[WiX-users] Installed software listed in SNMP 'hrSWInstalled' applications
I've got some MSI software packages created with WiX that I install on Windows 7 systems with group policy. I'm using the linux 'snmpwalk' app to query each Windows PC to list the 'hrSWInstalled' applications. I'm seeing some applications listed in the output (mostly MS applications, but some third party as well), but none of the applications I've installed with my installers. Does anyone know what the trick is to get installed applications to show up in the SNMP output? this may have nothing to do with WiX, but I just have no idea. thanks! -- Doing More with Less: The Next Generation Virtual Desktop What are the key obstacles that have prevented many mid-market businesses from deploying virtual desktops?

Re: [WiX-users] Installed software listed in SNMP 'hrSWInstalled' applications
After some playing with the registry I found that applications that create registry entries here show up in the hrSWInstalled output HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall My installer doesn't create that key. I don't know whether it should or not... ____ From: "wigyxz-p...@yahoo.com" To: "wix-users@lists.sourceforge.net" Sent: Wednesday, September 14, 2011 8:54 PM Subject: [WiX-users] Installed software listed in SNMP 'hrSWInstalled' applications I've got some MSI software packages created with WiX that I install on Windows 7 systems with group policy.

[WiX-users] Creating HKLM\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall
I would like for my wix-generated install to create the various registry
entries under HKLM\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\{Product-code}
MSDN seems to indicate that these keys are updated by the Windows Installer
service (see link below), but my installs created with Wix don't seem to create
those entries.
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/aa372105%28v=vs.85%29.aspx
Is there some property/setting in my wxs file that I need to add, or do I need
to manually create those registry keys myself?
thanks!

Re: [WiX-users] Creating HKLM\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall
Turns out my problem was that the key was being created, but under the
HKLM\Software\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall key so I
didn't see where it went.
The installer was built and installed on Windows 7 64 bit, but I hadn't set the
Platform='x64' value in my section. Once I fixed that, the
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall key is being created
as I wanted.
thanks!
