Hello All,
I've a number of custom actions (CMD scripts) that run EXE files that
the MSI installs. These EXEs, in turn, require that a certain directory
(also installed by this MSI) is included in the PATH environment
variable.
These CAs never run successfully, and I think I know why: Although
wixlibs, .wixpdbs, .msm, .msi files
that were built with a previous version of the toolset? If so, and your
still seeing a problem can you please share the snippet of the log file
that has all of the error messages + 10 lines on either side (just in
case)?

Hello All,
I am experiencing the same issue, same symptoms. I manually deleted the
bin and obj folders and did a rebuild, but the result was the same.
Rob, when you say "an old table definition that is getting in and being
confused" what does that mean? How does one test for that? I opened

Hello All,
In the 'yep - back to being 100% frustrated' thread, someone mentioned
it is impossible to installtwo features exclusively from one another.
Is this true?
I would like to create an installer that is capable of installing my

I must say, you have all made my day. I've spent months banging my head

Hi Chuck,
While testing my MSI I got the same error. Specifically, I was testing
the condition I wrote on the feature that would install a virtual
directory. I tried to install it on a machine that does not have IIS
installed, and I got the same error. (This, of course, means that my

Hi Scott
I haven't tried exactly what you are describing, but I can say this:
1) Setup.exe extracts to an uniquely named folder in %TEMP%. Whatever
you have built in the setup will be extracted to there. The is MSI
placed in that same folder as well.
2) I tried to embed an MSP in a setup.exe

I see a number of examples regarding iis:Certificate, but none quite

I am trying to get my MSI to import a PFX file into the set of Trusted

Thanks again for the insights!

Hi Dan,
Did you ever receive an answer to this question? I've been having a

other than the suggestion to put the registry changes directly into the
WXS file (which has been the direction of my current investigation.)

Hi Raj,
I am merging MSXML3
Hello Davut,
What version of MSXML are you merging in? I was having a similar
difficult time with this last week, but what solved the issue was
getting a more recent service pack of MSXML and replacing the files in
my installation with those.

Thanks for the tip. I picked up the book and received it today. I'll
post my thoughts. It looks not half bad.

Hello All,
Can anyone recommend a course (classroom or online) or a good book to
get a well-rounded understanding of Windows Installer technology,
preferably using WiX? Most courses I see on the web are geared toward a
particular packaging product.
Thanks.

Hello,
Thanks for the tip, Richard. It certainly sounds like using the
COM/Registry tables would be the smart way to go. However I'm finding
myself snared in the one pitfall after another as a newcomer to WiX and
to the details of COM.
