Many command line arguments get translated to MSI properties. Public
properties (properties that are ALL CAPS) can be set on the command line and
have their values available in the executing install.
What arguments are you looking for?

Hi Alex, Sorry to intrude with a different basic question. In the below
example you put this File="[#AppConfig]" how did you define that property?
It should be destination path right? I would like to know the syntax since
there will be a heirarchy of directories. and how do I concatenate the path
Hi Phil, Thanks for the response. Is there anyway I can change this order? We
dont have anything in the ServiceControl Element to make sure it starts

This is just the general MSI/.NET install issue that assemblies aren't
available in the GAC until InstallFinalize, so things like StartServices or
custom actions that depend on assemblies in the GAC fail with this kind of
error.

You seem to be doing everything correctly to get the managed CA to run as
64bit. Can you check whether it actually is? Try logging the values of
Environment.SystemDirectory or IntPtr.Size.
I haven't done much testing of 64bit managed CAs, so it is possible something
in sfxca.dll isn't hooked up
Hi,
Is there a HowTo document to get managed CAs to work as x64 on x64?
Here's what I tried, which is not working out (i.e. the managed CAs only have
access to the wow registry hive, etc)
1- Migrated to recent version of wix (3.0.4214.0)
2- Converted the managed CAs from MSIManaged
Yeah, I had to do all the registry entries myself. It's pretty simple if
you look on MSDN for the entries that need to be created.

Hi,
I've come across a problem with the DIFXAPP extension when targeting
64bit machines but I believe it is applicable to most extensions.
the DIFXAPP extention seems to only include the 32bit version of the
DIFXAPP.dll. From DIFxAppExtention.wxproj

DIFxAppDll=$(ProjectDir)x86\DIFxApp
I have a question about the XmlConfig custom action. My application is a
.NET application, and is deployed with an application.exe.config file.
Based on properties gathered during the installation, I want to update
the values in the config file. Here's the relevant portion of my config
file.
Yes, I did (the two actions actually live in the same dll), but I got it
working. I can't remember how, exactly, but it was something with the
names referenced in the attributes of the CustomAction tag. Now all I
have to do is get my XmlConfig questions answered and I'm pretty much
done.

Actually I take it back
32bit installs seem fine but 64bit installs are giving me this error..
DIFXAPP: ERROR - You need to use the 64-bit version of DIFXAPP.DLL to
install drivers on this machine.
I'll need to look into it a bit more. it may just be me.
