I created an MSI package, MST (transfor), and .cab file using WIX 3.0. I bundle all three up in a NullSoft self extracting exe that when called by a bootstrapper, extracts the files to a directory on disk and calls the msi using msiexec and setting the TRANSFORMS property to the .MST file.
Question is, after the product is installed, what will happing during a normal "Detect and Repair" if the user deletes a key file and then launches the app using the application short cut? The ResourceSource action, I know, will look for the SourceDir value containing the original MSI. These files are gone after the NullSoft executable runs the install and cleans up. I understand InstallShield using the SETUPEXEDIR property for dealing with this, but you do other vendors that wrap their MSI's in a setup.exe type file. Also, my NullSoft exe is not named "setup.exe", its is the MSI file name replaced with an EXE extention. Any help would be greatly appreciated. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ThinkGeek and WIRED's GeekDad team up for the Ultimate GeekDad Father's Day Giveaway.
