Hi,

just use that property inside of the  tag:


VersionNT >=

I'm still not sure I get it.  I don't see why MsiRunningElevated is set so 
early on uninstall, 
especially since it obviously isn't.  It gives you a UAC prompt later on.  As 
for the link you sent 
me, I didn't really see anything that explains what I'm seeing.

[WiX-users] Calling Candle/Light from mapped network drive

2007-04-13 Thread Stefan Pavlik
Hi,


I know that it is a bit strange but I want to ask if it is possible
to call candle / light from mapped network drive.

The problem is described here:
http://blogs.msdn.com/shawnfa/archive/2005/02/04/367390.aspx

Error:

Unhandled Exception: System.Security.SecurityException: That
assembly does not allow partially trusted callers.
   at
System.Security.CodeAccessSecurityEngine.ThrowSecurityException(Assembly
asm, PermissionSet granted, PermissionSet refused,
RuntimeMethodHandle rmh, SecurityAction action, Object demand,
IPermission permThatFailed)
   at Microsoft.Tools.WindowsInstallerXml.Tools.Candle..ctor()
   at Microsoft.Tools.WindowsInstallerXml.Tools.Candle.Main(String[]
args)
The action that failed was:
LinkDemand
The assembly or AppDomain that failed was:
candle, Version=2.0.5130.0, Culture=neutral,
PublicKeyToken=ce35f76fcda82bad
The Zone of the assembly that failed was:
Intranet
The Url of the assembly that failed was:
file:///W:/Projects/head/wix2/candle.exe

Is there a way to call candle from network drive without rebuilding
the WiX code (and adding the AllowPartiallyTrustedCallersAttribute
to the code)?

Thanks

Stefan

[WiX-users] Patching, patching, and more patching.....

2007-04-13 Thread Nick Hennemann
Hello,

>From research I have done, it appears that this type of question has
been asked a few times before (so please hang in there)...but I am still
a little sketchy on the details of how to accomplish it or maybe if I am
understanding the process correctly.

 

Here is what I would like to do:

 

*   Create the RTM version of my installer
*   Be able to patch the RTM version with any patch that I create
for it
*   Also be able to patch the RTM version that has already been
patched with a previous (earlier) patch

 

 

In other words, if I release version 2008.0.14.0 I would like to be able
to patch it (and all the RTM's with previously distributed patches
applied) with the latest a greatest patch (let's say 2008.0.14.30) 

 

*   I would be able to patch 2008.0.14.0 to 2008.0.14.30
*   I would be able to patch 2008.0.14.15 to 2008.0.14.30
*   Etc, etc, etc

 

 

Now, it appears that this can be accomplished by adding 
and additional  tags in the patch file.  I have attempted
to create this patch and it "seems" to work (although some things
concerned me when looking at the patch.log, but side point anyways).  My
real concern is if I want to accomplish this it appears that I would
have to have an "administrative" image of every single patch and then
reference it in my PCP file with a  tagemy
"administrative" images are over 250MB in size and we could easily have
over 50-80 patches created during the time this software would be in use
by our customers.we are talking 12 - 20 GB of hard drive space (I
know, I know...hard drive space is cheap) and it seems like the patch
creation process would take for ever!!!  I tried this with just a few
administrative images and it seems to really take a lot longer than when
I only had 2 administrative images to deal with so I can only image how
long it would take with 50 admin images to deal with.  Hopefully, I am
misunderstanding how to create patches that will accomplish my goals
above and there is a cleaner way.

 

Anyone else out there trying to accomplish the same thing or have
already done so successfully?  I would love to have your input.

 

Thanks,

Nick H.

[WiX-users] How to set msidbCustomActionTypeNoImpersonate in Wix?

2007-04-13 Thread WenWu Ru
A custom action in my installer fails on Vista even if an admin user logs on 
and launches the installer.  I figured that the custom action needs to have 
msidbCustomActionTypeNoImpersonate set and adding Impersonate="no" would fix 
the issue.  To my suprise, the ActionType is still 1025.  Instead, I have to 
use Impersonate="yes" to set the bit and get the ActionType to be 3073.  Is 
this correct?  Am I missing something?  I am using WiX version 2.0.3016.0.


Impersonate="yes" BinaryKey="InstallerCustomActions.dll" 
DllEntry="WriteToRegistry" />


Thanks!

[WiX-users] Partial uninstall of previous version

2007-04-13 Thread sandeep . rawat
HI All,
 
I ‘m a new user of wix and trying to figure out a good design to solve my 
problem.
 
