[WiX-users] [Wix-user] Run Oracle script

Hi Wixers, I'm quiet new to Wix. I have a OracleXE 10g. Is there any way to run Oracle script to create/update some tables with existing Oracle user (as it should not create new user)? It seems that Wix doesn't support Oracle at the moment, right? Thanks, Ryan

[WiX-users] Wix 3.0 build failure on x64 system?

I'm on a Windows 7 x64 installation with VS2008Pro+SP1 and NAnt 0.90. I've obtained source via: hg clone https://hg01.codeplex.com/wix -branch wix30 . When running 'make ship' I'm getting some warnings-as-errors which appear to stem from mismatche

Re: [WiX-users] How to change/define the size of the main UI form

To me, that pretty much defeats the purpose of wrapping the UI up into a nice extension.  I wish  WiX had another mechanism to inherit / extend / transform / override  the Mondo experience other then ditching the reference and using the source.   Christopher Painter, Author of Deployment Enginee

Thanks Blair... Interestingly, Wix isn't complaining about as a child of include... As a test, I tweaked the little mini version of Tallow my predecessor left to take the wrapper off the top level files, so it was http://schemas.microsoft.com/wix/2003/01/wi";> ...

[WiX-users] ICE69 Warnings

Hi, I'm using Heat from 3.5 to harvest a directory structure. The installer appears to work perfectly, but generates about 1000 ICE69 warnings. Does anyone know how to easily address or ignore these? I'm trying to avoid having to ignore it globally. Thanks! ---

[WiX-users] Is VersionNT64 property supported in the MSVS bootstratpper and how to detect 32-bit vs 64-bit OS's?

Hi Everybody, I have been trying to detect whether the platform is 32-bit or 64-bit using property VersionNT64 in my MSVS 2008 bootstrapper, but cannot get it to work correctly. The detection statement is as follows: This statement is used in the product.xml of a package targeted for 32-bit

Re: [WiX-users] Is VersionNT64 property supported in the MSVS bootstratpper?

I don't know if there is any official reference covering what properties the VS bootstrapper already "knows", but the MSFT-supplied packages I have on my system seem to all use the ProcessorArchitecture property to determine platform. In the examples I've looked at it seems to have one of the follo

The bitmap appears to be set with WixUIBannerBmp This image is across a range of forms. Looking at the bitmap there is a reasonable white area on the left side with the blue logo part on the right side equating to a starting point at around 55% (from left). A range of forms have text run into it

VSTOR is a separate component from the .Net FW. VSTOR 4.0 is dependant on CLR 4.0, but they are not the same package. You would have to have a separate prereq for those components. From: rahul.ekb...@sungard.com [rahul.ekb...@sungard.com] Sent: Thursday,
