Hello, I have a setup project that must run an .exe command-line custom action before an installed service is started.
The problem is, the custom action will throw an error when placed in install actions sequence before "Start Services" or "Install Services." The custom action runs fine if placed after "InstallFinalize," but then it's late because the service in question has already started. Any ideas on the best way to go? Could "StartServices" possibly be pushed after "InstallFinalize" in the sequence without messing things up? I tried for quite a while to create a c++ custom action, but have little C++/COM expertise and had too much trouble getting it going in a reasonable period of time. The .exe I finally made is written in C#. Aside from this issue I'm a huge fan of WiX and am glad I avoided the other "options." Thanks so much, Dan ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc. Still grepping through log files to find problems? Stop.
