[WiX-users] WiX Burn - Conditionally install MSI if it exists and not complain if it doesn't exist

Hi, We have 3 flavours of our product and thus 3 separate msi's - ProductA.msi, ProductB.msi & ProductC.msi and a bootstrapper exe that installs various common pre-requisites for all the flavours of the product. At the moment, we ship a copy of the bootstrapper and one of the msi to our customers

Re: [WiX-users] How to bypass UAC prompt?

The only way to disable UAC is to do in the system parameters which requires a reboot of the system to take effect. The best way to deal with this is to use a bootstrap EXE that handles the prompt upfront and then launches the MSI. Any changes to IIS that touch the master control file require e

[WiX-users] Package detected as absent if previously updated

Hi! I'm developing a managed bootstrapper application, and have run into a peculiar problem. I'm testing the following scenario for a simple single-package bundle: * Install version 1.0 * Upgrade to version 1.1 * Run the version 1.1 installer again When doing this, the package is detected as absen

Re: [WiX-users] Build order problems Votive vs MSBuild

I'm sure there is a way to make PreBuildEvent or BeforeBuild work, but I gave up trying to figure it out. I ended up making a couple of empty "build sync" projects that have post build steps that do the same as my old prebuild steps. The wix projects reference one or more of the sync projects. I

Re: [WiX-users] Single patch for 2 MSI

You can make a patch to update both A -> C and B -> C but I don't think you can selectively make it also update A to B. C is the what you specific in the UpgradeImage section of your Patch Family (the 'destination'). A & B should be specified as TargetImages (the 'source'). e.g.

Re: [WiX-users] Package detected as absent if previously updated

Something doesn't compute there. Can you be a bit more specific about what upgrade in step 2 means? Also, does OnDetectRelatedPackage provide useful info? ___ FireGiant | Dedicated support for the WiX toolset | http://www.firegiant

[WiX-users] Cannot execute the ICommand InstallCommand in C# code behind

I have a WIX installer custom BA. In it I have 2 buttons. In the click event handlers I set some variables so I can only determine which features of the product I need to install. When I execute the InstallCommand it doesn't start the install, instead the log says canceling... My code is... this.

Re: [WiX-users] Package detected as absent if previously updated

Hi, What I mean is that I have a newer version of the bundle, which installs the new version and removes the old version. Does that answer the question? It seems DetectRelatedPackage does not fire, and neither does DetectRelatedBundle (The log covered the entire detect phase). I'll do some more

Re: [WiX-users] Package detected as absent if previously updated

Hm, I noticed I there were warnings when compiling the msi file, the Product/@Id was not set to "*", and the Package/@Id was set. When I set product id to "*" and removed package id, this behaviour seems to go away. Could this be the actual cause, or is this an unrelated "bad thing", and it jus

If Product/@Id was not changing you were not major upgrading your packages. ___ FireGiant | Dedicated support for the WiX toolset | http://www.firegiant.com/ -Original Message- From: Carl Pettersson [mailto:carl.petters...@

In the wix toolset source download, at src\tools\WixTasks\wix200x.targets , in browsing through that file (and other similar .targets files) it lists the various MSBuild Targets which can be "redefined". So when I was trying to understand the wix build process I created a simple EndPointsSequenceT
