Bezig met het maken van snelkoppelingen The wix source is as follows : [GROUPEVERYONE] is the name of group 'Everyone', which will be 'Iedereen' on dutch systems, depending on the language of the OS. I get the impression that there is no error in creating the file share. I have a hunch that every thing worked fine until i changed to I changed this to solve a bug. Some files were not installed onupdate When i update the GUID stays the same for this component. Is this a good or bad idea ? regards, Hugo van Putten -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Fileshare-bug---tf3795033.html#a10733876 Sent from the wix-users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. - This SF.net email is sponsored by DB2 Express Download DB2 Express C - the FREE version of DB2 express and take control of your XML.

Dear reader, I am doing a major upgrade and a part of the featuresare upgraded.

All the features i need are installed according to the log file.

[WiX-users] conditional service
Hello All, Given that i need to install a certain executable anyway is there a way to install it as a service dependig on a condition. My ugly, ICE error, solution is making two components with the the same file. One continaing thexecutable and the service. One containing only the file. Which componet gets installed depends on a conditiion. I therefore install te same file in two different components which generates ICE erros. Is there a better way ?

Re: [WiX-users] persistent properties sample
Thank you for your reply. I tried setting reinstallmode to no avail. I knew i needed to reinstall so i checked the reinstall option in the wixuserlib. It uses predefined customactions ReinstallMode\Reinstall, tried it and now it works. My main problem was/is i could not find any complet sample. Its all there on the web in the help files but finding out how to apply it is verry dificult. I made a sample based on the tutorial UI sample from Gabor Deak Jahn but where do i post it so it helps other people ? regards Hugo Bob Arnson-3 wrote: > > HvPutten wrote: >> In my install the user can set a cache size which is stored in the >> registry. >> I can not get the registry value to change in the maintenace-menu/change >> I have the dialog. >> > When you do a modify operation, you're telling MSI to install new > features or remove existing ones.

[WiX-users] persistent properties sample
In my install the user can set a cache size which is stored in the registry. I can not get the registry value to change in the maintenace-menu/change I have the dialog. I can retrieve the current value. change the onscreen value but can not get it written back to the registry. I have read descriptions of how to do this using a custom action. The log tells me the action is performed but the registry is not changed. So i am doing the wrong custom action. in theory i need to add the feature having the component with the registry setting to the REINSTALL property and set the REINSTALLMODE property I set these properties see them in the log but the registry does not change. Can anyone point me to a complete sample which shows how to do this. All the samples i find are just to simple and dont go into property persistence.
