The list server generally strips attachments. Before Windows Installer has finished parsing the MSI database file to determine what language it is in, it uses the user/system locale to show the first messages. One of the core wix-team members blogged about that (it seems like it was 3-4 years ago?) describing the process (I forget which one and I would have to research it to provide the link).
Once it gets going, does it show the messages in the correct language? Or does it continue with the "wrong" language? -----Original Message----- From: Lian Jiang [mailto:lji...@microsoft.com] Sent: Tuesday, September 15, 2009 1:00 PM To: General discussion for Windows Installer XML toolset. Subject: [WiX-users] launching page localization Hi, I localized all strings used in my installer UI. The installer is a MUI based msi which means the same MSI can work on different locale machines and shows the strings in the corresponding locale. All dialogs works fine except that the launching page (the verify first dialog showing something like "installation starts ...") shows strings incorrectly. For example, I saw it shows other language when running on an en-us machine and it shows English when running on other locales machine. The launching page shown in en-us locale machine is attached. Thanks for any clue. Thanks Lian ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Come build with us!
