I actually want to run it during if it isn't installed, but I can't seem to do 
that.

Why do you want to run it after? Anyway, you might look into creating a 
bootstrapper and using that to tie the two installers together.

Hi-



I am having difficulty forcing an installation of vjredist.exe (Microsoft 
Visual J# .NET 2.0 Redistributable package) with my MSI. Currently, its 
checking to see if the registry entry is there, then it calls it for a silent 
install. I'm getting an error telling me that I already have a windows 
installer package running (which is true because WiX is running it).



Question: I can strip the MSI out from the EXE, but there isn't a way to run it 
from command line. Is there a way I can specify an option to run the 
vjredist.exe AFTER my WiX MSI is done?



Is there a way to fake Windows Installer so it will allow the install of the 
second MSI?



Thanks for any help!
