Hi, I am new in using WIX and while learning basics I faced a problem with the
SqlSample provided on the wixwiki web site. I am simply unable to execute a msi
that hold a SqlScript section. I currently run the V.3.2420 version of wix and

I'm not sure why you're getting problems with LocalSystem. The reason you're
having trouble for
other users though is probably because they don't have the 'start services'
right. You'll need a
custom action to set this for whichever user.

You can set log on as service via the

You can start the Group Policy Editor with the command gpedit.msc in the
Hi,
Is there any way of getting the location were the application was installed
after the msi finishes, is it stored on the registry or any other way?
I guess the msi stores this somewhere, so it can know if it has to do an
install or can do a repair / remove.
I know i can easily store this on
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\ProductID

For some strange reason this value is empty, but the other values like

This also happends on some other applications i have installed. Any ideas?

There is no way to do it using MSI core functionnalities, you will have to
code a deferred custom action for it.
But be very careful, if you set a folder to read only, uninstaller may be
unable to remove it.

I want to show some text in MSI UI, like Click here for more

How to show an URL in MSI UI text control? I mean, which WIX control is

AFAIK there is no support for that in the Windows Installer

Thank you for your reply. Your were right... it should be working. I figured
out the problem was a bug with wix. I am using an early version 2.0.4415.0.
So i just replaced the effected dll (sca*.dll and scawix.dll) with an even
early version (3309) where it was working.

You probably need to sequence your CA before the CostFinalize action;
that's when MSI queries the Condition condition_table.htm table to

Hi,

If replacing the dll corrected your problem (and you were using the current
codebase / binary drop), then I suspect that a bug has been reintroduced.
It was fixed a couple of months back.
The error that was occurring was an array buffer overflow in the SCA dll
when it read the IIS metadata.
Please, try the latest WiX v2 drops (http://wix.sourceforge.net/releases). All
of these bugs should be fixed there. We're getting close to zero bugs in WiX
v2 so it would be helpful if people started picking up the weekly drops of WiX
v2 to help us ensure nothing regresses.

I want a folder to be hidden to prevent stupid users from doing stupid
things like deleting files ;-)
I bet i can find dozens of folders with the attributes set on your computer.

You should put [INSTALLDIR] inside [] as it is a property.

From my understanding, CostFinalize is done before any UI is shown...
however my CA validats a serial number entered by the user.
I can't launch my CA before the user enter his serial number, that wouldnt

Can re-order the sequence so that CostFinalize is only called after

Ok, i found a simple way to do it, im calling CostFinalize on the PushButton
of my Next button, on the serial number form.
Example:

Default=yes Text=amp;Next
Publish Event=DoAction Value=CheckingPID1/Publish
