Hi,
I am attempting to customise my installer dialogs.
I have a that prompts for a database instance
name - but I only want to display the Dialog if the user has opted to
install
On the previous I have this:
[CDATA[(&DbFeature=3)]]
This is giving an error:
Entity 'DbFeature' not defined.
..but if you cant do that, keep it in both and set
CustomAction/@Execute="firstSequence".

Take them out of the InstallUISequence unless there's some UI that
depends upon them.

I need to run immediate custom actions before showing my UI, so I've
currently got them near the beginning of InstallUISequence.
But I also need them to run in a "quiet" installation. So it seems they
need to also be in InstallExecuteSequence.
I've currently got them in both sequences, and am u
Directory ID's can be anything you like as long as they're valid
identifiers (see http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-gb/library/aa369212.aspx)
since they go directly into the Directory table. They don't need to
reflect the actual name of the directory.
Just rename it after harvesting.

Cool! I stand corrected on if symbols are loaded in this situation. Symbols are
not loaded in the traditional symbol server sense of
\file.pdb\\file.pdb approach. I'm so used to thinking of the symbol
server that way I didn't see that just setting _NT_SYMBOL_PATH=c:\syms will be
searched as wel
Hi,
I am harvesting (heat dir) a directory structure like this:
foo

+ 1234
+ a.a
+ b.b
The output is as follows:
I am wondering about the Id "_1234". I suppose the Id cannot be purely numeric,
so the underscore i

That's a very good question, Ed. I've only tested it on our boxes, and we only
ever have 1 rev of our code there at a time.
Don't know what would happen if we started installing multiple versions, but
thanks for making that point.

Doesn't that only work if you have one version of an assembly?
Two Acme.dlls (v1 and v2) in the gac present a problem, doesn't it?

Have you looked at the help output from heat.exe?
The -suid flag is what you're looking for.

Hi John...
Actually, putting your .net pdbs in _NT_SYMBOL_PATH *does* work; that's
why I'm trying to do it.

I came to adding it to my installers after proving that it worked by
doing it manually.
Hi all,
first email to this list. I have no experience of installers, Wix and

Hi,
when I run "heat dir", the output wxs file contains blocks like this:
Is there a way to make the generated IDs match the filenames, i.e.
I am looking (Orca) at another MSI that was created this way (using heat), and
it has these nice IDs.
Thanks,

Create the default directory structure as you normally would in WiX and set the
id of the
configurable directory to 'installpath'. When the user overrides installpath
on the command line,
it will change that directory to point at the new path.
