Hello,
I am working on converting a set of MSIs, that are currently being built using
InstallShield, to WIX. One of the requirements is that the MSIs have an Error
Dialog but no other Dialogs (these MSI are run by a larger installer, so they
don't need any UI except if the install fails).
I am using the 3.0.3808.0 weekly release and building using Votive and VS2005.
I have tried building a few of the WIX examples and altering them to include
the UI I need, but I get some errors:
ICE20: Standard Dialog: 'FilesInUse' not found in Dialog table
ICE20: FatalError dialog/action not found in 'InstallUISequence' Sequence Table.
ICE20: FatalError dialog/action not found in 'AdminUISequence' Sequence Table.
ICE20: UserExit dialog/action not found in 'InstallUISequence' Sequence Table.
ICE20: UserExit dialog/action not found in 'AdminUISequence' Sequence Table.
ICE20: Exit dialog/action not found in 'InstallUISequence' Sequence Table.
ICE20: Exit dialog/action not found in 'AdminUISequence' Sequence Table.
These are the errors I am seeing. I have tried the following examples from the
wix-3.0.2925.0-sources.zip (subfolder: examples\test\ui) with these results:
AnotherUI.wxs
updated to include my custom error dialog. Stripped out extra UI. Builds
successfully, but have extra Dialogs in the installer. When installing, I get a
finish dialog. Tried removing extra dialogs and start getting Errors above.
Billboard.wxs
Tried building as is, get errors above. The Dialog Table of the MSI
created here looks similar to the dialog table of the MSI I would like to
create (ie, only one dialog in the dialog table). I suspect that I could add
missing dialog entries from AnotherUI.wxs but then I would end up in the same
place as starting with AnotherUI.wxs.
Product.wxs (product.wxl)
Attempted to build, saw errors above.
Looking at the ICE20 requirements
(http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa368944(VS.85).aspx), it looks like
I do not want to have an Authored User Interface. Is there something I can set
in my project files to change this?
Does anyone have suggestions on how I can create an MSI with only an error
dialog?
Thanks.
