[WiX-users] Verbose Bundle Logging

2012-03-20 Thread James Green
Hi All,

Is there an equivalent logging command for bundles as there is for MSI files?

msiexec /i "C:\MyPackage\Example.msi" /L*V "C:\log\example.log"

Cheers,

James

Thanks Rob, probably the most useful piece of info I've heard regarding MSI's.  
I knew about the logs but not "value 3".

Re: [WiX-users] Cab File

2012-01-16 Thread James Green
Hey Dan,

Thanks for that, I just read the section on that just after posting to the 
list.  It works fine if I put it in the generated .wxs file but not if I put it 
in the non-generated Product.wxs file so anytime someone reruns the batch file 
this key bit of info will get obliterated ...

How can I get around this in a repeatable fashion so that the generated 
fragment is always valid?

Cheers,

James

Hi James,

Preprocessor variables and WixVariable's are not the same thing. A preprocessor 
variable is defined using . For example:



Preprocessor variables are handled much like the C preprocessor handles #define

Re: [WiX-users] Cab File

2012-01-16 Thread James Green
Hey Again,

I'm not sure how to go about getting this working now, I've tried a few things 
and I just get Undefined veriables erros:

I have  in 
Product.wxs

Then I have heat producing a fragment with -cg RInstall -var var.RFileSource

But the build fails saying that "Undefined preprocessor variable 
'$(var.RFileSource)"

How can I reference a variable in the main wxs file without hand editing the 
generated fragment?

Cheers,

James

Hi James,

I haven't used heat for quite a while, but I think you can use the -cg  
option to get it to create a ComponentGroup containing all your components and 
then include that component group in your Feature using a ComponentGroupRef. 
Otherwise I think you have to use a ComponentRef to refer to each component 
individually ... and that would clearly be a drag. :-)

Can a cab maintain the original directory structure automatically on

Look at the Wix help regarding the "heat" tool. That will do the tedious 
initial script generation for you. Then you can tweak it by hand to maintain 
the diffs in future versions.

If you're not asking for a Wix-based solution then the Wix mailing list isn't 
really the place to be asking. The cab format is documented on the msdn at 
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb417343.aspx I dont see how that's any 
different from doing it with a zip though.

Re: [WiX-users] My First Bundle! :)

2012-01-11 Thread James Green
Hi Again,

I spoke too soon.

I've confirmed that .NET 4.0 isn't installed on the machine.  My Bundle has an 
install condition of:

FindDotNet40ClientInstallRegValue = 0

Which is a RegistrySearch:



[011C:0408][2012-01-11T09:44:42]: Condition 'FindDotNet40ClientInstallRegValue 
= 0' evaluates to false.

Which according to the log evaluated to false, I'm obviously terribly mistaken 
but I would assume that if the key isn't present it would evaluate to 0 meaning 
that " FindDotNet40ClientInstallRegValue = 0" would evaluate to true and 
install .net on the machine.  

[011C:0408][2012-01-11T09:44:40]: Registry key not found. Key = 
'SOFTWARE\Microsoft\NET Framework Setup\NDP\v4\Client'
[011C:0408][2012-01-11T09:44:40]: Registry key not found. Key = 
'SOFTWARE\Microsoft\NET Framework Setup\NDP\v4\Full'

Then the entire packaged failed to install anything subsequently.

[011C:0408][2012-01-11T09:44:46]: Error 0x80070643: Failed to execute apply.

Re: [WiX-users] My First Bundle! :)

2012-01-11 Thread James Green
Hi,

Thanks for that Rob.  Looked at the logs and solved that particular issue.  The 
only issue I have left now is that the Bundle itself appears in the Add/Remove 
programs.

Is there a way to hide it? Or should I be thinking about "hiding" the 
application and use the bundle as the UnInstaller?

ARPNOMODIFY is already set for WixUI_InstallDir since that dialog set
doesn't include any feature selection dialog (so there isn't any point
in allowing "Change"). However, I don't see ARPNOREPAIR being set there.
You should be able to set that one property and trust the other one is
set.

