[WiX-users] SQL Create Function Script

We are using WiX to create an installation for our application.  On install, we are executing some SQL scripts (to create a database and put in sample data) and it has been working great.  Recently, we started using functions with our database and now we need to run a script that creates fu

Well, I'm out of ideas. Here's some of the things I've tried... 1) Made sure that I was running the installer as administrator. 2) Made sure that the file was in DOS/Windows format by converting the file. Tried several variations of this including passing it through a perl script and cutting/pas

Yeah, I miscopied it. Our resident Windows guy knew the trick about converting to Hex (I'm mostly a Linux/Java guy, so I was totally unaware of that.). The code in hex is 0x8007006E. He thought it might be two processes trying to access the file at the same time, but I'll check up on the

You're missing a digit from that error number. It should have ten digits to map to an error HRESULT. I normally convert large negative numbers back to hex, then if the upper WORD is 0x8007, I know it's a Win32 error code mapped into an HRESULT (FACILITY_WIN32 is 7). The error return of XmlLoadDocum

2006-10-07 Thread Mike Dimmick
Finalizers always run on the single dedicated finalizer thread, so they will never ever run on the correct thread to call MsiCloseHandle. This problem is likely not occurring frequently because there’s probably not enough garbage generated by light.exe to actually cause GC to occur and the
