Re: [WiX-users] [Wix]: Conditional installation for Windows Server 2008/Windows Server 2012
The original post indicated I have created MSI/EXE using Wix . If the '/EXE' implies a Bundle was created, and 'Condition' is used in the Bundle then also take note that Burn built-in VersionNT and VersionNT64 variables have a different format than the related MSI variables. http://wixtoolset.org/documentation/manual/v3/bundle/bundle_built_in_variables.html -- View this message in context: http://windows-installer-xml-wix-toolset.687559.n2.nabble.com/Wix-Conditional-installation-for-Windows-Server-2008-Windows-Server-2012-tp7588450p7588810.html Sent from the wix-users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- Learn the latest--Visual Studio 2012, SharePoint 2013, SQL 2012, more!

Take a look at the following two links. While there is a 32 bit version of Windows Server 2008, in most cases foks really mean Windows Server 2008 R2, which, like Windows Server 2012 is only available in 64 bit configurations.

Re: [WiX-users] [Wix]: Conditional installation for Windows Server 2008/Windows Server 2012
VersionNT is always defined, whether it's 32-bit or not. If you need to tell the difference between client and server (e.g. Windows 8 vs 2012), look at http://robmensching.com/blog/posts/2008/11/3/how-to-determine-if-you-are-installing-on-windows-client (the NTProductType property).
