Re: [WiX-users] WIC as a prereq before .NET 4.0 in Burn with custom BA
Hi Daniel, We had the exactly same problem. What we did to solve is, we created a second bootstrapper project called PrereqBootstrapper with the following content in Bundle.wxs (most of it is copied from the Wix NetFxExtension): http://schemas.microsoft.com/wix/2006/wi";> http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=182805 ?> http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=247729 ?> http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=182804 ?> http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=247730 ?> http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkID=188993 ?> Afterwards we added this to our main bootstrapper: I have tested this in a Windows Server 2003 R2 environment and it installed both, WIC and .NET4. It still has a problem, though: The progress isn't shown correctly in UI. Maybe you can figure this out yourself and let me know if you find the solution.

On some platforms this requires WIC (Windows Imaging Component) to be installed prior to running the .NET 4.0 installer, which is giving us some issues. We have tried to solve this issue in a few ways, but none have worked, so I posted to stack overflow about it. Nobody has responded so far, so I'm crossposting here to see if anybody has any input. If so, it would be nice if you could take a look at the SO question, which has all the details, and perhaps shoot me an answer either there or here. http://stackoverflow.com/questions/12727583/adding-wic-as-a-requirement-before-net-4-0-in-wix-burn-custom-managed-bootstrap Daniel E.

Sorry I misread your question, I am using the native installer not the managed one so it is simply a matter of scheduling it.

Re: [WiX-users] WIC as a prereq before .NET 4.0 in Burn with custom BA
Thank you for the answer, however I can't see how you specify that this is to be run by the prerequisite installer that usually installs .NET before launching the managed BA. Is this then not necessary, or was I unclear on our problem? Our problem is not in specifying the packages (though thank you for that), but getting them to run prior to the .NET 4.0 package in the native installer that is launched if .NET 4.0 is not present on the machine. We think this would require setting the variable WixMbaPrereqPackageId to some package that does this for us, but it's unclear what this value would be or if this is actually the solution we need.
