Hello,
I've got a solution with many projects and WIX setup project. I'm using WIX 3.5.
One project (that is referenced from WIX setup project) contains a
reference (an ordinary reference in VS) to:
C:\Program Files\WPF Toolkit\v3.5.50211.1\WPFToolkit.dll
(simply: setup project --- reference -->
I tried to use your solution in Wix 3.0: Add this attribute and
supportedruntime in customaction.config.
Rebuild the custom action in dotnet framework 2.0 and wix package.
Copy it into a WinXP + .Net 4 machine and run.
The custom action still can not be run. :(
Could you please give me more advice
candle.exe (or light.exe) is probably throwing an exception. Try debugging
in and seeing what it says.

No problems if you use a major upgrade and schedule the upgrade early.
Standardizing on Component/@Guid="*" is fantastic except when you can't use
it. The binder will tell you when that is. Then you're stuck with specifying
a GUID.

Hi,
I wrote a custom action to validate user inputs:
[CustomAction]
public static ActionResult ValidateInputs(Session session)
{
//...
If(invalid)
{ session["invalid_input"]="1";}
Return ActionResult.Success.
}
The in the Wix file I check for "invalid_input" property.
Although this works fine
v1.0.0 of a particular product was shipped with hard coded GUIDs. So, if I
change to "*" for version 1.0.1, I will have issues?

Using "*" for components should always be appropriate for all components
that accept "*" for the Guid, as long as you have never shipped the
component with a different GUID before.

However, I may be wrong. I don’t really understand what you wrote, in large
part because it doesn’t fit the pattern in the WiX help. The

That should do exactly what you want. When you have set that, can you check the

Do you want to change the identity of the existing application pool? If
not, you can just omit that attribute in order to leave the settings of
the apppool untouched. Just specify required attributes (Id and Name).
