Rene,

 

Nested installs (running one MSI from within another) are not supported
by Microsoft Installer.

 

You need to use a bootstrapper. Check the archives of this mailing list
for suggestions.

 

Regards,

Richard

Subject: [WiX-users] Q: Nested Installation (CA 7, 23, 39)

 

Hi all,

 

Is there a specific reason that you cann't author a nested installation
(Custom Action 7, 23, 39) in Wix or is it just missing? I checked
Compiler.cs in the 2.0 tree and I think I shoud be able to squeeze that
in in ParseCustomActionElement but before getting my hands dirty I
wonder if there are any warnings or earlier unsuccesfull attempts.

 

Or have I overlooked another way to kick start another msi?

 

Tnx,

 

Rene
