Thanks, I'll take a look at bootstrapping.
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa367553.aspx gave me the impression that after the forecereboot, the installer would be relaunched and I could then perform the queue set up, hence trying to perform the MSMQ stuff before installing any files. -----Original Message----- From: David Watson [mailto:dwat...@sdl.com] Sent: 09 March 2011 17:20 To: General discussion for Windows Installer XML toolset. Subject: Re: [WiX-users] custom actions after reboot Put a launch condition in that cancels your installation if msmq is not installed. If you really need to install msmq for your user use a bootstrapper that installs it before your msi is called. -----Original Message----- From: Matthew Slane [mailto:matthew.sl...@thetrainline.com] Sent: 09 March 2011 16:58 To: General discussion for Windows Installer XML toolset. Subject: Re: [WiX-users] custom actions after reboot Hi, I'm getting a bit frustrated with constantly rebooting to try and get this working. If MSMQ is installed the queue gets created. If MSMQ isn't installed, it gets installed and throws the following message before forcing the reboot: "The installer has encountered an unexpected error installing this package. This may indicate a problem with the package. The Error code is 28101." I'm using an wsx file based on the tutorial at www.tramontana.co.hu/wix/lesson1.php I need to force the reboot and then install the msmqueues component if MSMQ gets installed. <?xml version='1.0' encoding='windows-1252'?> <Wix xmlns='http://schemas.microsoft.com/wix/2006/wi' xmlns:pca="http://schemas.microsoft.com/wix/MsmqExtension"; xmlns:util="http://schemas.microsoft.com/wix/UtilExtension";> <Product Name='Foobar 1.0' Id='{D657286E-E865-43e3-B6F3-F37A0AC032BB}' UpgradeCode='{F4FD13DB-B92B-4e4d-A6F6-35DFCA877DC2}' Language='1033' Codepage='1252' Version='1.0.0' Manufacturer='Acme Ltd.'> <Package Id='*' Keywords='Installer' Description="Acme's Foobar 1.0 Installer" Comments='Foobar is a registered trademark of Acme Ltd.'

I've also got MsmqExtension working to create queues. I haven't got them working together. The installer works nicely if MSMQ is already installed, otherwise it installs the program but throws 28101 error messages and the queues arent' created. Looking at the logs this appears to be caused by failing to load mqrt.dll. I suspect this is because the machine needs rebooting after installing MSMQ. How would I go about creating the queues post-reboot if MSMQ is installed when running the msi? I could do it on start up in the programs that are installed, but I'm meant to be in feature freeze until after first release, plus I'm curious. Thanks Matt.
