Re: [WiX-users] WiX 3.6 beta and virus checker

2011-11-02 Thread Peter Hull 

  Can you open a bug with this information in it? I'm not exactly sure what
  we'll do about it but we should at least track the issue.
 Yes I will do when I'm back in work. I am a bit surprised nobody has seen 
 this; I would have thought that there would be many other corporate users 
 with Trend OfficeScan and a similar config.

Done (bug #3431068, 
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detailaid=3431068group_id=105970atid=642714)
 
I wrote my own program to make a similar change in the registry and nothing 
happened, so I'm not sure why the burn engine 'provokes' Trend in that way.

[WiX-users] WiX 3.6 beta and virus checker

2011-10-25 Thread Peter Hull 

Dear All,
I am not able to install the new 3.6 beta exe file (Wix36.exe) because my virus 
checker (Trend Micro OfficeScan) terminates the installer when it tries to 
write to the RunOnce registry key.
I was able to download and run WiX 3.6 from the wix36-binaries.zip archive, 
however my minimal test installer also falls foul of Trend for the same reason. 
(I include my .wxs files below)
 
I've never seen this for any other package I've installed. Does anyone know 
about this or have a workaround?
 
Peter

Wow, that's a pretty aggressive virus checker. How do you install software
that requires a reboot with that thing turned on?
Can you open a bug with this information in it? I'm not exactly sure what
we'll do about it but we should at least track the issue.

 Wow, that's a pretty aggressive virus checker. How do you install software
 that requires a reboot with that thing turned on?
It's my work system so I don't have access to/can't change the policies it is 
using. I've installed loads of things in the past based on InstallShield, 
InnoSetup etc, and never seen this error message. I can't remember if any of 
them required a reboot but I have installed updates from Microsoft Update which 
did, and I had no problem. It may be that Trend has rules to allow certain 
'well-known' bootstrappers to execute, or maybe none of them do the same 
registry access as you do. I'm guessing it's the function UpdateResumeMode in 
burn\engine\registration.cpp, do you agree?

 Can you open a bug with this information in it? I'm not exactly sure what
 we'll do about it but we should at least track the issue.
Yes I will do when I'm back in work. I am a bit surprised nobody has seen this;
