[WiX-users] WIX 3.0 hates my mergefiles
Hey I have the following Merge entries inside the root tag these are all added to a feature via the tag. On Wix2.0 this builds just fine, on WIX 3.0/Votive 3.0 i get the following errors: Error34ICE27: Action: 'DuplicateFiles' in InstallExecuteSequence table must come after the 'InstallFiles' action.light.exe01 Lingstaller Error75ICE32: Possible Mis-Aligned Foreign Keysinstaller.msi 01installer Error76ICE32: Possible Mis-Aligned Foreign Keysinstaller.msi 01installer This makes me think the fault actually lies in the Mergefiles themselves, which I deem odd since they are from Microsoft. Any takers? - T - This SF.net email is sponsored by DB2 Express Download DB2 Express C - the FREE version of DB2 express and take control of your XML. No limits. Just data.

[WiX-users] Automating MSI merge into bootstrapper?
Hi What would be a nice way to have the MSI merged into the bootstrapper unifying it into just one setup.exe file and nothing more? Can this be done with a buildproject just like creating the bootstrapper? - Thomas - This SF.net email is sponsored by DB2 Express Download DB2 Express C - the FREE version of DB2 express and take control of your XML.

[WiX-users] Unmanaged install/admin deployment
Hey It seems we want to enable administrators to deploy our software via simple commandline (eg setup -user= pass= key=). How can you set a WIX/MSI package to skip GUI and just use the passed parameters as properties? - T - This SF.net email is sponsored by DB2 Express Download DB2 Express C - the FREE version of DB2 express and take control of your XML.

[WiX-users] Are there any size restrictions?
Does MSI packages have any size restriction? On one of our Virtual boxes our installer refuses to run if I add another 50 Mb .data file to the MSI package making it 140Mb instead of 90. It just gives a (loosely translated) "Cannot open the installationpackage. Contact the distributor to confirm this is a valid Windows Installer package". This happens on the VM with a clean WinXP SP2 install (no .NET 2.0 etc). I first thought it was the mergemodules since removing them fixed it, but i later found removing any of the larger (30+ Meg files) made it run (taking the MSI package down to around 100 Mb instead of upto 140ish). Does Windows Installer version matter for this maybe? -T - This SF.net email is sponsored by DB2 Express Download DB2 Express C - the FREE version of DB2 express and take control of your XML.

[WiX-users] Uninstall event?
If I want to call a custom event right before files are deleted, what event would I chain it before? How to detect if it's an uninstall etc. (Our application needs to be called with a switch on uninstall) -T - This SF.net email is sponsored by DB2 Express Download DB2 Express C - the FREE version of DB2 express and take control of your XML.

[WiX-users] Changing property or control-property from Custom action/DLL
Hey in one of our dialogs we are showing the status of installed dependencies and also want to put in a state-icon, thing is the icon is bound as following: Now I can't seem to change that with a MsiSetProperty (according to logs it deletes the property?). I also thought I might just have 2 bitmaps overlapping then setting 1 to hidden and the other not but how can I set a controls hidden property from a DLL? (An event could possibly be used aswell).

[WiX-users] CustomAction Feedback and shortcut order
Hi is there some nice way to create feedback on a custom action like a CD-Key check? I tried creating a dialog to show but launching that if the CDkey entered was wrong causes the user-registration dialog to close (Using NewDialog). I also tried setting a label to [CDKErrorMessage] and setting CDKErrorMessage to an errormessage, but that label won't update before I go back to previous dialog and to the User-reg dialog again. Anyway to force the dialog to update? The other issue I'm having is shortcuts on the startmenu. Is there any way to put them in a specific order instead of sorted by name?

[WiX-users] Event execution install/Uninstall
I have some events i need to be called appropriately, how can I make an event be called only after an install and how can I make an event be called only before files are removed (even from GAC) on an uninstall (Need to execute my application after install and need to execute it before files are removed/cleared from GAC). I tried using InstallFinalize but that event seems to be called even on uninstall and I couldn't use conditions either? As in Return="asyncWait">INSTALLED or simular.

[WiX-users] Add/remove programs buttons
When looking at add/remove programs I see some apps have a modify and remove, some have "modify/remove" and some have only remove. How can I set our installation to only have a "remove" button?
