In WIX, do we have any condition to check whether installation is going on
through GUI or Command line? If yes please let me know the condition and if
it there are no such conditions, how can we achieve this?

In the log I can see that SQL Server is shut down on the

If I understand your question, you want to increment the progress bar for
more than one custom action? You'd just need to reuse the code in those
custom actions too, either by duplicating it or putting it in some central

Do your transforms change the ProductCode or not?
The only way that two instances of a product can be installed "side-by-side"

Hello group -
I'm still a NOOB and I'm trying to start a service conditionally after
everyting is installed, and I modified the "ExitDialog" for WiX to show a
check box which sets the value for LAUNCHAPPONEXIT to 1 if the user checked
the checkbox.
This almost works, except I get this message in

installer).
