[WiX-users] Heat source path
Hello, I use heat.exe to harvest a folder located outside the Msi-project. This is my current output in the generated wxs-file. File Id=... KeyPath=yes Source=$(var.ThePath)\a\b.txt / In this case I need to set up var.ThePath in the project as pre processor variable (or use WiX-variable set up in the project). Is there any way I can directly give heat.exe the path ro be inserted instead of $(var.ThePath)?

[WiX-users] Code Signing
Hello,
I'm looking for some best practices to sign our application with a .pfx
certificate.
This is what I have:
* DLL's made by us
* DLL's signed by others
* DLL's made by others but not signed
* EXE's made by us
Those are packed into a MSI (Msi.wixproj) (Media have one .CAB-file
defined as Embedded), this MSI are included in a Bundle
(Msi.Bootstrapper.wixproj) to fix .NET installation.
The original Bundle output file have the name:
app-1.6.5290.20471.exe
I did rename the file to app.exe.
I did try to use signtool to sign the Bundle output .exe-file. I got the
signing working. But the installation fails after a prompt to pick a file
with the following log-message:
[0B28:0B78][]i000: Caching bundle from:
'C:\Users\User\AppData\Local\Temp\{uuid}\.be\app-1.6.5290.20471.exe' to:

Seems like it is looking for the original filename?
Please advice me how to do this properly (signing exe's dll's msi?)

Sam

Re: [WiX-users] Bundle - NET4.5 - WinXP(and other unsupported OS'es)
I just found a very strange thing. Microsoft is specifying bout Windows 7 (no SP) and Windows 7 SP1: http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=30653 http://msdn.microsoft.com/sv-se/library/8z6watww.aspx So the result is that before I added the launch condition to prevent Windows 7 without SP1 it was installing fine, and the application run. But after adding the launch-condition to prevent Windows 7 the Bootstrapper stops the user from installing. Does anyone else experienced this things? I have repeated it by my self to try it out. So this condition isn't actually valid for .NET 4.5: Condition=(VersionNT = v6.0 AND ServicePackLevel = 2) OR (VersionNT = v6.1 AND ServicePackLevel = 1) OR (VersionNT = v6.1 AND NOT NTProductType = 1) OR (VersionNT = v6.2) //Sam On Thu, Apr 25, 2013 at 1:18 PM, Sam Boman s...@samb.se wrote: Using the: Bundle Condition= (VersionNT = v6.0 AND ServicePackLevel = 2) OR (VersionNT = v6.1 AND ServicePackLevel = 1) OR (VersionNT = v6.2) To filter out the specifications of .NET 4.5. *Supported operating systems: *Windows 7 Service Pack 1, Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1, Windows Server 2008 Service Pack 2, Windows Vista Service Pack 2 The Operating System Property Values at: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-US/library/aa370556.aspx .NET 4.5 can run on: Windows 7 (v6.1 and SP1) and also Windows Server 2008 R2 (v6.1 without any SP).

Under Step 2 it says:
Add a PayloadGroupRef element to your bundle's chain that references the
.Net package required by your application.
The example are the just:
Chain
PackageGroupRef Id=NetFx40Web/
MsiPackage Id=MyApplication
SourceFile=$(var.MyApplicationSetup.TargetPath)/
/Chain
How shuld the PayloadGroupReference be added?
I have tried without it, it compiles, but the bootstrapper fails:
My Bundle contains:
Chain PackageGroupRef Id=NetFx45Web/ MsiPackage...//Chain
Have tried with Redist as well.

Re: [WiX-users] Install Prerequisites (.NET Framework)
Thanks for this good explanations! Regarding this: You should probably set the Burn bundle as related to the MSI so when a user uninstalls the MSI it also uninstalls the Burn bundle. Otherwise the user's system will have the (invisible) Burn bundle still registered which could cause problems if they attempt to reinstall or install a newer release at a later time etc. How do I specify that? //Sam On Tue, Feb 12, 2013 at 6:04 PM, Pally Sandher pally.sand...@iesve.comwrote: For MSI UI - http://wix.sourceforge.net/manual-wix3/wix_xsd_msipackage.htm see the DisplayInternalUI attribute.

Re: [WiX-users] Install Prerequisites (.NET Framework)
Ok, thats a good point, I already got the MSI version from the FileVersion of my main project. So that will make it clear. On Tue, Feb 12, 2013 at 3:30 PM, Neil Sleightholm n...@x2systems.comwrote: That is how I structure my projects. I set the version of the bundle to the version of the msi using binder variables e.g.: ?define Version = !(bind.packageVersion.MyMSIProject) ? In fact I get the version of the MSI from one of the files I install using the same technique.

Re: [WiX-users] Install Prerequisites (.NET Framework)
Ok, but I have this issue, or maybe its just the way it works... I have set the Msi project to use: UIRef Id=WixUI_InstallDir/ And then I have added the license agreement rtf-file to it. But when I have added this to the Bootstrapper project: *BootstrapperApplicationRef Id=WixStandardBootstrapperApplication.RtfLicense /* Chain PackageGroupRef Id= Netfx4Full/ ...your msi stuff goes here... /Chain I end up in not getting the Msi UI at all, and in Controlpanel - Programs I just see my bootstrapper projectname... Not the original Msi name and version... I thought that the Bootstrapper just would do its checks, and then handover to the Msi UI, and not display any thing to the user if all is Okay (.NET version are the right.). Thanks! //Sam On Tue, Feb 12, 2013 at 3:37 PM, Pally Sandher pally.sand...@iesve.comwrote: You need 2 projects. You have 2 outputs, an MSI a Burn executable which wraps the MSI and deals with your pre-reqs. You can configure your burn package not to register itself or to not register your MSI. See the Burn documentation - http://wix.sourceforge.net/manual-wix3/authoring_bundle_intro.htm BTW all that extra code Steven posted is completely superfluous. All you literally need in your Burn bundle XML is Chain PackageGroupRef Id= Netfx4Full/ ...your msi stuff goes here... /Chain As WiXNetFxExtension has all the authoring required to do all the checks downloading etc. (and has been checked tested by everyone who uses it on a daily basis). Personally I use PackageGroupRef Id=NetFx40ClientRedist/ because I hate those 'on-demand' installer bundle things.

[WiX-users] Id for Component and File
Hi, I just have a quick question, are these Id's valid (same on Component and File)... I guess they are in different tables.

Ok, I also found the example in the documentation which uses same Id for Component and File... http://wix.sourceforge.net/manual-wix3/add_a_file.htm But they (Id's) seems to be required, so I can't skip them. Also, the Error: LGHT0216 Can I get a better / more detailed description?
