[WiX-users] Burn: Launch using -passive option as default

2014-01-07 Thread Farrukhw
I'm using Wix 3.8 Burn and looking for an event like OnExecuteApp. We can
launch bootstrapper.exe using -passive option so that it would auto start
its installation process.

(Note: Type "BootStrapper.exe /?" to see other options.)

*Question:* How can we set bootstrapper.exe to launch with -passive option
by-default?

Thanks

Re: [WiX-users] Burn: Launch using -passive option as default

2014-01-07 Thread Farrukhw
Yes, using following, it is wixstdba:
  

Is there any other method like proving Bootstrapper.exe.config or
Bootstrapper.ini kind of thing in which we can specify its parameters, so
that whenever user invoke it, it takes its parameters by default..

I know I can wrap it using Autoit kind of things, but avoid using more
resources...

Thanks


-passive is just a hint passed to the BootstrapperAplication suggesting how
to show any UI. If you're using wixstdba, there is no way (that I know of
today) to say "always start in passive mode". You could implement your own
BA of course.

[WiX-users] Custom Managed Boostrapper and Maintenance dialog

2014-01-29 Thread Farrukhw
Hi everyone,

Presently, I'm working with a Managed Bootstrapper with its own UI written
in WinForms (.Net 2.0 based). It is able to install my msi using
DisplayInternalUI="yes" and "no" very well.


  
  
  



  
  


However, from Add-Remove programs, it display nothing, but uninstall
silently.

So far, after some Googling, I've figure-out that I might have to add my own
UI in replacement of MSI's Maintenance Dialog and figure-out
Bootstrapper.LaunchAction enums depending upon user's selection via my
custom dialog.

However, I still think, I might be missing something here. If anyone knows
if it is possible to display MSI's Maintenance dialog using Managed
Bootstrapper installation.

Regards

[WiX-users] WIX Patches: Windows restores patched files and can't uninstall patch

2012-11-06 Thread Farrukhw
Hi Experts, 
I'm generating a patch using following code:


http://schemas.microsoft.com/wix/2006/wi";>
  




http://www.xyz.com/";
Classification="Update"
DisplayName="My Patch for 8.11.10.111"
 
/>


  

  
  






  


It generates my msp properly which I tried to install using following
command line:
* msiexec /p MyPatch.msp REINSTALLMODE=oums REINSTALL=ALL /qb
 And 
msiexec /p MyPatch.msp REINSTALL=ALL /qb
*
In both cases, it is first patch my application partially i.e. *.exe files
are patched, but not dlls. And it refused to get uninstalled from Add-Remove
programs applet.
*
**But when I launched my application, Windows Installer Dialog appeared and
it restored its patched files :(**
*

If I apply this patch again, it patched properly all files, but still
refusing to uninstall. 
*
**AllowRemoval="yes" doesn't seems to be working.***

So I'm quite confused with this behavior. 

Any help/suggestion would be really appreciated.

Thanks a bunch.

[WiX-users] Wix: Installing a Component while Repair Or Reinstall

2012-02-09 Thread Farrukhw
*Problem:*
I have a User Requirement in which a file would not be installed if a
Prerequisite application is absent on users machine. But after installing my
product, when user would install that Prerequisite application, he would run
my installer and choose repair to install that missing file and its related
registry entries.

*My expectations:*
I know Repair would only repair those files that would already been
installed by first installation. But isn't there any workaround about
this???

Any here and ther with AddLocal???

Thanks a bunch in advance.

Hi jhennessey
Thanks for the reply. 

Yes, there is a condition on the component which is defined by a vbscript
custom action scheduled in Execute Sequence after CostFinalize, so that is
running during reinstall.

*But what if the component is not installed at first installation? Would
Component/@Transitive=yes make it to install during reinstall?*

Thanks Neil,
But that's a full product upgrade. My task is to generate a patch which

I just tried this:

and it worked. It changed the version that 4 digit version successfully. But
only problem I faced is when I launched the msp file, it showed Customize
Dialog (Repair, Reinstall, Uninstall) and I have to click on Repair but it
did the job.

i want to get rid of that Customize Dialog and wanted that this should do
the job directly.

Any ideas?

[WiX-users] Patch can't update installed product and shows Change/Repair dialog..

