Not tested it, but this should work :
<... Value="SharedMemory,TCPIP[\{]HOST=[DBSERVER][\}]" />

Hi!
I have to install Postgresql server before installing my own application,
create database and run some scripts against it. Now I'm installing

As I understand, Advertise means the feature is not installed, but Windows
will put a link for it (advertise it) as if it were installed and will
install it first time you try to use it.

First thing you need to download Bootstrapper Manifest Generator and generate
a package for postgresql (you will need an installer, for example:
postgresql-8.4.0-1-windows). For me it creates directory in MyDocuments
folder. You need to copy it to

I am using Wix 3.0 release.
I have a managed dll that has a class exposed to com. The normal
registration process for this dll is
Regasm /codebase /tlb dllname.dll
AND if on a x64 bit system
Regasm64 /codebase /tlb dllname.dll
This works when the dll is not in the GAC. If the dll is placed in

Try below code. It should work This will take care of REGASM.
You can use Assembly=".net", if you want it to be GACed also

I am currently implementing WiX into our daily builds and am using Heat.exe to

I am using WIX to create MSI package for installation. Checking the

Searching IBM's web site I found a list of ProductCodes you could search for
for DB2 v8.(whatever it was, I didn't save the link since that version is
post-support) but for DB2 v9 I didn't find any such list.
Your best bet is to query either IBM or DB2 users as to how to

When I run the installer on a 32-bit machine everything works fine. When
I run the installer on a 64-bit it prematurely ends due to some

64-bit. However, several dll
I've seen this when it's not an installer issue, it's because the .NET binaries
are AnyCpu and consequently run as native 64-bit and can't load 32-bit
dependent Dlls. When this happens during the install custom actions fail etc.
You didn't see any kind of error message when the install failed?
Why would the .NET binaries try to load any 32-bit dependent Dlls during
installation? As far as I was aware the installer was just copying those
Dlls to the proper locations.
I'll try installing via command line. Hopefully that will actually produce
some sort of error message.

If you create an advertised shortcut to a component, it links to the file
with key path set on it.
If a file is the key path for a component and is missing, Microsoft

KeyPath is where you identify to Windows Installer which resource within the
component is the identity of that component. That identity is used in
several places within Windows Installer to properly handle repairs,
