Re: [WiX-users] Is there a walkthrough that works for installingdrivers in an MSI, wix v 3 (5120)?

So, bug submitted. We're going to try the vs build environment thing anyway, because I need this to work. On Fri, Jul 31, 2009 at 3:51 PM, Blair wrote: > The core toolset and the extensions don’t depend on VS (unlike building > native C++) and are supposed to run in a pure msbuild environment. >

Even on XP the exe will have been launched from a different desktop. Try passing MB_SERVICE_NOTIFICATION to your messagebox (won't work on Vista). -Original Message- From: achandrapano [mailto:achan...@panologic.com] Sent: Friday, July 31, 2009 2:15 PM To: wix-users@lists.sourceforge.net

[WiX-users] How to get consistent behavior from ARPxxxx properties

Hi I never set any of the ARPxxx properties in my installer code. I noticed that by default, the entry for my application under HKLM\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\{guid} always contains an entry for NoModify set to 0x0001. On Vista and W2K8 I get both Repair/Remove options in ARP

Re: [WiX-users] Is there a walkthrough that works for installingdrivers in an MSI, wix v 3 (5120)?

I guess so. By the way, the build server does not have visual studio installed, I'm just running directly off of msbuild via the compiler that comes with .NET. I don't know if that functionatlity is supported; I'm going to be installing visual studio on the build server later today, just to test

I don't know. Walking the codepath, I don't see how you can build without errors without generating that table. Open a bug? -Original Message- From: Mark Roden [mailto:mmro...@gmail.com] Sent: Friday, July 31, 2009 6:36 AM To: General discussion for Windows Installer XML toolset. Subject

Re: [WiX-users] MSI Log Error 1722

Well it looks like this is happening during the generatescript portion. Is the EXE actually running at this stage? To confirm this I put MessageBox inside my Exe right when it enters main() and it does not show. Also event viewer does not show any SxS errors. I am on windows xp. Blair-2 wrote:

Re: [WiX-users] MSI Log Error 1722

It usually means your exe returned a non-zero return code (either itself or the OS launcher). Any/all additional diagnostics have to come from your EXE itself. Depending on your OS, that EXE may not be launched on any interactive desktop (since it is running in-script), so you may not be able to e

Re: [WiX-users] strategy for moving/migrating to WIX from other installer

This would be considered a Major Upgrade. If the old MSI has a UpgradeCode property, you should strongly consider keeping that same as your UpgradeCode. In that case, simply code the Upgrade table (using the Upgrade and UpgradeVersion elements) as advised for major upgrades. I would recommend NOT s

In your .xsd file, what is your targetNamespace value? (exactly, case matters). It would be easier to help you if you supply the xs:schema element (we don't need the children) and enough of the test.wxs file to see what you called. -Original Message- From: Konstantin Vlasenko [mailto:kons

Take a peek at CurrentSession.GetMode, passing it what you're interested in detecting. InstallRunMode.Scheduled I believe is 'deferred', InstallRunMode.Commit is commit, etc... For immediate I use InstallRunMode.Operations || InstallRunMode.Maintenance. -Original Message- From: Tom Cr