2012-07-18 Thread Farrukhw
Hi Guys,
I'm building a patch using PCP, according to this tutorial:
http://wix.sourceforge.net/manual-wix3/patch_building.htm
http://wix.sourceforge.net/manual-wix3/patch_building.htm 

I'v two MSI (extracted as Admin installs) 
1. 8.11.9.225 (This is my target to update)
2. 8.11.9.353 (The latest one).

Above procedure worked without any problem and generates my .msp file, but
of a big size (500+ MB) so I think, it is getting too much differences.

However, whenever I tried to install this patch, it shows Change/Repair
Dialog, and if I use Change or Repair, in both cases it error 
 "Another version is already installed. You must first uninstall it in order
to install this version."

I even changed the Product Code in the 2nd msi (in all tables), but it can't
solve any problem.

Here is my patch code:


*As it is generating a big size .msp, should I use msp for such size or do
major upgrade?*

Any help would be really appreciate

Best regards

Hi Peter,
Thanks for your reply..

I've given msi builds which were not designed by me and after Pyro's
complaint, I investigated that in every build, same named components got new
Component ID (GUID).

Although, I've informed the owners and asked them if they are changing the
Component IDs for each build, but I'm also thinking to write a script to
extract the GUIDs from original msi and update/correct in updated msi, but I
know it would not be a good idea...

[WiX-users] Burn: Managed Boostrapper upgrade but Installs side by side with older version

2014-02-18 Thread Farrukhw
I'm struggling with my Custom Boostrapper Upgrade issue. By following  this
stackoverflow thread

 
, I'm using LaunchAction.Install.

This does Upgrade the Product as well as Boostrapper, but older Bootstrapper
remains there, as shown in following screen shot.

 

If I invoke ver 1.0.0.0 from here, it would display Dialog to Install, but
would do nothing. However, invoking ver 1.0.1.0 would give me the option to
Uninstall the product. However, upon Uninstall, it would only remove itself,
and "My Product" is left behind.

I also tried with

_bootstrapper.Engine.Plan(LaunchAction.UpdateReplace);
and

_bootstrapper.Engine.Plan(LaunchAction.UpdateReplaceEmbedded);
but it has no effect.

Question: How to upgrade older installation with falling in above situation?
Can anyone please provide a working example of CustomBA upgrade?

Would really appreciate any help in this regard.
Thanks

Re: [WiX-users] Burn: Managed Boostrapper upgrade but Installs side by side with older version

2014-02-18 Thread Farrukhw
Hi Rob :)
I should have attached the log file before.. Adding the log file from
version 1.0.1.0 while updating 1.0.0.0.
MyProdSoftwareInstaller.log

  

Btw, to me, this doesn't show any indication to be installing side by side.
But I'm not good with logs files.

Please guide.

Thanks

Yes, that may be because before Apply Complete, it is not finished and
-uninstall is failing.

I tested 'MyProdSoftwareInstaller.exe" -uninstall" and it has no effect. So
looks like burn engine is issuing -uninstall, but
MyProdSoftwareInstaller.exe is not responding to -uninstall.

I wonder where -uninstall or other arguments are passed to Burn Engine.. ? 

Any hint/guide?

Re: [WiX-users] Burn: Managed Boostrapper upgrade but Installs side by side with older version

2014-02-18 Thread Farrukhw
Sean,
There was Environment.Exist(this.FinalResult) in ApplyComplete(). Now
replaced with:
this.FinalResult = e.Status; //Storing the final status code.
bootstrapperApplication.Engine.Quit(e.Status);

Please find latest log attached with this reply.

However, I've figured out that "this.Command.GetCommandLineArgs().Length()"
is 0 if I pass -uninstall or -log (Bootstrapper's command line). But when I
pass -Sean or -Farrukh, its length > 0, and it does recognize these.

>From log, it looks like -uninstall has no effect upon it. Now I'm wondering
where bootstrapper's arguments are vanishing?

