlscript because it demands a hardcoded file, I cannot use xp_cmdconsole because its considered a security hazard, even if I guarantee to open and close it during installation, for what I have read imp left with a custom action to osql which I will do now, I was trying to avoid do my own custom actions so if any1 knows another way to execute without a custom action a sql file script given during UI I'll be glad to hear about it, I will eventually look at wix source code of SQL extension, if I code a way to do it how can I submit it to the main project, since it will be a way to see it supported for future versions J Stay Well. __ Esta mensagem e ficheiros anexos incluem materia privada, confidencial e legalmente protegida, exclusivamente destinada a quem nela conste como destinatario.

Subject: Re: [WiX-users] Wix for IIS 7 Yes I do agree with you. If Microsoft is releasing a product then they have provide a way for developers to Deploy for that product. I filed a bug or feedback complaint for Visual Studio Packages (SQLExpress and NET35SP1) to be included in VS 2010 and they approved saying they will be including in the Visual Studio 2010. Is there a Feedback Address that we can file a complaint. I am sure Windows 7 is going to have IIS 7 right? If IIS Team wants us to use full features of IIS 7 in Win 7 they have to provide us with the way to deploy.

So I can assume that IIS Team works on the other side the world where they don't know the meaning of 'Deployment option for developers or compatibility testing' and know only that it's a part of Windows.

You can use IIS 6 compatibility mode and everything works fine. Here is a post from Rob and Neil responding to the very same questions I had over a month ago: Oh, no, there are no people pointing out how dumb it was for them to create "another installation technology that only covered part of the domain". Feel free to join in the conversation. Every time you see someone talking about MS Deploy for IIS point out how it doesn't integrate into the solution. My hope is eventually the IIS team will take deployment seriously. At this point, I'm personally more interested in creating Extensions to configure Apache than I am IIS. -Original Message- From: Neil Sleightholm [mailto:n...@x2systems.com] Sent: Tuesday, December 30, 2008 10:19 To: General discussion for Windows Installer XML toolset.
