Hi,
is there a way to prevent all SQL scripts called on product uninstall when
doing a major upgrade to new version ? I can not change the older version
MSI. I would like to solve it in the new version. I have tried to comment
out Upgrade element but it results in two products with the same nam
Hi,
Is there any way to run a SqlScript under elevated user on Vista ? I know
there is a way for a custom action but I'd like to use built-in SqlDatabase
and SqlScript elements. It seems as there is an Impersonate attribute
missing for SqlDatabase element. I use Wix version 2.

Hi,
I have to change SQL Express authentification during setup to Mixed mode,
create new user and new database for this user. It requires to restart the
server to change the mode. How can I sequence multiple SqlDatabase and
SqlScript commands and the service restart in between ? I use Wix 2.0.
Hi,
I know it is strange requirement (customers ... you know :-) but I'd like to
be sure that it is not possible to install IIS (Windows Server 2003 or 2000)
as a part of MSI setup. I know that "installing" IIS means rather "changing
the system configuration" but it might be scriptable somehow.
Hi,
I use msbuild to generate standard bootstrapper (using GenerateBootstrapper
element) which produces setup.exe and several depended folders with selected
prereqesites.
My question is whether I can run the setup.exe in a "quiet" mode with no UI

Hi,
Is there any way to display status text next to the "Status:" label just
before a CAQuietExec action is started ? It looks misleading when an action

Ok, thanks. Fortunately I managed to run "command /c net start MyService"
after InstallFinalize which is sufficient.

Is that general problem of MSI or just WiX ? Seems to be a showstopper issue
to me to continue using WiX :-/

Hi,
I have problem with automatic start of a .NET service which depends on an
assembly which is installed into the GAC.
It seems as the GAC installation is not finished when the installer is
trying to start the service (getting FileNotFoundException). Is there any
solution ?
Thanks, Petr