Re: [WiX-users] Burn: Managed Boostrapper upgrade but Installs side by side with older version

2014-02-18 Thread Farrukhw
So when if found (Engine.Detect) that 1.0.0.0 is there, the Command got
Uninstall automatically. But we are invoking our UI dialogs here like:

if(MyViewModel.PState==PackageState.Absent)
   Application.Run(BootStrapDlgs.Welcome_Dlg);  //Let's start with
Welcome Dlg
 else
 Application.Run(BootStrapDlgs.Install_Uninstall_Repair_Dlg);

And I can see that it doesn't do Uninstall, instead it is launching the
Install_Uninstall_Repair_Dlg where Update button is available. However, that
in turn executes Welcome_Dlg of 1.0.0.0 and shows the Install button.

How to make it respect -uninstall and -quite arguments?

[WiX-users] WixBA shows No .Net Framework installed

2014-02-24 Thread Farrukhw
Experimentally, I simply copied WixBA project from Wix 3.7 source. Replaced
the reference from core.csproj to BootstrapperCore and tried to use it with
my own Bundle which is working fine with my own Manged Bootstrapper. It
built fine. But strangely, when I tried to run it, it showed me the dialog
to install .Net framework. And I already have .Net framework 4.5 installed.
I even tried with changing the WixBA's Targetframework to 4.5, but resulted
in same thing.

Why is that so? Is there any security technique used, so that no other
Bundle can be used with it? If yes, then I'm curious to know?

I also consulted in WixBA project from Wix 3.7 source, but its command line

I would really appreciate any help, as this upgrade scenario is block my
Bootstrapper project.

Thanks a bunch.

[WiX-users] Is this a Bug in Wix Bootstrapper command line?

2014-02-25 Thread Farrukhw
I already posted a related problem here:
http://windows-installer-xml-wix-toolset.687559.n2.nabble.com/Managed-BA-command-line-not-effective-td7592884.html
and
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/21989084/wix-managed-ba-command-line-not-effective,
which is about command line passed during upgrade.

Now I tried to explore, how it interpret the command line. Here is my run
method to do so:

protected override void Run()
{
  string cmdOptions = string.Empty;
  this.Engine.Log(LogLevel.Verbose, "Launching custom TestBA UX");

   foreach (string cmdOpt in this.Command.GetCommandLineArgs())
   {
  cmdOptions += cmdOpt + "\n"; //collecting command line options
passed.
   }

Debug.WriteLine("Command.Display: {0} Command.Action: {1}",
this.Command.Display.ToString(), this.Command.Action.ToString());
   Environment.Exit(1);
}

I understand that Wixdba would digest its own command line options and would
pass extra to our Managed Bootstrapper Application. From above mentioned
post, this line from log:

[1A44:1E54][2014-02-24T17:47:22]i301: Applying execute package:
{f1d57671-5e3d-4be7-908f-5a47e72737d9}, action: Uninstall, path:
C:\ProgramData\Package
Cache\{f1d57671-5e3d-4be7-908f-5a47e72737d9}\BootstrapperSetup.exe,
arguments: '"C:\ProgramData\Package
Cache\{f1d57671-5e3d-4be7-908f-5a47e72737d9}\BootstrapperSetup.exe"
-uninstall -quiet -burn.related.upgrade'

shows that it is passing -uninstall and -quiet to BootstrapperSetup.exe
which is in cache i.e. already installed there.

Here are the results of command line options passed to Bootstrapper:

/C:\bin\Debug>BootstrapperSetup.exe -quite -uninstall/
*Command.Display: Full,  Command.Action: Uninstall * 

/C:\bin\Debug>>BootstrapperSetup.exe -q -uninstall/
*Command.Display: None  Command.Action: Uninstall*

/C:\bin\Debug>>BootstrapperSetup.exe -q -u/
*Command.Display: None  Command.Action: Install*


*Summary:* From above test, it seems that 

 1. -quite is not effective, while -q does.
 2. -u is not effective, while -Uninstall does.

Although, after knowing this, I can parse for -quite and -u in my Managed
Bootstrapper, but I would like to know, *If it is a Bug or I'm doing
something wrong here*.

Best regards

[WiX-users] Wix Bootstrapper maximum number of packages and file size limit

2014-03-19 Thread Farrukhw
Sorry, if this is a re-post.

We have lots of third party components (msi, exe installer) to be delivered
on user's machine. Although, there is a main script, used to install these
in a required sequence on user's machine, but for delivery purposes, we are
creating one self extracting archive using WinRAR. Its size is 3.50 GB at
this time.

