[WiX-users] Style of Event-Driven Text Control

I have a text control which gets its Text property filled by the ActionText event. How can I specify its style? If the text were static, I think I could prepend with "{\Tahoma10}" or similar. How do you do this for "dynamic" text? -- View this message in context:

[WiX-users] Where's my ActionText?

So I've got a custom progress dialog with a Text control which subscribes to the ActionText event. The idea, of course, is to give the user hope that the install will someday finish. Problem is that each bit of text only appears for a moment. However, there are long stretches within the executi

[WiX-users] Get ProductVersion of previous install

When doing an upgrade, I'd like to figure out which product version I'm upgrading. I'd then use this in my Custom Action where I log all those details. I'd like the actual Version string (1.2.5) rather than a GUID. -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Get-ProductVersion-of-pr

[WiX-users] upgrades showing multiple entries in Add/Remove Programs

I've got a program that I need to upgrade. I saw a post here, which I thought explained how to do it. However, for every "upgrade" I perform, it shows up as a new entry in the Add/Remove Programs. I've included what I think is the relevant markup. Thanks in advance for any insight.

Re: [WiX-users] How to test rollback?

Richard, Thanks for the good suggestion, but I can't for the life of me figure out how to implement what you suggest. I have the following: We have a problem In the log, I see that the ForceError CA returns 3... but

Re: [WiX-users] rollback conditions

I think so. I've added a CA which is supposed to throw an error as follows: However, it seems that it's not forcing a rollback. Any ideas? Richard-45 wrote: > > > In article <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, > larsenal <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> writes: > >>

[WiX-users] rollback conditions

I want different rollback CAs to fire based on whether an install or uninstall is occurring. What I have so far never seems to fire any rollback: ... (&PluginFeature = 3) AND NOT (!PluginFeature = 3) (&PluginFeature = 2) AND (!PluginFeature = 3) (&PluginFeature = 3) (&PluginFeature = 2) --

Re: [WiX-users] Trap which error causes rollback within CA

Sebastian, Thanks for the response. I don't have a specific error that's causing a problem. I'm looking for a generic way to handle MSI install errors. The CA is meant to try to report problems with the install. So if the install fails and tries to rollback, the idea is to have a CA that will

I'm a complete newbie when it comes to MSI and WIX. If I have a CA that's running as part of a rollback, is there a way to determine the error which triggered the rollback? -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Trap-which-error-causes-rollback-within-CA-tp15150216p15150216.html

[WiX-users] Run CA only on fail or cancel?

I have a CA which does some tracing and logging of the install. I'd like it to run at the end of the install sequence... even if the install fails or is canceled. Is there any way to do this? Also, is there a way to determine whether the install was canceled or failed? I'd like to run the CA w
