Hey guys, I'm running into some really strange behavior with managed Custom
Actions (C#) and DTF's compilation (?) of them. I've made a few WIX
installers before, all with C# Custom Actions, and never run into this
before, so I think I've covered all the basics and it's got me really
scratching my
I have a Feature that, when selected, kicks off a Custom Action that goes
and downloads files from a network location to the local machine. Because
these files aren't put down by the installer, they aren't taken into account
during the FileCost stage, so on the CustomizeDlg screen (provided with
W
I think you could also run the executable and grab the MSI out of the temp
folder.

That does exactly what I wanted! Thanks so much.

I'm got an installer working off a modified version of the Mondo UI (wix
3.5) that has three different features, and each feature has a custom dialog
screen that gathers information on how to configure those features. When
the installer is run in maintenance mode as a change/modify, I want the use

But given that, is there another way I can accomplish what I'm trying to do?

I've used IExpress in the past to wrap an MSI in an EXE - this lets you
specify a log file location. I've been meaning to take a look at Burn to
see if there is a better way to accomplish this - from what Rob says it
looks like the only thing to do would be have the bootstrapper app copy the
files
To add to what Nick said, here's what I have. It works in WiX 3.5:

You could include the file as a Binary, then have a custom action call it:

Alec,
As far as I know, you can't set the log file location inside WIX because
you need to tell msiexec where to write the log file to before actually
starting the MSI. You need some sort of bootstrapper that calls msiexec
with the logging options. I've used IExpress in the past, but I think I'll
I've got an installer with a couple features, and they can either all be
installed on one machine or on multiple machines. The features write values
to the registry to auto-populate properties on upgrades, however some of
the features use the same properties (database location, for example). What

In C# I have often used System.Diagnostics.Debugger.Launch(). If you have
Visual Studio installed it pops up a box asking if you want to attach or
not.

What's the error you're getting? You might also have the path to the exe
wrong in the tag.

to the server in the logs. Is there a better way to do this? Or am I
missing another piece? I was digging around the source of the other UI
templates and didn't see anything.

Hi guys,
I have an installer that's taking a password as input, and with that
password creating an encrypted connection string. I'm using XmlConfig
elements to dynamically insert the encrypted string into the application's
config file. Install is working fine but Repair is creating an encrypted
