Re: [WiX-users] WIX: COM registration does not work with UAC
You should never count on regsvr32.exe running as a deferred custom action from a MSI. Is this COM component truly a shared component? If so then I would think it should not be installed as a per user package. If you simply have a one or more executables in the same install using this component, then I would opt for registration free COM via embedding a manifest into the EXE's which are consuming the COM DLL. For the underlying cause of the error, you didn't say anything about what dependencies your COM DLL has. Was it written in VB6, VC++ using ATL? I seem to remember both having issues as a VB6 COM DLL will rely on the VB6 Runtime being registered, and for C++ COM DLL's using ATL the proper ATL.dll must also be registered. -Original Message- From: vasjko [mailto:vas...@ua.fm] Sent: Wednesday, May 23, 2012 3:50 PM To: General discussion for Windows Installer XML toolset.

Re: [WiX-users] wix com registration: out of proc server
Best practice is to avoid self-registration - Windows Installer cannot repair what it does not know about. WiX does not provide any tools to extract registration information from EXEs, only DLLs. This is due to a limitation on the technique used. Some people have reported success with RegCap.exe, a utility that ships with Visual Studio (in Common7\Tools\Deployment), although this utility is undocumented. You can then convert the resulting .reg file with Tallow, although this will generate elements rather than the typed Class, Interface, TypeLib elements. I would generally not recommend relying on captures of self-registration code either, however. The results can be to register more than is really necessary or for parts of the self-registration code to fail if used in the unusual environment of registry-capture utilities. (Heat and tallow have particular problems with DLLs using the DLL version of the Visual C++ 2005 C runtime, because the registry keys required to load the side-by-side version of the CRT are not present in the canary environment supplied to the self-registration code). If you possibly can, look at what the self-registration code is doing and turn that into WiX script by hand. Use the Class/@Advertise='No' attribute to make readable scripts which still use the Registry table underneath - see Rob's blog entry http://robmensching.com/blog/archive/2007/03/12/RobMens-Recommendation-Do-no t-advertise-COM-information-in-MSI.aspx for why you would not want to Advertise your COM information. -- Mike Dimmick -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of /antoine Sent: 03 May 2007 00:49 To: wix-users@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: Re: [WiX-users] wix com registration: out of proc server Thanks for your reply. app is not an assembly, just a plain com out of proc server. /antoine wrote: > > Hi, > > i have got an out of proc com server app.exe that an installer must > install > and register. > > how to instruct wix to do the registration? > > the installer needs to accomplish the same effect as: > > app.exe -regserver at install and > app.exe -regserver at un-install > > I am using two custom action to accomplish that: > > >Source="$(var.dir)\app.exe" /> > > >FileKey="app.exe" > ExeCommand=" -regserver" > Return="asyncNoWait" > Execute="deferred" /> > >FileKey="app.exe" > ExeCommand=" -unregserver" > Return="asyncNoWait" > Execute="deferred" /> > > > > > > > The first custom action works, the second that is invoked at un-install > does > not. is it an action sequencing problem ? > > Thanks. > \antoine > > _ > The average US Credit Score is 675.

Re: [WiX-users] wix com registration: out of proc server
You probably want to look at tallow (v2) or heat (v3) to create the WiX code.

[WiX-users] wix com registration: out of proc server
Hi, i have got an out of proc com server app.exe that an installer must install and register. how to instruct wix to do the registration? the installer needs to accomplish the same effect as: app.exe -regserver at install and app.exe -regserver at un-install I am using two custom action to accomplish that: The first custom action works, the second that is invoked at un-install does not. is it an action sequencing problem ?

Re: [WiX-users] WiX COM+ help
The answer to that is unfortunately that it is currently not supported. In order the run the application under the Network Service account it needs to also run as a service, and that cannot be set in the current version of the COM+ CA's. I believe there is a feature request of a bug open at SF about this already so you are not the first one to notice. But so far I haven't had the opportunity to implement it.
