Arun Perregatturv,
I have resolved this problem by modifying product.xml file in bootstrapper
folder. I think following steps will help you to resolve your problem.
you have used
BootstrapperFile Include=Microsoft.Net.Framework.3.5.SP1
ProductName.NET Framework 3.5/ProductName
I would like to make use of the web.config transformations feature in
combination with the integration of Heat in VS 2010. I know I can get the
transformation output during the build, but if I use the Content project output
group then the web.config gets included from the source directory
I got it working. I was using a wrong path in the RegistrySearch =)

Hello, I'm trying to handle small, minor and major updates in WiX.
I feel sad because it doesn't work for me as it wrote in the tutorial.

I mean this example:
Code samples would help us help you.
Also that tutorial refers to Major Upgrades. Small Updates Minor

Did you mean to put .chm file in the same folder as msi package, but outside
msi package?
Is there a way to extract file from msi package?

Yes, it's possible to extract files from the binary table using a custom
action and I suspect
That's exactly what I did (in C#), and I even used Elmue's cablib:-) It
works fine, but it gets a little heavy even if I can extract single files
without upacking the whole cab.
For now I include the files as binary items and read them as such. I didn't
come to think of creating a custom table as
I am wondering about how you guys handle transactions in db upgrade scripts.
From what i have seen sql server, does not allow create/alter/drop functions
in transactions unless you have some flags sets.
First am i correct with this?
Next how do you guys go about updating the db? Should i
Here's what I'm trying to do: I have two solutions - one for my main
application and its associated projects and another for my database (VS
.dbproj) and its associated projects. What I'd like to do is include the
output from the database project (a .dbschema and some SQL scripts) in my
installer
No transaction.
Standard operating procedure is that the admin makes a full backup before an
update. Point. Admins not doing backups - should be fired.
Run the script. Use transactions for small data changes - but nothing else. If
something goes wrong, tell the admin to put in his backup ;)
Not sure if it helps but there is an example here:

Hello Wix community,
The torch.exe help text seems a bit misleading to me. For instance, I
was sure I could write something like this:
Torch.exe ... -serr abcdef...
but I couldn't. And only after looking down in code I realized it should
be -serr a -serr b, etc.
Something wrong with me? :) Or
Hello WiX community,
I noticed that although WiX dist provides a number of predefined
translations for UI, those translations don't include WiX extensions
(IIsExtension, SqlExtension, etc.) Only en-US.wxl is present in each of
them...
Does anybody have a translated set of extensions to the same
Would love to include translations for the extensions. Unfortunately,the
people contributing right now only seem to read/write/speak English so we're
dependent on the help of others. smile/

Hi all,
My apologies if this is already answered somewhere, but I couldn't find an
answer. My question is:
How can I setup a Wix installer to NOT delete the application directory on
uninstall (even when the directory was initially created by the Wix install)?

I don't know of any explicit setting to change this default behavior in
Windows Installer.
The best way to handle it would probably be to have the install manage
configuring the permissions on the directory. There is some native
permissions options in Windows Installer but they are not very
Hi Joseph,
Let's first make sure we use correct terminology. Wix is a tool to create MSI
installers. MSI installer installs, upgrades and uninstalls products and while
doing that, it also creates/deletes folders among numerous other things.
One thing you can use to solve your problem is the
We use Wix 3.0.
Some of our customers complain that the installer doesn't recognize USB drive
or other removable storage when installing.
So basically, in Destination Folder page, the end user tried to change the
install folder to a USB drive. But there is no USB drive showing up in