*Problem:* When we tried to sign this exe using signtool (use similar to
sign our other binaries), it always got corrupted and become unusable.

Now we are thinking to pack these in Wix based bootstrapper and do the
installation on target machine. However we are unaware about Bootstrapper's
file size maximum limit.

Re: [WiX-users] Managed bootstrapper on a PC without .NET framework 4.0

2014-05-16 Thread Farrukhw
Sky, I faced same problem. At the end, we discovered that on Win 7 with no
SP, we are getting this error. When we installed Net Framework 4
(dotNetFx40_Full_x86_x64.exe) on same windows, it started working fine. 

So finally we got to know that on Windows 7 + Service Pack 1, it may work
fine. 

However, I haven't got a chance to test is on fresh Windows 7 with SP1.

Now I'm trying to find out how to avoid this, in case there in Windows 7
with No SP on target machine??

2014-05-16 Thread Farrukhw
Ok, just solved this. On Windows 7 without SP1, there is Net FW 3.5. In my
BootstrapperCore.Config file, it was:



 **


*I removed .* This causes
bootstrapper to launch .Net FW 4.0 installation (Packed with as payload). It
updated the machine with .Net FW 4 and then launched my bootstrapper, and
now working like charm.. :)

Hope, it would help you as well.

[WiX-users] Using '*' in Component Guids and Patches

2014-05-25 Thread Farrukhw
Hi
While searching for best practices, I came across  this thread

 
, which is discussing the use of '*' instead of GUIDs in components. 

As far I know, while generating GUID dynamically from '*', if the
destination of a Component is changes, so its GUID would also be changed.
There may be some other factors as well.

Let's say we released ver 1.0.0.0 and then in 1.0.1.0 we changed the
destination of a Component from Dir1 to Dir2.

*Question:* If we generate Differential Patch between these two versions,
would the file get patched who's destination was changed in ver 1.0.1.0?
Would using '*' in this case would be good?

Regards
Farrukh

Re: [WiX-users] Using '*' in Component Guids and Patches

2014-05-28 Thread Farrukhw
It might not be a common practice, but I faced it due to some customer
requirement when we have to move a dll to another location. So ethically,
it should be a Major Upgrade which would handle it with no problem. But I
was asked to build a patch, as it is just one dll,

So we build a new dll with a new incremented version and while sing same
GUID for the component, patch didn't moved the file to new location, but
did updated the dll to the new version.

However, I tried to reproduced this using "*" instead of GUID and it simply
didn't worked.

That's not a differential patch. Its a minor upgrade using the msi...

[WiX-users] HarvestDirectory target for multiple directories

2014-09-19 Thread Farrukhw
I'm trying to harvest different folders in my *.wixproj file. But
HeatDirectory task is only harvesting last HarvestDirectory target. What I'm
missing here?

Here is my code segment:

 

  Components.wxs


  
  

  true
  SimpleWebAppGroup
  INSTALLFOLDER
  true
  true
  var.SourceDir
 false



  true
  SVNOverLays
  PROGFILES
  true
  true
  var.SourceDir
  false

  
  
  

  

  


If I omit HeatDirectory task, it would definitely not updating
Component.wxs. I didn't find any example showing the use of HarvestDirectory
with HeatDirectory task. While  Wix documentation

  
shows that HarvestDirectory target passes HarvestDirectory items to the
HeatDirectory task to generate authoring from a file. 

Any help would be really appreciated.

[WiX-users] HeatDirectory failure on TFS

2014-09-24 Thread Farrukhw
Hi experts, 
I'm using HeatDirectory task in my *.wixproj file, which is working very
fine on my machine, being built locally.

However, on TFS, it is failing with following error:

C:\Program Files (x86)\WiX Toolset v3.8\bin\Heat.exe dir
D:\Builds\32\48\bin\Debug\InstallSrc\WebApp\ -cg CompGrp_WebApp -dr WebApp

directory named MSBuild_*.failure.txt.


