Re: [WiX-users] Windows Update and WiX - is it possible?
Thanks Rob, This looks like it's to be use with Bundle, is it possible to include the update in the MSI standalone?

Re: [WiX-users] Burn Chain Packages and Upgrading
Thanks Bob, I do have my own custom bootstrapper application. Is there a hook that I can use so that if the bootstrapper app was called to Uninstall with the -quiet switch, I can just call Engine.Plan(Uninstall), then exit before my UI code loads?

Burn (at least in the current version) asks the older bundle to uninstall itself with the -quiet switch, which shouldn't show UI or prompt the user. That's up to the bootstrapper application to handle correctly. -- sig://boB http://joyofsetup.com/ -- RSA(R) Conference 2012 Save $700 by Nov 18 Register now http://p.sf.net/sfu/rsa-sfdev2dev1 ___ WiX-users mailing list WiX-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/wix-users -- RSA(R) Conference 2012 Save $700 by Nov 18 Register now http://p.sf.net/sfu/rsa-sfdev2dev1 ___ WiX-users mailing list WiX-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/wix-users
[WiX-users] Burn Chain Packages and Upgrading
Hi all, I am running version 3.6.2026 and using Burn to do a chain package installation. I have got to a point where I can install and uninstall with the chain package, but I am running into a brick wall when trying to upgrade all the packages to new versions. For example, my chain package, let’s call it Chain_version1.exe includes: a_version1.msi, b_version1.msi, c_version1.msi. I then make another version Chain_version2.exe includes: a_version2.msi, b_version2.msi, c_version2.msi. When I run the Chain_version2.exe after Chain_version1, Engine.Plan(Install) or Engine.Plan(Repair) both fails to upgrade the packages. I have since updated WiX to 3.6.2221 and still experiencing the same result. When I say fail, I mean the Chain_version2.exe will kick off the Chain_version1.exe (from cache, to do the uninstall?) and wait for users to click through the Chain_version1.exe steps of uninstall. All the packages are built using WiX and they all have this header Property Id=PREVIOUSVERSIONSINSTALLED Secure=yes / Upgrade Id=GUID UpgradeVersion Minimum=0.0.0.0 Maximum=x.x.x.x Property=PREVIOUSVERSIONSINSTALLED IncludeMinimum=yes IncludeMaximum=no / /Upgrade When run individually, those packages will uninstall the old version and install a new version of themselves and that worked correctly.
