Hi all,
I spent a whole day with this problem now and would appreciate any help!
To make it really easy I picked a sample COM+ Application from the MSDN (
http://code.msdn.microsoft.com/windowsdesktop/Creating-a-COM-Component-7ffbab9b)
and tried to register it in a COM+ application through WIX -
Hi!
I have an BA, contains one exepackage (third-party, signed), and on
pre-install exepackage (.net). I am trying to sign BA. it does not matter
if it is signed before or after signing the engine (detached by insignia),
I have tried every variant of signing packages and bootstrappers, but after

I don't see how a checkbox will help with my problem. I have an application
installed in folder X. I want to run the installer and change the
application to be installed to folder Y.

I feel foolish asking, because I know it's a "RTFM" moment, but my problem
is that I can't find the "M".
I see scraps of WiX input that look like:

operators if any, etc.
Can someone provide a link or at least point me in t

Thanks for the reply Carter, but I'm not using the Feature Tree. The
WixUI_InstallDir template is just Welcome -> License -> InstallDir ->
VerifyReady -> Complete.
There's only one feature to this application, I just want to "Change" the
install and move the files to a different location.
Thanks,
Great!
Thanks!

My experiences is the bootstrapper captures info on the signature or hash of
files it is to manage installation of. You have to assemble the content, up
the bootstrapper version number and re-compile every time any of the bundles
change.
This is a good thing as it ensures cohesion of release
Hi all,
I have been looking everywhere to find the answer to this question. Does
WIX Bootstrapper support the use of an xml config file or answer file to
obtain the chain of packages to install? I have seen bootstrapper.confg
files and some other information but I feel like I am going down rabbit
No. By design no. The Bundle makes a lot of security guarantees and does not
use external files to define the chain.
A custom BA could use external data (like a .config file) to decide what
packages to install from a chain, but the chain definition is built into the
Bundle.

WiX doesn't, it just builds MSIs. Windows Installer (aka: MSI) does.

In these situations you hope that the 3rd party has some docs
explaining how to share correctly (giving you component ids maybe) or
a redistributable exe or a merge module. The short answer is that
neither WiX nor Windows Installer will manage the ref counts correctly
unless they are shared correct
If it's deferred I assume it's running from the execute sequence, not the UI.
This example shows how to use the progress bar during long running
custom actions, but the interesting part for you is that
MsiProcessMessage () returns cancel if the install has been canceled.
This is a Dll call, right?
Hello,
Quick question regarding adding third party libraries to the GAC.
Naturally if our app is used we don't want the 3rd party dlls to be uninstalled
unless they are not being used. So my question is, does wix increment and
decrement the reference counts when installing and uninstalling?
I am installing an MSI on a remote machine via the WMI method
Win32_Product.Install. After invoking Install is it possible to get the
installation progress via WMI or some other remoting mechanism? I'd like to

progress ba
Hi,
You can just use signtool to sign them like an .exe. There are some issues
around this though, you will probably not have access to the 3rd party
certificate which means you will have to use your own and explain to your users
that you resigned them should they care or notice. If any of these
Hi,
I have a question about resigning MSI packages.
My scenario:
I built a .NET application to handle a whole bunch of MSI packages as a
complete product suite (platform). Those MSI packages hold some custom
