I get a hardware not signed dialog with "continue anyway" and "stop
installation" buttons while trying to install an unsigned driver using my
MSI. But installation does not get terminated if I click "Stop installation"
button..What could be the possible reasons for this?? How do I modify the

Ok, this is good to know. :) So, is there another way of installing
COMPlus DLLs? Is there a tutorial for Wix in this area? :)

If you don't know what a COM+ partition is you probably don't need it. They are
used for side-by-side'ish registration, to tie components to specific users.

You can add those files to your project and avoid using any additional

Sorry, I figured it out. I was really swamped and starving and when
intellisense went all red~ I was confused. It seems there are no
attributes of this element, you just have to close it out and move on to the
Custom element.
The intelisense experience is a bit wierd though...

For a client/server application, I have the server and client WiX projects
in a single solution using Votive and WiX v3 in VS 2005.
The server project has a reference to the client project to include the MSI
inside the server installation. We don't run the client installer. We simply

I'm writing a merge module which will contain a Type 1 custom action wired into
the ModuleInstallUISequence table and I'm having a hard time figuring out how
to do this in WiX.
According to wix.chm, the InstallExecuteSequence and InstallUISequence
elements are children of the Module element
Sorry, my fault.

Hi All,
Firstly, let me confess that I'm new to Windows Installer and WiX,
coming from a rather antiquated WISE install system (10 years old!) and
finally embracing the modern way.
Amongst other things, something I'm trying to do is install files only
if they exist. Our system ships with

I am using WIX to generate an MSI. The problem is with the uninstall option
through the wizard. If any version of SQL server exists, it does not uninstall
the application. But if sql server is not present it uninstalls successfully.

I'm not sure what the best way would be to configure these in the
install. Do I need a COMPlus Partition? What is that all about? I'm
not sure where to start with these.

contains the path to where the product is being installed to. My merge
module uses the code below to do it, but it's not working quite right.
When the product gets installed to "c:\program files\mycompany\myapp",