However, on same build machine, I tried to execute heat command line
(generated by above log) and got it working fine: i.e.
C:\Program Files (x86)\WiX Toolset v3.8\bin\Heat.exe dir
D:\Builds\32\48\bin\Debug\InstallSrc\WebApp\ -cg CompGrp_WebApp -dr WebApp
-ke -scom -sreg -srd -var var.WebAppSrc -v -ag -sfrag -suid -out WebApp_.wxs



I even tried it, by disabling MsBuild Multi-Proc (building projects in
parallel) in TFS definition, but in vain.

Why it is failing on TFS, but not locally?

Thanks a bunch.

Hi John,
Thanks for reply. Presently, MSBuild PlatForm is Auto. 
However, I'm just wondering how the command line generated in MsBuild log
working on command line? In addition, same MsBuild project is working just
fine if we build it in Visual Studio or using MsBuild command line.

[WiX-users] TFS: Wix can't see its source files if using TfvcTemplate.12.xaml.

2014-10-13 Thread Farrukhw
I need to use TfvcTemplate.12.xaml because of its Pre and Post build script
execution support and I need to run a Powershell script as PreBuild event.

On TFS 2013, Building a Wix project using old DefaultTemplate.xaml works
fine. While trying to build using new default template TfvcTemplate.12.xaml
builds the csharp project fine, but Wix is unable to find its files, while
files are present at same location. 

Here is the log from TFS:




I verified multiple times that files are there and it builds without any
problem at command line using MsBuild and Wix Tool set as well. 

I'm unable to figure out why using TfvcTemplate.12.xaml, wix is unable to
see its files while these are present intact there



Any help would be really appreciated.

Well, I got it with 2013 actually and I'm trying to run a script for
versioning, just according to  this msdn article
  

and it is working just as guided and expected. But Wix's behavior is not as
expected. However, I do have a Wix project on another TFS repository which
is working fine with same parameters. But I can't figure out what's wrong
now while using with other projects...?

Re: [WiX-users] TFS: Wix can't see its source files if using TfvcTemplate.12.xaml.

2014-10-13 Thread Farrukhw
I've set to Unrestricted for the sake for making things run. But it is even
failing when no script is specified, i.e. simply building Solution just as
we were doing in older DefaultTemplate...

I've posted the code and log as well. I tested this with a small C#
application with no dependency to build or import/copy/install i.e. just a
simple application. And tested with TfvcTemplate as well as old
DefaultTemplate, and facing same issue i.e. building on older
DefaultTemplate while only Wix is not able to see its files when it is on
TfvcTEmplate...

Re: [WiX-users] TFS: Wix can't see its source files if using TfvcTemplate.12.xaml.

2014-10-15 Thread Farrukhw
So, finally I was able to solve this after a whole day struggle. Like Digg a
mountain and got a mice :).

Actually TfvcTemplate.12.xaml seems to be executing MsBuild with parallel
processing enabled (/m), while in my VS Solution, Wix project was added
independently i.e. in Build Order it was the last project to build, but I
never set other projects as its dependencies. So MSBuild found that it has
no dependency and ignored its Build Order and simply building it either on
random order or as first project. So naturally installer project was unable
to find its source files and so failing. 

I verified this phenomena by removing /m:1 argument to MSBuild and declaring
all other projects as Dependencies of Wix Project: i.e. in VS, PROJECT –>
Project Dependencies. This caused MsBuild to build all other projects before
Wix Project and now Wix is able to find its Source files properly…

Here is the screenshot for illustration:

[WiX-users] Repost: Wix Burn and KeyPath file hot repair/restore by Windows Installer.

2014-10-20 Thread Farrukhw
Hi, 
Reposting with a hope that someone may be able to give some guidance, as
last time it was left abandoned: 
 
I've developed a Managed Bootstrapper and now near to release the product.
Normally, if a KeyPath file is removed/modified, Windows Installer would try
to restore/repair that. But in case we used Managed Bootstrapper to deliver
the product, Windows Installer service would be asking for the source msi
installer files, which we have packed into the Bootstrapper in this case. 

How to let Windows Installer get the missing files from Boostrapper Package?

[WiX-users] Guidelines/Tutorial for Bootstrapper in native (C++)

2014-11-03 Thread Farrukhw
Hi,
There are some good guidelines available for developing Bootstrapper in
managed code. And I've developed one and working very much fine. 

I'm wondering is someone could guide me towards developing a Bootstrapper in
native code (C++), i.e. a jump start... 

