My second installer is not MSI installer, it is old VisualBasic Installer
that can run parallely with my MSI.
So the sollution is not in that.

John, thanks for reply.
The objective for asking for a tutorial wasn't the starting point and
that it isn't so difficult. I am more interested in exploring all the
features of Votive, especially the harvesting feature. That's the point
where I have found problems.

Thank you, for this great hint. I guess it was my mistake to ignore
CustomActions because I did not understand how broad custom actions can
be used. I really thought custom actions mean I write custom, error
prone code and everything is bad ;-).
Thanks again,

I am trying to create a "patch" install (.msp). It has been a learning
struggle, but I got to the point where the msp install updates some files
(if I use an 'a' flag on reinstallmode). However, in the original wix
project I use paraffin to create a fragment for a database update component.

Yeah, brain fart on tying the custom action to the Custom Id.

Hi,
I have a Wix project, that should create a installer that can be
installed either with UI or without UI. So I want to make sure that a
property gets set either from the command line or the UI otherwise the
installer should abort with a message like "Property PROPRERTYNAME must
be set", sim
Okay, I see that the platform SDK installs it in the bin directory. Since
there's nothing in the installer UI that specifically mentions the Installer
SDK, I didn't think it was there.
I'm sorry for the OT message.

It's pretty easy.
Install the package, you should see a new project type "tab" that includes
setup projects, merge modules and libraries. What you end up with is a shell
Xml file that works just like it would without Votive.
You can add a project reference and then use something like this:

And most Windows Installer paths end with a \ too, in the path properties.

Unless they've been worked out in the Beta, there can be build order issues
when running 3.6 builds on build agents. I haven't had an opportunity to test
3.6 recently (too close to the end of the release cycle) to know if it's fixed
yet.

I use Votive with Sp1 no problems. In fact, having migrated from 3.5 a few
months ago, I think 3.6 is more stable.

I use Votive in WiX v3.5 with VS2010 SP1 without any issues. I would assume
Votive in WiX v3.6 follows suit. No idea about Burn, haven't had time to look
into using it yet.

Running an installer from within an installer is not supported. The msiexec
processes that are already running are going to block the "inner" install. To
achieve the effect of what you want, you'll need to use a chaining bootstrapper
like burn, DotNetInstaller, or something similar.

Is Wix, Burn and Votive 3.6 compatible with the VS2010 service pack? I don't
want to upgrade to service pack 1 if there is a problem.

I've created a WIX project in my solution that works as expected,

Now I've added the C++ runtime as a merge module, and now the WIX
