Hi,
I'm having problem with a scenario where the user has a program running
while he installs an update (implemented as Major upgrade). The Windows
Installer cannot replace all the files so it finishes with error code =
ERROR_SUCCESS_REBOOT_REQUIRED.

Hi everybody,
we've just encountered a problem with our WiX setup when using shared
libraries. We have two installations:
- first one is installing only one shared component "SharedBase.dll"
- second one is installing two shared components "SharedBase.dll" and
"SharedAdvanced.dll"
The issue is,
he "DigitalSignature"
element for external cabinets?
http://wix.sourceforge.net/manual-wix3/wix_xsd_digitalsignature.htm
doesn't describe the element very much :(
Thank you for your help

What are you trying to accomplish?
- If you want to detect, whether the MSI is run from your setup.exe or
from other place, this property is enough for you. - Missing property
means it is not your setup.exe :-)

Hi,
I have a bit weird question/feature request:
- Is there a way, how to skip cabinet creation? I would like Light to
create only the MSI package.
We are packaging all the files manually using CABARC from "Microsoft
Cabinet Software Development Kit" and it takes unnecessary time and disk
space
Hi everybody,
I have question about these two warnings thrown by Candle and Light

referencing some Windows Installer team recommendation, but I couldn't

them there for Maintenance.
