Re: [WiX-users] Errors for COM+ Extension

2015-02-25 Thread Aaron Newton
Hello Nir,

Yes, this was for a Visual Studio project. And yes, adding a reference
for WixComPlusExtension.dll appears to have resolved the issue.

Thank you for your assistance.

Kind regards,
Aaron Newton

You can use a Condition

element.
In the below sample the control will be hidden for US English:

[WiX-users] How to localize appearance of a dialog using localization variables?

2015-02-25 Thread sky
Hi. I want to hide a button on a custom WiX dialog(purely using WiX) in a
specific language. Is this possible by using WiX localization variables(.wxl
files)? I can localize text, size and location of buttons, but I don't know
I can hide a button. Or, is it possible to create dialog sets for each
language, like in MFC?

Thanks.

[WiX-users] Installing the Visual Studio Redistributable from within MSI Failing

2015-02-25 Thread Sarvagya Pant
I am attempting to install the dependency of my program
*vcredist_x86_2008.exe* and *vcredist_x86_2010.exe* from my msi before it
attempts to install the program itself. I have following piece of code.

I have two other custom actions *WRITEFILETODISK*, which will get the
parameters passed to installer and write config in file, and *ResidueRemove*
that is to be run on uninstallation, which has to remove leftovers if any.
Installing the msi using /l*v mode, I get the following:

Error 1721. There is a problem with this Windows Installer package. A
program required for this install to complete could not be run.
Contact your support personnel or package vendor. Action:

Isn't this the proper way of installing another exe from msi? please

Re: [WiX-users] extension errror

2015-02-25 Thread vcurran


Have all that. Have a reference in AssemblyInfo to the extension class 

[assembly: AssemblyDefaultWixExtension(typeof(MyExtensionClass))]

Looking at the assembly in reflector (or JustDecompile) I can see the table
definition (.xml) and the wix library (.wixlib) I am returning with those
override methods in the Resources with the correct names. So I think I'm ok
there.

Thanks for your time.

[WiX-users] extension errror

2015-02-25 Thread vcurran
Afternoon all.

I am putting together my first Wix extension and I'm getting the following
when adding the extension assembly into my Wix solution.

 error CNDL0307: The extension type 'TestVC.Compiler' in extension
'C:\vtemp\24022015\'TestVC.dll' does not inherit from the expected class
'Microsoft.Tools.WindowsInstallerXml.WixExtension'.

But I already have an extension class inheriting from WixExtensions (and set
in AssemblyInfo.cs as AssemblyDefaultWixExtension). Why is it identifying my
compiler class that is inherting from CompierExtension as an extension
class?

Thanks,

V.

Re: [WiX-users] How to localize appearance of a dialog using localization variables?

2015-02-25 Thread Phill Hogland
I suspect that you will need to put the logic to hide the button in a
BAFunctions.dll.  See the samples in the wix source archive. 
src\burn\Samples\bafunctions.  There is more information on this approach at
wixextba.codeplex.com where the concept of a BAfunctions dll was developed
(for wix 3.7) and later integrated into wix 3.8 (and later).

[WiX-users] Upgrade issue

2015-02-25 Thread Steve-Ogilvie
Hi folks,

I have an installer (MSI) with a bootstrapper, installs and uninstalls
perfectly
The GUID is set to * and the upgrade code is the same each build. (the
version of the MSI/Bootstrapper and binaries that we are installing is
15.1.4.x)

To test that an Upgrade will work, I have built our binaries that we install
with an incremented version i.e. 15.2.4.x

so that is a Major upgrade since GUID has changed (each build) and the 2nd
version number has changed.

I install the "old" installer, then upgrade to the "new" installer, and it
works perfectly...

The only issue is that the "old" installer is still listed in Programs and
Features with the "new" installer

I have looked at the Bootstrapper bundle.wxs and the product.wxs for the MSI
to see if any thing is out of place and I can't see anything...

any idea what would cause this?

BTW I have other products and the upgrade works fine without any issues, as
what I had expected this installer to do as well

Cheers,

Steve
Using WIX 3.8

Re: [WiX-users] WSX file contains extra files?

2015-02-25 Thread Phill Hogland
"WXS file is missing files:" or "Error  5   WXS file contains extra files: 
" are
not in the wix source code.  My guess is that you have heat authoring and a
MSBuild script that you need to understand, which is generating those
messages.  I don't think it has anything to do with wix or vs2008.

Re: [WiX-users] Upgrade issue

2015-02-25 Thread Phill Hogland
I had some  similar problem

  
a few weeks back, and while Bob's suggestions were helpful, I set aside that
problem to work on some other fires, and did not return to complete the
analysis.  What did get me past the problem, for the moment was to comment
out all of my uses of 

I believe what was going on was that my bundle chain had several
PackageGroupRefs to ExEPackages which were marked as permanent.  Then I had
a RollbackBoundry.  Then I had various MSIs.  So I think my scenario was
that the MSI after the RollbackBoundry had a problem.  So when I deployed
the new bundle (with all packages and the bundle built with new versions and
product codes), the new bundle caused the old bundle to uninstall.  But the
uninstall exits with success as it seems to think that nothing is installed,
because all msi packages were previously uninstalled on rollback.  The
bundle never uninstalls due to the permanent packages still in the chain
prior to the RollbackBoundry.

Again, this is theory, and unproven at this point.  After removing all of
the RollbackBoundary authoring, and start testing on a clean VM, I did not
duplicate the problem again.  I have not had a chance to get back and focus
on this specific issue.

Re: [WiX-users] Installing the Visual Studio Redistributable from within MSI Failing

2015-02-25 Thread Hoover, Jacob
Use Burn to install the prerequisites.  There is no proper way of doing a 
nested/concurrent install from within a single MSI.

MSI Failing

I am attempting to install the dependency of my program
*vcredist_x86_2008.exe* and *vcredist_x86_2010.exe* from my msi before it 
attempts to install the program itself. I have following piece of code.


  NOT 
Installed
  Installed
  NOT Installed
  NOT 
Installed

I have two other custom actions *WRITEFILETODISK*, which will get the 
parameters passed to installer and write config in file, and *ResidueRemove* 
that is to be run on uninstallation, which has to remove leftovers if any.
Installing the msi using /l*v mode, I get the following:

Error 1721. There is a problem with this Windows Installer package. A program 
required for this install to complete could not be run.
Contact your support personnel or package vendor. Action:

Isn't this the proper way of installing another exe from msi? please correct it 
if I'm wrong.

Thank You! I was beginning to wonder if it had something to do with ms

"WXS file is missing files:" or "Error 5 WXS file contains extra files: "
are not in the wix source code.  My guess is that you have heat authoring
and a MSBuild script that you need to understand, which is generating those
messages.  I don't think it has anything to do with wix or vs2008.

Once again, the “new” build was a one off build with the version number
changed to make it a major upgrade…

Version changed:

Old 15.1.4.x
New  15.2.4.x
 
GUID changes every build

Upgrade Code remains the same

Re: [WiX-users] Installing the Visual Studio Redistributable from within MSI Failing

2015-02-25 Thread Sarvagya Pant
Hi Nir, The Thing is that I do have the MSM for Visual Studio 2010 but my
project uses Openssl, built using VS 2008. I don't have the MSM for 2008.
So that was the issue of installing VCRedist.
