Hi All,
I have hit a conundrum here. I have an immediate custom action that gets a list
of IIS application pools to be displayed in a ComboBox for user selection.
Now as this needs to be executed before the user interface is shown, i have
made
this an immediate custom action. This seems to
Hi all,
I my setup project, I create a sub registry key MyMgmtGroup under

Thank you - the first part of that makes perfect sense.
The second part is still a little ambiguous to me. When you say the cultures
flag decides which .wxl files are processed this implies that the MSI can
contain more than one locale, ( as the cultures flag takes a list of
cultures). I didn't
Hello good people.
I've been successful adding some templates to Visual Studio 2008, 2008
Express, 2010 and finally reached a big question mark when it comes to *2010
Express*.
It seems that using *WiX 3.5.2006* I can't find the *vwdexpress.exe path* in
the VWD2010EXPRESS_IDE property.
So far
Hi,
Where can I find the source code for the WixUI library?
I would like to use WIXUI_Mondo and leverage the existing translations etc,
however I want to swap out one of the screens to look more like the
SampleCustomUI7.wxs example with some nice icons. To do this I guess I need
the source for
You are right. An MSI can only be localized for one language. What that means
is actually pretty simple. If you look inside the MSI database (with a tool
like Orca.exe), you'll see that many of the tables contain text (the Control
table, for instance). Once the MSI is built, these strings are
The source tree is on wix.codeplex.com. Bob and Rob have both blogged about
how to access things in the new (for us) location.
In the sources, the wix ui is found at the following path:
src\ext\UIExtension
The wix sources (the bulk) are in the wixlib directory, and the associated
custom actions
Unfortunately when merely querying the system requires elevation you
typically have to engage a bootstrapper that is manifested to require
elevation to force all of your MSI to run elevated. That, of course, means
your removal from ARP will see this CA fail as well, so if you need the CA
for
Write something similar to WixExitEarlyWithSuccess that you can schedule
after your dialog(s) but before ExecuteAction. Condition the action (either
in the MSI or in your CA) on a property you set when exiting the dialog
intending for the MSI to return.

The only solution I've found to this problem is to create a bootstrapper that
starts up msiexec with my msi. The bootstrapper is marked as
requireAdministrator, so it as well as the msi's UI run elevated.
Hope this helps,

Thank you, that confirms my current understanding :)
I hadn't released that cultures were just for fall-backs and couldn't
understand why light accepted multiple wxls of different locales when the
MSI can only hold 1.

Hi,
I have an installer which creates an Web-App under the said website.
The installer installs properly. But when uninstalling the msi it deletes
the entire Website under which the Web-App was hosted.
This problem is observed in IIS 7.0 and higher.
Is this a bug in WixIISExtension or am I

Hi. I have an issue with a WIX installer that runs a custom action
using the Finish button in the exit dialog. I've tried to follow the
tutorials/examples (which are wonderful, btw), but my action fails for
Server 2008 installs. The same MSI works fine for Server 2003.
Currently, I'm blaming
Windows Installer runs EXE-style custom actions by calling CreateProcess,
which does not allow UAC prompting, and will fail if the OS Loader considers
that the prompt would have been required.
I believe that the WixShellExec custom action should work for you.

Thanks, that worked. I thought I tried that technique yesterday, but
must have made a mistake in the code as it failed. Good to know that
fact about CreateProcess; it might come in handy later.

Hi,
In our installer I am getting error 2858 when the installer is run on XP Pro
32.
Actual log entry is Debug: Error 2858. The data for bitmap background is not
valid.
This problem is not seen on Windows 7.
Has anyone noticed similar behavior?
What could be causing this problem?

Don't worry guys. I've shifted the condition to my C++ wrapper. Now, the msi
only gets called if it can't find a network image.

To get UAC prompts, you have to use ShellExecute. CreateProcess comes later
in the call stack for program launching and no prompt can be performed at
that point (which is handy if you ever call other executables from a service
and there may not be an accessible desktop to respond to a prompt).
We have a C# assembly that contains methods called during install and
uninstall. But, on Windows XP it appears that both actions are being
called, CAInstall and later CAUninstall. How can this be?
Here is the CustomAction and InstallExecuteSequence code
CustomAction Id=CAInstall
Is there a built-in way to retrieve the date (8/18/2010) at install-time?
The environment variable DATE returns Wed 08/18/2010 which then requires
string formatting.
This would be cake in Java script or VB script, but is there a way to return
values from the custom action (other than exit

Immediate custom actions can both read and set properties, as well as read
database tables and add temporary rows.
