Re: [WiX-users] Installing MSMQ as dependency [P]
Classification: Public
I have the same requirements and ended up writing a custom action to do the
work for me:
From Windows 7/8/2008R2/2012 I use Dism.exe for OS's below I use ocsetup.exe
(we use MSMQ for our Server product and our Client product), however Microsoft
being so consistent (being sarcastic) the features for MSMQ change from OS to
OS :( so I ended up doing something like this:
[CustomAction]
public static ActionResult CheckToSeeIfMSMQIsInstalled(Session session)
{
var productName = string.Empty;
try
{
if (session == null)
{
throw new ArgumentNullException(session);
}
var tempString = GetSessionProperty(session,
CustomActionData, false);
var parts = tempString.Split(new[] { '|' });
productName = parts[0];
var serviceExists = ServiceController.GetServices().Any(s =
s.ServiceName == MSMQ);
if (!serviceExists)
{
var platformVersion = Environment.OSVersion.VersionString;
var cmdLineParameters = string.Empty;
if (platformVersion.Contains(6.0.600)
!Os.IsWindowsServer())

};
// Run the external process wait for it to finish
using (var runDismProc = Process.Start(runDismInfo))
{

}
}
}
catch (Exception ex)

Re: [WiX-users] Installing MSMQ as dependency [P]
Thank you for your reply.
I am a bit new to Wix, as this is the first time I'm making an installer,
where exactly do you write that code? I presume it's not straight into the
xml, but so far I only have written XML...
Best regards,

Thank you again, I will look into C# Custom Actions.
