I want to install files (aspx, asmx, dll) to an existing web site. This is
for internal use only, so I want the installer to take care of a couple
things for me:

Thanks again, Chris.
I agree, having that async CA and the other CA communicating via RPC just
for the log messages to way overkill. It'll probably be lesser work
re-writing the entire UI.
My only concern is though, that I'll have to now look at bootstrapping .NET

What do you have underneath your element? Generally you put another
element in to make the files go where you want, as in this example
from "Authoring your first .wxs file" in the wix help:
Some people have suggested running an async CA prior to the dialog chain and
then using an RPC mechanism to pass messages to it for logging and instructing
it to shut down.
Seems like overkill to me to get around an MSI limitation but if it's really
important to you, it can be done. Of course
Thanks Chris!
So is there no known way to log messages from a custom action invoked via
PushButton-DoAction event?

I'm ashamedly naive about a fairly core issue with WiX. Maybe you guys can
clear this up for me. As I write my installer I've been thinking of the
"source" files as those that I am installing, and the "target" as where they
will be on the machine on which the install is being run.
So right away I'

Only because XSLT is a PITA to debug. Obviously we want the full v3
manual up there too so it's better to not preclude new doc from being on
the site.

While that is true for 3.0 and 3.5, that might not necessarily be true
for "4.0".
For example, if they have 2.0 they do not necessarily have 1.1 or 1.0,
as they were both different CLR versions.
The reason it is true for 3.0 and 3.5 is because they are library
extensions and run on the same CLR ver
Right. A user can't just install .NET 3.5 as the installer will automatically
install .NET 2.0 and 3.0 as well. If your installer does a check for .NET 2.0
via the reg key (or using the NetFxExtension that comes with WiX), the check
will pass if the user has "only" installed .NET 3.5 since the o
I think that's what he said. It will detect .Net 2.0 or greater, so 2.0,
3.0, 3.5 and 4.x will be covered as any future .Net installation is
backwards compatible and has the previous runtimes installed too.

I actually thought about your suggestion. The problem is that we will have to
search the registry key of each version of .NET and I'm trying to find a
general solution that will work for all versions of .NET 2.0 and higher, so
that we will not have to change the setup code when .NET version 4.0

I've created a few custom actions in C# using your wonderful DTF framework.
So far, I found a couple of issues. One of them seems to be a showstopper -

Hi,
I want to be able to detect if .NET framework 2.0 or higher is installed.
I've found how I can look for the .NET framework 2.0 in wix:

The problem with my current implementation is that it looks for the registry
key of v2.0, while the setup that I crea
