I have set all of the needed properties to have the Secure="yes" attribute. The install is a perMachine install on XP. The properties do appear in the SecureCustomProperties property in the properties list that the installer dumps at the end of the log. I also set the EnableUserControl property to 1.
Unfortunately, none of this seems to work. The properties that are set in the install ui sequence have their default values in the install execute sequence. These are set via a ComboBox or Session.Property("prop-name") in VBScripts. Running the CAs again in the execute sequence does set all of the property values correctly. There is one problem with this though. In the UI, the user can select a SQL Server machine on the network as well as the locally installed one. By default, the locally installed one is put into a combo box. The user can browse for other networked servers and the selected server from the networked servers is put into the combo box. So, if the user had selected a networked server, that is lost and what gets defaulted is the locally installed one. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Bob Arnson Sent: Friday, September 05, 2008 8:45 AM To: General discussion for Windows Installer XML toolset.
