Re: [WiX-users] Is it possible to install a 32-bit COM server DLL under ProgramFiles64Folder?

Also if these are shared COM components (installed by other products) it's probably not a good idea to give the user a choice at install time. You want them in a common location (but separated by bitness). Phil Wilson -Original Message- From: Bob Arnson [mailto:b...@joyofsetup.com]

I would like to take a look at Burn (I know it is not finished, but I want to start looking at it). When I went to http://sourceforge.net/projects/wix/files I didn't see a download for WiX 3.5. Since it is a development project I thought okay, I will have to get it from CVS. However, when I t

Re: [WiX-users] How to detect whether a service is running or not

That previous post might be a bit misleading, and it always helps to look at the MSI SDK docs. The "Name" in the ServiceControl table isn't the exe name - it's actually the internal name of the service. Is that perhaps the issue? Phil Wilson -Original Message- From: Sanjay Rao [mail

Re: [WiX-users] non-Profile specific class registration

Ah, why do I ask questions before I really take a good hard look? The problem here seems to be that the InstallScope is not set to "perMachine" in my Project Tag (in fact it was missing altogether). I suppose it would be nice to get a little confirmation on this, but I am pretty sure I figured

[WiX-users] Before I make the leap to Wix ...

Preliminary discovery has me almost ready to make the Wix leap from Windows Installer. But before I do, I have a some questions that I can't find the answer to in the FAQ or other (large) repositories of info: 1. I assume Wix will integrate with VSS without any problems. Is that correct? 2. I

[WiX-users] WiX Integration with VS 2008 Problem
