Re: [WiX-users] Burn failed to initialize COM at EngineRun().
Hi, I've found the culprit. I installed a program named Lingoes(a translator), and run the Ligoes.exe in the back. When my installer starts, it loaded the following dll before entering stub.exe's wWinMain. C:\Users\Administrator\AppData\Local\Lingoes\Translator\lingoes-us\OpenText32.dll It looks like this OpenText32.dll already initialized COM using a different thread mode. If I terminate the Ligoes.exe, the problem vanished. Since I'm using debug version of burn.exe, it will crash. In release version of burn.exe, it will not crash because ExitOnFailure is not available under release build. So is this a bug? Or a flaw I can just ignore?

[WiX-users] Is there some existing tool I can use when I work with WiX localization?
Hi all, I'm sending wxl files to translators for translation. When the wxl file of japanese is processed, the translator need to preview the result msi dialog to adjust the text to confirm to some line breaking rules. I wonder if there is already some tools I can achieve this task. For example, the translator can edit the ja.wxl file, and then preview the result dialog without re-compile the msi package. If there is some string they need to adjust, they just edit the wxl file and then preview the result dialog again to make sure they did the right modification. If there is not such tools, I may try to write one for my own use.

MyDir should be C:\Users\Admin\AppData\Local\Temp\mydir but it doesn't. The files I want to install to C:\Users\admin\AppData\Local\Temp\mydir all goes under C:\Users\ADMINI~1\AppData\Local\Temp\mydir\. Had someone experienced this kind of things before?

[WiX-users] What does setting KeyPath attribute of the Component element to yes means?
Hi, In The Windows Installer's documents, It mentioned that the Windows Installer determines whether the component's key file is already installed before attempting to install the files of any component. If the installer finds a file with the same name as the component's key file installed in the target location, it compares the version, date, and language of the two key files and uses file versioning rules to determine whether to install the component provided by the package. If the Component's KeyPath is set to yes, then the Directory of this Component is used as the KeyPath. Does that means if the Directory of the Component is already exists, then the component won't be installed? Thanks, Gauldoth -- Rapidly troubleshoot problems before they affect your business.

[WiX-users] Can different products contain conponents with the same ComponentId?
Hi, We got two different products, say product A and product B. Product B's msi is identical with product A's except the UpgradeCode is different, and lacking some features. Product B's source code is based on Product A's, so the components are the same as Product A's. Product A and Product B can be installed on the same computer, just like visual studio 2008 and visual studio 2010 could coexist. Product A and Product B will be installed on different directories. Is it safe to author like that? Thanks, Gauldoth -- Sponsored by Intel(R) XDK Develop, test and display web and hybrid apps with a single code base.

Re: [WiX-users] Change Wix UI strings at run time
Recently I also run into the same requirements. See this, http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa370074%28v=vs.85%29.aspx The MsiDatabaseApplyTransform's documentation mentioned, This function cannot be called from custom actions. A call to this function from a custom action causes the function to fail. So in my opinion it sounds impossible or inappropriate to do this within the msi. But using burn to achieve this is also awkward.

Re: [WiX-users] Creating patches
于02 May 2013 17:31:10,Thomas Due写到: Hello, I am trying to grasp the concept of minor and small upgrades, but I am having some trouble with getting it to work. First of all, it doesn't seem to work at all with 3.7. I have downgraded my WiX to 3.5, and there something happens at least, but my msp seems to be empty when I examine it with instead (http://www.instedit.com/). A bit about what I do: I have a fairly complex installer with a couple of hundred files total, divided among 4 features. I build this with TeamCity, and I have two separate installers (no real changes, except for the version nummer - 1.2.0.22679 and 1.2.5.22754). I imagine that this should be enough to generate something. I have a build script, a simple batch file, which executes the four steps described in both the WiX doc and Nick Ramirez' book. My patch.wxs then includes a couple of file components, as I want these replaces (mind you, I am still in the testing phase, trying to understand the concept). First my build script: === %wixdir%bin\torch.exe -p -xi %oldmsi% %newmsi% -v -out diff.wixmst %wixdir%bin\candle.exe -v Patch.wxs %wixdir%bin\Light.exe -v Patch.wixobj -out patch.wixmsp %wixdir%bin\pyro.exe -v patch.wixmsp -out patch.msp -t Patch diff.wixmst %oldmsi% and %newmsi are complete paths to the wixpdb files for respectively old and new installer. Then my Patch.wsx: === ?xml version=1.0 encoding=utf-8? Wix xmlns=http://schemas.microsoft.com/wix/2006/wi; ?include BuildVariables.wxi ? Patch AllowRemoval=yes Classification=Update Manufacturer=$(var.Manufacturer) Description=Patch DisplayName=Patch $(var.CurVersion) Media Id=1000 Cabinet=´Patch.cab EmbedCab=yes PatchBaseline Id=Patch / /Media PatchFamily Id=ScanXNETPatchFamily Version=$(var.CurVersion) Supersede=yes ComponentRef Id=ComponentCommonExtensions / ComponentRef Id=ComponentMainClient/ /PatchFamily /Patch /Wix BuildVariables.wxi is simply a number of preprocessor variables, which is shared with the installer project. Now, as I said, with 3.7 I get this result: Updating file information. Creating cabinet files. There will be '8' threads used to produce CAB files. Patch.wxs(20) : warning PYRO1079 : The cabinet 'ïPatch.cab' does not contain any files. If this patch contains no files, this warning can likely be safely ignored. Otherwise, try passing -p to torch.exe when first building the transforms, or add a ComponentRef to your PatchFamily authoring to pull changed files into the cabinet. Creating cabinet '\Local\Temp\kvov1bbk\#ïPatch.cab'. Generating database. diff.wixmst : error PYRO0227 : The transform being built did not contain any differences so it could not be created.

Re: [WiX-users] Why in Preprocessor the Not Equal To is != while in conditional string is .
于 18/04/2013 21:42, Rob Mensching 写道: People guessing the SQL influence are correct. Back in 1995, SQL was a big thing and transacted install was the big new idea (a very good idea, IMHO) so there was a theory that you should make the MSI a SQL database because you're doing transaction stuff. IMHO, that didn't work out nearly as well as hoped, but this was before the creation of XML so given the time it makes sense. The WiX preprocessor is designed to mimic the C/C++ preprocessor. Personally, I think the separation is good to remind one that the preprocessor runs in the build lab and the SQL/Condition syntax runs during install time. It is a little confusing up front but it is important to get the separation of build time and install time correct or one will be *extremely* confused. smile/ On Thu, Apr 18, 2013 at 6:13 AM, Pally Sandher pally.sand...@iesve.comwrote: Probably a combination of the 2.