[WiX-users] Using a Custom Action dll in another solution

2010-10-08 Thread James Green
Hi All,

 

I created a Custom Action dll (.NET) for a test solution.  In this solution
I have the CA project, a simple test app project and a WiX setup project.
This works fine.  I'm now trying to take the CA dll produced by this test
solution into our live project.  I've copied both dlls (the Deploy.dll and
Deploy.CA.dll) in the live projects Libs folder and tried to add a reference
to it in the WiX project in this solution.  It just errors with the
following message:

 

"A reference to [path to Dll] could not be added. Please make sure that the
file is accessible, and that it is a valid WiX reference."

 

There isn't any reason it won't be accessible so I can only assume that
there is something wrong with the dll and it's not being recognised as a WiX
reference.  What should I be doing to fix this?  And why would it work fine
when used from within the same solution but fail when added to a different
solution?  Very confusing ...

 

Thanks in advance,

[WiX-users] ShortCuts Win 7

2010-08-20 Thread James Green
Hi All,

 

I've just followed this example
http://wix.sourceforge.net/manual-wix3/create_start_menu_shortcut.htm to the
letter in my own script but still no short cut.  Do I need to be doing
something else for this to work on Windows 7?

 

Thanks,

[WiX-users] Showing Message after running Managed CA

2010-07-05 Thread James Green
Hi All,
 
So far all is working OK with my installer.  I have a single managed (C#)
Custom Action that gets run to test a database connection.  I have it
writing out to a property like this:
 
session["DB_CONNECTION_OK"] = "1";

I can see this getting updated in the log correctly.  However, on the dialog
the message I have 'bound' to this property is never shown when the property
is updated however, it is in to correct state when the dialog is initialised
(ie: hidden):


  DB_CONNECTION_OK = 1
  DB_CONNECTION_OK = 0


What extra steps are required to get this message to show on the form one
the DB_CONNECTION_OK property is set to 1?
 
Kind regards,

[WiX-users] Conditional Button Enabling

2010-07-02 Thread James Green
Hi Guys,
 
I really am the noob!  I've tried loads of different variations on this and
as far as I can tell from the examples this looks like it should be working
but it's not.  What am I doing wrong here?
 
I have four Edit controls and as long as there is something in all of then
the next button should be enabled.





Any pointers would be great.

Re: [WiX-users] Removing IIS Virtual Dirs

2010-07-01 Thread James Green
Hi Again,

We have been doing a little more poking around with some test installers we
have created that make use of the WixIIsExtension library and we're seeing
some odd behaviour.  The latest installer that I have been working on seems
to work as expected on IIS 5.1 (XP) and IIS 7 on Server 2008 but fails to
remove the virtual directory on IIS 7 running under Windows 7.

The strange thing is on the Windows 7 machine the uninstall log was
reporting a successful rollback of the component within the installer but
the virtual directory was still present.

Has anyone else seen this behaviour or have any ideas what the issue may be?

Regards,

James

--
Nope. If you see virtual directories being left behind, take a look in the
verbose log file and make sure the Component containing the vdir was
removed.

Subject: Re: [WiX-users] Bold Titles on Custom Dialogs

Prefix the text with "{\WixUI_Font_Title}". So, in your text it will be:

   

But, if you want this to be localized (I guess you do), move the value of
the Text attribute to a *.wxl file, and leave a reference to it from the
Control element, something like this:

*.wxl
   ...
   {\WixUI_Font_Title}Create Virtual
Directory
   ...

*.wxs
 ...
   
 ...

Hope this helps,

one custom dialog for my installer but I cannot seem to set the Title to
bold text to fall in line with the other dialogs.
 
I'm using  as the basis for the UI and in my
custom dialog I have the following set:
 

 
However, as opposed to the other dialogs this text isn't bold and I cannot

It'll be rendering with the font specified in the DefaultUIFont Property
unless you tell it otherwise

Try


The standard fonts are listed in WiXUI_Installdir.wxs but you can define
your own using the TextStyle Element if you want to use something different,
just use them in the same way as above.