I’ve one version (say 1.0 ) of my product installed on my system and I want to 
upgrade it to 2.0. After the installation of 2.0, I want to partially uninstall 
the 1.0. 
By partial uninstall I mean remove/unregister files but keep the database. The 
older MSI on uninstall drops the database which is a problem for us.
 
Does their exist a good solution for this?
 
One solution I could think of is to take the DB backup and then Install 2.0, 
call RemoveExistingProducts and populate DB. But I guess this is inefficient.
 
 
Thanks
Sandeep

2007-04-13 Thread Mike Poulson
With UAC on vista no user is an admin unless they approve an elevate (via the 
UAC prompt).  If you need a custom action to run with elevated privileges (a 
real admin) then you need to do a deferred CA with Impersonate = yes. This is 
what you are doing in your sample and it is the correct way to do it.

If the German text isn't in your .msi file, it's coming from MSI or Windows.

The MSI patching model supports that but as you found, it quickly turns 
into a exponential nightmare both for building the patches and applying 
them. The general approach is to support multiple QFE patches but 
cumulative minor upgrade patches (aka service packs). The service packs 
supercede the QFEs and eventually become the required target images. It 
keeps the matrix down to a manageable level.

From a reference counting perspective, is there a fundamental difference?


Dependency doesn't cause the merge module to be merged.

If a feature does not actually use the module in the MergeRef is it 
included in the final MSI?


Merge/MergeRef are all that's necessary to indicate the module should be 
merged in.

How are you setting it? Take a look at how WixUI does it

You need to use the -ext switch to load the WixIIsExtension to process

You can't -- the "G" stands for "global," after all. It's a

With Impersonate="yes" the CA runs as the user, which isn't elevated 
even if the user accepted the UAC prompt. Instead it needs to be 
Impersonate="no" to run as LocalSystem.

Re: [WiX-users] Patching, patching, and more patching.....

2007-04-13 Thread Nick Hennemann
And it appears that the minor upgrades (service packs) would be
approximately the same size as the original install?  My orginal install
is about 110MB and the updates are about 15MB.

 

Thanks again Bob, I really appreciate you input/help.

The MSI patching model supports that but as you found, it quickly turns
into a exponential nightmare both for building the patches and applying
them. The general approach is to support multiple QFE patches but
cumulative minor upgrade patches (aka service packs). The service packs
supercede the QFEs and eventually become the required target images. It
keeps the matrix down to a manageable level.

Re: [WiX-users] Changing the value of TargetDir?

After doing a lot more fiddling, I don't believe it's a problem with my
INSTALLDIR at all (the property is correct when I call my CustomAction
at the end of the install so it appears to be setting correctly).  My
question:  My files are not installing where I'm trying to put them.  My

When I install this it always installs to c:\Referenc.CAB.  How can I

How are you setting it? Take a look at how WixUI does it 
(src\ext\UIExtension\wixlib).

Bottom line is how can I configure the installation so I don't see German.

If the German text isn't in your .msi file, it's coming from MSI or Windows.

I've been learning WiX this week and I saw the same behaviour after I tested
out localization. I had mistakenly left my Product tag with the wrong

[WiX-users] Shell Execute CA and Default/working directory

2007-04-13 Thread Doug Payne
A have a checkbox on my Setup Finished dialog which uses the ShellExec
CA to launch my application. Is there a way to specify the default
directory for my application in the CA? I think this would be the same
as specifying the lpDirectory in ShellExecute(). Alternatively, if I
have the working directory set in a shortcut, could I use the ShellExec
CA to launch the shortcut instead? Would the directory then be set
correctly? BTW, I tried launching the shortcut by setting the value of
ShellExecTarget to [#ShortcutID], but that didn't work.

[WiX-users] DLL to populate UI data

2007-04-13 Thread barbq

Hi,

I'd like to display a UI dialog with data I parse from user text files.
Where is the starting point for this (and other milestones), and would
VBScript be prefered here over standard C++ DLL?

Thanks

I've been learning WiX this week and I saw the same behaviour after I tested
out localization. I had mistakenly left my Product tag with the wrong
language attribute. I.e. I had:
(German) when it should have been:
(English)

Re: [WiX-users] Processing a tlb with heat?

2007-04-13 Thread Jeff Lopes
I haven't been able to figure out the syntax. Is heat documentation lacking, or 
am I just not finding it?

Thanks,

Jeff
