Wouldn't I need two URLs? The relative path in the CD and the web-based

You can do it in one. Put all the necessary packages on the CD and make
sure there are URLs for all packages then put the same stuff up on the web.

A couple or three notes on causes:
1. A ResolveSource action with an incorrect condition can cause this, something
that may be worth checking.
2. Any kind of update requires Windows to see if an incoming versioned file has
a higher version than the one on the system. Some people do out-of-band

I need to move the functionality of one of our extensions from candle time to
light time. Rob mentioned using the Binder File Manager extension but I can't
seem to find any documentation on it.
Any help is appreciated.

Hello,
My current situation (per user installation):
I install my files to the "AppDataFolder" directory (in a subfolder).
Now I can switch the pc's and have the installed data (saved to roaming
profile) available. But I'm not able to uninstall the files, if I'm not on the
pc where I installed
You won't be able to use the MSMs. Honestly, you might be best of
statically linking to the CRT in that scenario.
I don't recall if VS2005 CRT allowed you to co-locate the files with your
installation. That might be an option as well... depending on the license
terms.

This is exactly why Burn caches MSIs for you on the users machine.
One way to fix it would be to get the original MSI and run msiexec /fv . I
believe that would get the original MSI cached again with the new source
location then you can move forward with the upgrade.

There is a way... I just don't remember what it is. Can you open a
bug to have it documented?

Exactly. You'll notice VS 11 does exactly that.

When I worked for Textron the WiX extensions were a cause for concern also.
See, the "standard custom actions" in some of the WiX extensions and DTF
components aren't used only at compilation and build time but they are also
used at run (install) time. The build output can contain CPL licen

deja vu. We've had a very similar discussion about two monthes ago on

Dear Sirs,

The only issue that we have to sort out before switching to WiX is the CPL

I'm new to WIX. I have a custom dialog with Checkbox and I want to launch
an msi file after completion of installation if User click on the checkbox.
Currently if user click on checkbox, the msi file launch immediately but
according to desired behavior it should launch after complete installation.
In the verbose log search for "value 3". The rollback should be right after
the error. That's the one you want to investigate.
To condition CAs, you can use the PATCH and UPGRADINGPRODUCTCODE properties:
PATCH is true when a patch is being applied.
UPGRADINGPRODUCTCODE is true in the upgrading MSI