Is there any precise guide/tutorial available?

Thanks

[WiX-users] wixstdba: Using Win-Forms or MFC based UI instead of Theme UI (xml based)

2014-11-05 Thread Farrukhw
Hi 
While reading source code for WiX Extended Bootstrapper Application, I'm
wondering if I want to replace this Theme manipulation (xml based) with
Win-Forms or MFC based UI, do I have to modify/rewrite all that or I can
simply use references of some library, just as in case of Managed
Bootstrapper, where we are using BootstrapperCore.dll??

wixstdba is mainly integrated with XML based Themes which it is managing in
different events: For Example in
CWixStandardBootstrapperApplication::OnCacheAcquireProgress(), there are
method calls like ThemeSetTextControl() or ThemeSetProgressControl(). 

Is there any good guide/Tutorial/Example for using Win-Forms or MFC based
UI? 

Regards 
Farrukh

As mentioned by Jeremiahf, you need to managed your Upgrade scenarios using

In your case, you may need to do a major upgrade.

Also, please check if you are not changing Product GUID in your next

[WiX-users] Managed Bootstrapper initializing progress indicator ...

2014-11-19 Thread Farrukhw
Hi fellows,
Our Bootstrapper consuming Burn is of 70MB, containing Net Framework 4, VC
Runtimes and two more pre-requisites + Product.msi itself. Whenever we
execute it from a network location, it took much longer time to execute
(last time it was almost 40 seconds . We suspect that such delay is due to
extraction of files in local Temp folder before displaying its first UI. 

So can be override some event in Managed Bootstrapper to show some message
or progress bar while it is initializing itself?
Or 
How to display a progress bar while extracting packages whenever we execute
Burn exe package?

Thanks a bunch...

[WiX-users] How to set Burn.exe FileVersion and ProductVersion differently?

2015-02-13 Thread Farrukhw
Hi
Our finally generated Burn.exe file got same versions for FileVersion and
ProductVersion. However, version scheme followed in our team suggests
ProductVersion as 2015.0.

As FileVersion is coming from Version attribute of Bundle element, Is there
any way to set ProductVersion property of Burn.exe file different from
FileVersion?


 

Thanks

[WiX-users] Managed Bootstrapper: Engine.EvaluateCondition() requires separate thread?

2015-07-06 Thread Farrukhw
Hi,
In my Managed Bootstrapper, I tried to call
Engine.EvaluateCondition("MY_PROG_FOUND"); in Run() method. But it never
evaluates and said something like: "This requires a running thread." and it
never evaluates.

I'm trying to evaluate Bundle conditions in my managed bootstrapper but
still no luck. 

MY_PROG_FOUND is defined in Bundle code:



  


How can I use Engine.EvaluateCondition() in managed bootstrapper? Does this
requires to be called in a specific event, like DetectBegin()??

Any help would be really appreciated...
Thanks a bunch.

Re: [WiX-users] Managed Bootstrapper: Engine.EvaluateCondition() requires separate thread?

2015-07-08 Thread Farrukhw
Later I figured out that the separate thread is active during event calls. So
I tried it during *DetectComplete *event and it worked.   But
before that, I had to parse *BootstrapperApplicationData.xml* file to get
*WixBalCondition* elements and get the collection into an array e.g.
BalConditions[]. 

Here is my code snippet:

void BootstrapperApplication_DetectComplete(object sender,
DetectCompleteEventArgs e)
{
string balCondtionMessages = string.Empty;
bool balConditionStatus = true;
foreach (var balCondition in
bootAppData.BundleData.BalConditions)
{
if
(!model.BootstrapperApplication.Engine.EvaluateCondition(balCondition.Condition))
{
balConditionStatus = false;
if (!String.IsNullOrEmpty(balCondtionMessages))
{
balCondtionMessages = balCondtionMessages +
'\n' + "- " + balCondition.Message;
}
else
balCondtionMessages = "- " +
balCondition.Message;
}


}

if (!balConditionStatus) 
{
 SetbalConditionMsg(balCondtionMessages);
}
 }

This makes us parse for all conditions in our Bundle.wxs code, evaluate them
and display the related message in our Custom Bootstrapper UI.
