I recently upgraded to WiX 3.5 (from 3.0) to solve a difxapp compatibility
problem, and now I've got different problem. Several of the localized
installers fail to build with LGHT0311 ("A string was provided with characters
that are not available in the specified database code page '1252'"). In
Thanks all. I missed the "Disallowing installation of component". That
lead to finding where I had messed up.
Thanks again!

Interesting clue. The GUID and component are being created on-the-fly by
heat, maybe there is a problem. I will look into it.

Sorry for bothering you by this way. During the interview, beside I was over

Hi,
I used to depend on wisescripts to compress files into an executable. At
runtime, the exe used to extract the files to a specified location. Is there a
way to accomplish this using any of the tools provided by WiX development
environment? Since wisescript is not supported by Altiris anymore
Because you posted a new topic to the list & someone doesn't know how to set up

It's worse when the actual list itself gets spammed by the autoreply like a

You could try specifying a version on the File element. I think that will
cause Windows Installer
to always replace the unversioned file on disk with what it thinks is a
versioned file.
