Re: [WiX-users] DTF limit on number of CA EntryPoints?

The limit of 16 is somewhat arbitrary. The way the build process works, a fixed number of entrypoints must be reserved at compile time in the sfxca.dll unmanaged stub for managed CAs. The limit can be increased by changing the sfxca.dll source code and rebuilding. The entrypoint reservations don

Windows Installer doesn't support logging the console output of command you execute through a custom action. Consider using CAQuietExec to execute your custom action. That will do two things for you: 1.) Hide the command prompt window that shows up for console applications. 2.) Capture your cons

Re: [WiX-users] Registry permission for key and subkeys

Peter -- thanks for pointing that out. Obviously with this information I could fix the behavior by patching the WiX sources and building my own binaries. But looking at the current head of the 3.5 development I see the same code there as in 3.0. So I guess it is not planned to change the behavior.

Sadly, you cant do it. Yan found the specific bit of code that causes this problem so if you are prepared to recompile wix yourself, you could make the fix. http://windows-installer-xml-wix-toolset.687559.n2.nabble.com/Registry-P ermissions-td2939332.html#a2939332 -Original Message- From:

That's exactly the problem. The permission must be inherited to keys created later by the application. I already have the code to put in a custom action but I try to use built-in functionality as much as possible. So I would prefer if there was a way to do it "natively" with Windows Installer or

Re: [WiX-users] Registry permission for key and subkeys

My colleague had this same problem. If you have a limited number of keys that are known at install time, you can add them all explicitly and set permissions on them. Since we wanted the permissions to cascade down to keys created by the application and we were short of time, we used wix's qtexec cu
