Re: [WiX-users] Uniting Burn and WiX(MSI) projects

No. You'd have to hack up the wix MSBuild targets *significantly* to get there. Not at all designed to work that way. _ Short replies here. Complete answers over there: http://www.firegiant.com/ -Original Message- From: ronif [

Re: [WiX-users] Two Mutually Exclusive Products

You are correct: ProductSearch does have an UpgradeCode too, I am using wix 3.8 and the documentation of 3.8 doesn't make reference to the UpgradeCode. I will try using 3.9. I will also investigate (learn) what you mean by implementing code in the ba (???) for the OnDetect handlers. Thanks for y

Re: [WiX-users] Uniting Burn and WiX(MSI) projects

I suspect that you might be able to create a MSBuild targets file that would do that. The wix source tree uses MSBuild targets files (.proj) which reference groups of projects. Each project still has a project file (.proj or .wixproj), which is unique to the type of project being output (by setti

Re: [WiX-users] Two Mutually Exclusive Products

I'm a little confused by the comment about ProductSearch, sorry. - ProductSearch: requires a product code which I cannot use The wix:ProductSearch for use in authoring an MSI takes ProductSearch/@UpgradeCode as the input. The util:ProductSearch for use in a bundle takes either a ProductCode or a

Re: [WiX-users] Strange behavior of SetupAPI function : InstallHInfSection

I would also enable MSI extra debug logging and evaluate the msi logs, typically in %temp%. My first guess, and it is only a guess (without specific data from the log) is that on a x64 system, if the msi CA tried to launch a 32 bit version of the api it would fail. But again this is only one poss

Re: [WiX-users] Bootstrapper doesn't run MSI package

You need to evaluate the verbose log (or past to a post relevant parts for others to help). It is typically in your %temp% folder, with obvious name based on your product name. There will be a log for the bootstrapper which contains the 'plan' and for each msi, if launched. -- View this messag
