[WiX-users] hypertext control in burn preq theme
Hi All I was hoping someone from the Wix team could comment on the usage of the hypertext control in a mbapreq theme file. There is an open bug with the preq bootstrapper crashing (https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detailaid=3496929group_id=105970atid=642714) which in my investigation seems to be caused by using a hypertext control in the mbapreq.thm file in the latest build of burn. This issue occurs on Windows XP, which is a platform that I need to support. Using the hypertext control has a lot of adavantages in layout - is the hypertext control likely to be supported on Windows XP using a burn theme?

[WiX-users] localisation for the pre-requisite bootstrapper
Hi All I am currently using the burn pre-requisite bootstrapper to install .Net 4 before launching a custom managed bootstrapper application. I have set preqbathemewxl variable: WixVariable Id=PreqbaThemeWxl Value=DotNetTheme.wxl/ Is there a currently a way to localise the strings for multiple languages in the pre-requisite bootstrapper? There is a bug that was resolved as fixed around this (http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detailaid=3396537group_id=105970atid=642714) - but I can't find any details on how to get it to work.

[WiX-users] exit code for msu packages
Hi All I am currently attempting to bootstrap windows installer 4.5 using burn on multiple platforms (windows xp and vista). The windows installer 4.5 redistributable is an .exe file for windows xp, but a .msu file for vista. I noticed support has recently been added for the ExePackage/ExitCode in order to provide some control in a reboot scenario, there is currently no option for MsuPackage/ExitCode. Is this a planned feature, or is the best option to wrap the .msu in my own executable and use ExePackage/ExitCode to control the reboot on vista? regards Grant -- Virtualization Cloud Management Using Capacity Planning Cloud computing makes use of virtualization - but cloud computing also focuses on allowing computing to be delivered as a service. http://www.accelacomm.com/jaw/sfnl/114/51521223/ ___ WiX-users mailing list WiX-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/wix-users
[WiX-users] handling reboots from managed BA application
Hi All I am attempting to force a reboot after installing windows installer 4.5 on windows xp. The reboot is setup in the bundle.wxs file like the following: ExePackage Id=Windows_Installer_XP Cache=no Compressed=no PerMachine=yes Permanent=yes Vital=yes SourceFile=Packages/WindowsXP-KB942288-v3-x86.exe DownloadUrl=http://download.microsoft.com/download/2/6/1/261fca42-22c0-4f91-9451-0e0f2e08356d/WindowsXP-KB942288-v3-x86.exe; DetectCondition=VersionMsi = v4.5 InstallCondition=VersionNT = v5.1 InstallCommand=/q ExitCode Behavior=forceReboot / /ExePackage The managed bootstrapper generates the following log entries for the install and then moves to install complete: [06D0:0908][2012-02-09T15:29:07]: Applying package: Windows_Installer_XP, action: Install, path: C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Package Cache\86E1CC622DBF4979717B8F76AD73220CDB70400B\WindowsXP-KB942288-v3-x86.exe, arguments: 'C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Package Cache\86E1CC622DBF4979717B8F76AD73220CDB70400B\WindowsXP-KB942288-v3-x86.exe /q' [08B0:019C][2012-02-09T15:29:21]: Received system request to shut down the process: critical: No, elevated: No, allowed: No [08B0:06C4][2012-02-09T15:29:32]: Apply complete, result: 0x0 restart: No [08B0:06C4][2012-02-09T15:29:32]: Shutting down, exit code: 0x0 Is there code I need to write in the managed boostrapper to make the reboot actually happen - there seems to be very little documentation or forum posts around this topic...
