Re: [WiX-users] Shield Decoration on buttons
hi, I have the same problem. And now i have something even more serious. In my package, i have something out of the installer's control, just an service have registries self-registered. When I do an maintenance using the package, just like Remove action, but the UAC credentials won't prompt, and the service can't be removed, neither the file associates it. And when i run the package again, it appears not the setup dialog but the maintenance dialog, i choose Remove again, the UAC credentials prompt, but nothing happened besides this. The file and the service is still running normally. Is there something wrong? thanks for help~~ In addition, if i uninstall the product from the Add/Remove Program, the credentials prompt, the service and the file are all removed. This also can be done when we run this as an administrator.

Adding or removing features does require elevation consent. If your custom actions are all appropriately deferred, no-impersonate after InstallInitialize and before InstallFinalize, MSI elevates them appropriately. -- sig://boB http://joyofsetup.com/ - This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.

Gareth at Serif wrote: I'm not sure what you require by way of an example. Well, remember I don't have your packages or your logs or your apps. Raymond Chen calls it psychic debugging. Now, the two events will be obviously different because the first will trigger a UAC prompt as soon as it runs because of the special nature of exe files called setup. The second will not have a UAC prompt... ever. Repair doesn't trigger a UAC prompt because a UAC prompt was already required to install it and repairing doesn't introduce any additional security concerns. What if the value of ROOTDRIVE is important for subsequent CAs? Use Property/@Secure=yes to mark it as secure. Even though UAC doesn't prompt, there's still an elevation as MSI switches to the execute sequence. You need to mark properties secure so they're correctly passed to the execute sequence. These lines 'ignoring disallowed property' exist when attempting to pass the location of every single component in my package. This is the primary source of my confusion: What location of every single component do you mean? MSI creates properties matching every *directory* but not component. -- sig://boB http://joyofsetup.com/ - This SF.net email is sponsored by DB2 Express Download DB2 Express C - the FREE version of DB2 express and take control of your XML.

Re: [WiX-users] Shield Decoration on buttons
Hi Rob, I've started to see some peculiar results due to priveledge issues on Vista and found myself back in this thread. I find, as I think you have, that once the app in question is installed, the elevation being passed to the client side of the install differ greatly depending on how you chose to initialise a Repair process, for example. In that, running the bootstrapper again gives a UAC prompt and then all is good, or you can run the MSI again, there is no UAC prompt until much later on and the information being passed to the client side is greatly reduced and potentially detremental to the expected behaviour of later custom actions. I hoped that adding the msidbControlAttributesElevationShield attribute to my Install, Repair and Change buttons would give the engine a better clue that, I really need elevating now! But alas, I don't have a shield appearing anywhere and the install's elevated behaviour has not improved. So, can anyone explain how to get this icon to appear, and will it force a UAC prompt? And why does Vista allow you to initiate a Repair in such drastically different ways to such a degree that you can't be sure what's going to be passed to the client side and what isn't?

No. The shield is just a decoration for the user. The UI sequence is never elevated (or rather, it has the privileges of the user, which aren't elevated when UAC is on). -- sig://boB http://joyofsetup.com/ - This SF.net email is sponsored by DB2 Express Download DB2 Express C - the FREE version of DB2 express and take control of your XML.

Re: [WiX-users] Shield Decoration on buttons
I find that the msi file extension tells Vista that the process requires elevation and you get the UAC prompt before the UI Sequene begins. Therefore, by the time you get to your 'Install' button with the potential to display your UAC Shield, the install doesn't require elevation (as it all ready has it) and the behaviour decides not to show the shield as it's not going to call UAC. Basically, your installation should call UAC only once. If your bootstrapper icon has been deemed worthy of the shield by Vista, this will call UAC. From then on, nothing needs the shield and shouldn't have it. To stop this and only elevate when you actually click 'Install' (and so display the shield) you will need to stop the install from elevating itself before the UI begins - probably with an appropriate manifest file.

Re: [WiX-users] Shield Decoration on buttons
That's what I'm doing. My bootstrapper runs with asInvoker elevation requirements. The UAC happens when Windows Installer changes from client-side to server-side during the install. I also find that running an MSI directly doesn't show the UAC prompt until it switches to the server-side.

Re: [WiX-users] Shield Decoration on buttons
I'm still not sure I get it. I don't see why MsiRunningElevated is set so early on uninstall, especially since it obviously isn't. It gives you a UAC prompt later on. As for the link you sent me, I didn't really see anything that explains what I'm seeing.
