This works. Thank you.
Is there a way to suppress error message completely?

Hello,
I have a problem with PathEdit and browse controls.
When user enters very long string into PathEdit dialog installer displays
error dialog with error code 2893,
which means text was too long and was truncated by a control.

Sorry,
I can't provide source of custom action, it's company property. You can use
combination of localle and time zone settings. Of course user is free to
set it to anything. There is no guarantee.
I wrote simple wix script in other post if it will be of any help.

Actually, I didn't even have to write custom action. Just some WiX script.
Something like this:

(SystemLanguageID=4105)
NOT ((SystemLanguageID=1033
I wrote custom action in a DLL which identifies country (specifically North
America or Europe) and saves result in a WiX property (it uses MSI API to
store property into the table). Then I use this property in component
conditions

We getting the same error on one of the PCs, but not on others.
It looks like this is some generic COM or DCOM error. I wasn't able find out
what is causing it.
Looks like some particular configuration of the PC leads to this.

This is probably more Windows Installer question than a WiX specific.
I have an install with abot 3 GB of files. All it does is copying files and
creating shortcuts.
MSI file has tranforms for several languages, this localization affects only

I can't - company policy.
I don't think such slow speed can be explained by antivirus software, but
who knows.

Hello,
I have several thousand files in the installation and linking stage is very
slow. It takes more than an hour per language.
I tried to use -ss option with no effect. Cabinet creation is not the
reason, since I have the same slow times for uncompressed files.

When you use transforms (MST) approach make sure that your base package has
a neutral culture settings,
otherwise you will see some weird mixture of languages

time I would've spent writing the same functionality using C.

work?

That's what I did, but there are some restrictions on where user can place
shortcuts.
I used custom action to validate path, but it is still not ideal solution.
It looks like a such common task, I wonder why WiX does not provide
specialized dialog for that.
For example, InstallShield has such
I ended up doing appriximately the same. I modified slightly BrowseDlg with
custom action written in C,

enough for production software.
I saw Windows Installer setups where it was done quite nicely. I just wonder
how?

Yes, it does work now.

Hello,
I'm building installation with multiple language support and encountered a
problem.
I'm following WiX tutorial:
1. Build istallation for each language separately
2. Take first language as a base ant create tranforms for all other
languages:
msitran.exe -g install_de-de.msi ins
This was my suspicion, I tried with CD simulation software with the same
result.
Maybe I need to try with real CD.
Do I have to define VolumeLabel attribute for MediaTag in this case or it's
optional?
Thanks a lot
