It should come up as unsigned in the UAC prompt, if you have that disabled you won't see anything. You can usually still install it. -Original Message- From: Ivo Beltchev [mailto:i...@ibeltchev.com] Sent: 07 July 2013 23:34 To: wix-users@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: [WiX-users] Authenti

Re: [WiX-users] Adding language transform .mst's to Burn Bundle Chain?

Okay I have not yet figured this out. I have tried placing the calling of my MsiPackage into a separate Fragment file and add a property definition to default language and then conditioned custom actions for the supportted languages, but it looks like Burn completely ignores this default property a

Re: [WiX-users] Adding language transform .mst's to Burn Bundle Chain?

Burn and its existing WixStdBA don't support this out of the box today. I see two choices for you. The first is to have a single msi with no transforms and either use multiple components with conditions on the localized shortcuts or utilize a CA at runtime to inject the localized shortcuts into

Re: [WiX-users] PatchCertificates element and Insignia.exe

Hi Jacob, signing is indeed working without any problem. But if you have a element in your MSI, signing the MSI with insignia (actually it is done by an MSbuild target) will change the included certificates in the MsiDigitalCertificate table. The following snipped (e.g. in product.wxs) will crea

Does it work if you remove the PatchCertificates elements? I.e. is insignia hand holding you and doing everything so you do not need to? -Original Message- From: Georg von Kries [mailto:g...@creativbox.net] Sent: 08 July 2013 15:54 To: 'General discussion for Windows Installer XML tool

Hi David, Looking at the Inscribe.cs source code, there is no entry added to the MsiPatchCertificate table. So no, it's not doing everything for me. Kind regards, Georg von Kries -Ursprüngliche Nachricht- Von: David Watson [mailto:dwat...@sdl.com] Gesendet: Montag, 8. Juli 2013 17:24

Re: [WiX-users] Authenticode signatures

I think the Shell caches aggressively. Try restarting and see if the Shell still tells you it's signed. On Mon, Jul 8, 2013 at 4:13 AM, David Watson wrote: > It should come up as unsigned in the UAC prompt, if you have that disabled > you won't see anything. You can usually still install it. >

I stand corrected, my testing was done prior to signing my external CABS. This is in fact a bug as far as I can tell. Specifically in the 3.8 branch, in the src/wix/Inscriber.cs InscribeDatabase @~ 217, we are blindly creating a new table instead of merging the table. I believe the proper a

There should not be a problem with Product Codes as I am using the same .msi in both MsiPackage entries, not multiple msi's that are language specific. I have again just the one .msi and the language .mst's files. So if one of the supported languages exists it will trigger the first MsiPackage ID
