[WiX-users] Problems upgrading to WiX 3.9
Dear all, I upgraded our project from WiX 3.7 to the latest 3.9 version. I do have a problem however. Although the msi is created correctly I do get the installation failing with the following error in the log: Error 1723. There is a problem with this Windows Installer package. A DLL required for this install to complete could not be run. Contact your support personnel or package vendor. Action CA_ExportTempHxDs.3643236F_FC70_11D3_A536_0090278A1BB8, entry: ExportTempHxDs, library: C:\windows\Installer\MSIC69F.tmp In my Product.wxs I do find the following I haven't wrote this part of the installer and I do think is used for publishing help files. If I use Wix 3.7 this works just well. Any idea? Thanks Mario Majcica -- Download BIRT iHub F-Type - The Free Enterprise-Grade BIRT Server from Actuate!

[WiX-users] CheckBox control state modified by user
Dear group, Inside my custom dialog I do have a checkbox defined in the following way And I defined a property After which I'm setting that property to 1 in case VS2012DEVENV is not 0 (VS 2012 installed) Now once I set this code, I do see my check box being set or unset base on the presence of VS2012 on a machine. The problem is that I can't uncheck or check this checkbox anymore. It's some sort of read only. What I'm trying to achieve is the following. In case the VS2012 is installed the checkbox should be checked by default. In case I don't want my feature installed on VS2012 user should uncheck my Vs2012 check box. Forgive me a beginners question but I am googling and trying for the past 4 hours with no success. Any suggestion is welcome.

Re: [WiX-users] CheckBox control state modified by user
Hi John, My problem is that the check box is read only on the installer side. Meanwhile if I set my property via code it works fine. The problem is that after that I can't modify the state of the control during install. Any clue?

Hi, I declared a property in the following way I now need to set the value of this property based on a condition. If the condition is true, the value should be set to 1 else it should be set to NULL.

[WiX-users] Text files
Hi all, I have a need to remove some lines of text out of the .txt files I'm deploying via wix. This is pretty simple to do with XML files and I was wondering how to do it when it comes to plain text files. Any suggestion is welcome as seems google has nothing interesting to propose on this argument. Thanks Mario Majcica -- Dive into the World of Parallel Programming!

[WiX-users] UAC and VSIX problem
Hi all, I am installing a VSIX package via VSExtensions. On machine where UAC is enabled it fails to install. It seems that the rights are not propagated once the VSIXInstaller.exe is invoked by the custom action. Any clue on how to make it propagate the rights? Any suggestion is welcome.
