[WiX-users] Having trouble with Wix V3

I am having a couple of problems with Wix V2. They may be related. I've included my system configuration at the bottom. First thing, I cannot get Votive to create a valid Wix project file. Installation of Votive was successful (Version 5325). After installation, when I open Visual Studio I can s

Re: [WiX-users] Re Post: Msi Logging

MSI logging cannot be enabled or changed within the MSI. The MsiLogFileLocation property is to view the current log file name if any, not to change the value. So if you really want to enable the MSI log, you may have to provide the bootstrapper. Chesong Lee On Dec 18, 2007 3:03 AM, SaiTeja <[EMAI

Re: [WiX-users] Admin Check in VISTA OS

Set the MSIUSEREALADMINDETECTION property to 1 and use the AdminUser property to detect instead of the Privileged property IF you want to detect whether the invoker of the MSI is in Administrators group. http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa816403.aspx Chesong Lee On Dec 18, 2007 12:36 AM

Re: [WiX-users] Elevating msi on vista.

If "No impersonation" is set, it means the custom action function will be called in Local System context, of which token does not have Administrators group SID. I think there should be different elevation scheme with Impersonation bit set to get a token with Administrators group SID. Chesong Lee

Hello All, I am creating an installer with a file in it that takes forever to compress and add to the cab file (35 minutes). It is obviously due to the files size (400 megabytes, text though). This file also never changes. I was hoping to be able to create a cab file manually, and simply ins
