I am trying to write an installer for a Windows Service. Depending on the deploy environment, I set a property called [ApplicationDirectory]. I have a separate component which copies all files from [ProgramFilesFolder] to [ApplicationDirectory] depending on what is dynamically set.
And then the service install from the new location [ApplicationDirectory] should happen. In the below statement how do I specify the "Service1.exe" is in the [AppDirectory] path: <ServiceInstall Id="Service1Installer" Name="Service1.exe" Type="ownProcess" Start="auto" Vital="yes" ErrorControl="normal"></ServiceInstall> Wrapping this within a File element with the source pointing to the exe from the new location will fail at compile time as [AppDirectory] will not be set then. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.net email is sponsored by: SourcForge Community SourceForge wants to tell your story. http://p.sf.net/sfu/sf-spreadtheword _______________________________________________ WiX-users mailing list WiX-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/wix-users
