Hi,
I am using the WiX 3.0 and using the *WixSqlExtension *for creating the DB
and running a script file on this DB.
While installing the product i am getting the error as:
InstallSqlData: Error 0x8007000e: failed to read from stream
InstallSqlData: Error 0x8007000e: failed to read SqlS
Hi,
I think that you need to publish the property on the dialog where you have the
form
DeviceType = "1"
I had a similar problem, and this is how I've fixed it.

I need to reference the output of a WCF service project. When I add the
reference to the WiX project it appears as a reference called
"MyService(MyService\MyService)". I cannot find a way to construct the var
pre-processor reference to reference this project. Is there a way to do this?
Thanks
I run into this problem sometimes. I usually resolve it by changing the
name of the reference in the .wixproj file to something alphanumeric
(i.e.: MyService).
For example, change
MyService (MyService\MyService)
{DA5A3B41-F7D3-419b-A970-C28D6C0A3A4A}

Hmm. Must be a big that we missed before shipping. Would you mind opening a
bug and providing as much information as possible. The MSI that reproduces
the problem would be ideal (although I appreciate it might not be possible
to send along).
Also, I hope there is a stack trace dumped with that err
Uhh, yeah, I don't think we've ever tested a script that big. That is
E_OUTOFMEMORY and we have some known "non-ideal" memory usage issues in the
SqlExtension today. You're likely hitting that.
Hopefully, you can split the script into smaller chunks.

I want to set a registry value to a DWORD of 1, unless a optional
parameter of BAR=1 is specified when the installer runs. I've tried
variations on what's listed below, but can't get it to work (the listing
below doesn't work because I'm trying to use an expression in the
SetProperty element).
Please disregard; I found a way to do what I need to do.

The Windows Installer does not let you conditionally install Resources
(files, registry keys, shortcuts, etc). Instead, you must add a Condition to
the Component itself. See the Component/Condition element.

1. If this is not supported initially, it'll be something we should add.
2. Yes, that is the purpose of Burn.
The drops of Burn right now are very raw and require lots to be done on the
consumer side. You need to create a custom UX DLL that drives the engine
(see the wix\src\Setup\UX directory f
More specifically, an undefined Property (a Property with no value or "") is
FALSE. All other values for a Property is TRUE.
Also, when debugging Property values, generate a verbose log file and follow
the changes to the Property. That usually helps me track down the issue.

Is this feature broken? I'm running the 3.0 RTM build of wix.

Yep
I was playing with the VsExtension and I noticed that when I use a PropertyRef
that in the appsearch table it modularizes the property but in the property
table it creates a securecustomproperties property that references the property
but it is not modularized.
Does that seem correct?
1. Actually it is supported. Burn supports runtime "variables" (roughly
equivalent to a property in the MSI world), and one of the built-in ones is
VersionNT64, that behaves the same as the namesake property in MSI.
Rob is correct, though, that Burn has quite some way left to go before it will
DeviceType is a "private" property, not a "public" property. Private
properties cannot be shared between the UI sequence and the execution
sequence. As a result, the property in the execution sequence starts out and
only ever gets its value from the Property table.
If you intend to use the propert
That would appear to me to be a bug. Please file one with a simple repro.

Hi All,
Is there any for refreshing the list box values on a dialog box on a button

Hi:
Can head extract the registration information fom a dll com server, if
yes what is the command line?
Secondly, I'm just creating an installation that doesn't have any
directories of it's own, it places files in already existing directories.
Will this fail ice validation?

Hi:
I'm writing an install, which compiles files onthe fly. I need to remove
the source files whilst leaving the compiled binary.
What is the best way of doing this soothe source file is used at install
time butnot left on the system.
Cheers
Sean.

Hey Sean,
Heat should extract the registry keys by default. Are you seeing something
different?
If you use a directory or registry search and use that public (all CAPS)
property as one of your directory Ids it should be ok.
Hope that helps,
