Re: [WiX-users] Managed bootstrapper; BootstrapperApplication.Engine.Elevate()

2012-01-01 Thread Rob Mensching
That looks like a bug. There needs to be callbacks on the elevate call because all "action" (Detect, Plan, Elevate, Apply) calls are async. Additionally, there should be callbacks when elevation happens durin Apply. Note: You don't need to explicitly call Elevate() because it will happen if necess

Re: [WiX-users] Feature state for related package during major upgrades in bundle

2012-01-01 Thread Rob Mensching
If you enable feature selection (MsiPackage/@EnableFeatureSelection) then Burn should fire callbacks on feature detection and planning. Note: EnableFeatureSelection is off by default because managing feature states in the Windows Installer can be very tricky. On Tue, Dec 20, 2011 at 1:36 PM, shru

I don't know what this is: You must be using some other bootstrapper not Burn provided by the WiX toolset. I recommend following up with the vendor that provided you that bootstrapper. On Mon, Dec 19, 2011 at 9:41 AM, Wang, Miaohsi wrote: > Hello All, > > In our bootstrapper we are using a R

Re: [WiX-users] How to handle restarts in burn required by dependencies? - Please

This sounds like a bug related to Burn's relatively new code to suppress restarts while it is running. Can you please open it with this information? On Thu, Dec 15, 2011 at 12:10 PM, Roy Chastain wrote: > I just wanted to put this out there again as an unanswered question. I > am sure there is

Take a look at Burn in WiX v3.6. It handles all this stuff correctly. On Mon, Dec 19, 2011 at 1:49 PM, Jordan Dressman wrote: > > > > > I'm trying to create a bootstrapper that checks for and installs the .net > framework 4.0 client profile. (I don't want to ship the 42MB .net > installer, prefe

Re: [WiX-users] Wix bundle, turn off verbose logging for MSI

2012-01-01 Thread Rob Mensching
The BA can log messages to the bundle log file and the BA gets all the messages passed from the MSI. Thus it would be possible for your BA to write MSI error messages to the log file. On Sun, Dec 18, 2011 at 10:56 AM, Bob Arnson wrote: > On 13-Dec-11 21:25, Sunny Li wrote: > > Is there anyway to

Re: [WiX-users] Can't find source code for WixUI_InstallDir.wxs

2012-01-01 Thread Rob Mensching
The .zip file on the Source Code tab is useless because it contains only information from the "default" branch. The WiX toolset has multiple branches so the default branch contains only the root common information. On Wed, Dec 21, 2011 at 6:03 AM, Alan Goode wrote: > Which download did you get?
