Does Wix have any limitations with regards to the number of Custom
Dialogs or Custom actions it can perform ?
My scenario is a relatively complex install where the install does some
database checks and user permissions checks
in custom actions. I have one custom action that is called from my .wxs
install script. That one custom action
performs all the database /user permission checks. It stores the
results of these checks in session.Item("a database flag") variables.
Upon the return from this custom action, the install the examines the
values of session.item -variables-. The install then knows to display
warning dialog boxes or the next configuration dialog.
All this is initially launched from a custom dialog where I list all the
SQL servers I see on the network. On this dialog I allow the choose the
sql server and then click the next button. The next button calls my
custom action.
The problem that I am seeing is that the when I click the next button on
my "ServerSelectDialog" I see no response
But in the log file that I generate using /l*v, I can see all
session.Item("a database flag") being set. I don't see any errors in
this log file either ....
<Publish Dialog="ServerSelectDialog" Control="Back" Event="NewDialog"
Value="LicenseAgreementDlg" Order ="1"></Publish>
<Publish Dialog="ServerSelectDialog" Control="Next" Event="DoAction"
Value="ValididateServerConfigAndUserPermissions" Order ="1"></Publish>
<Publish Dialog="ServerSelectDialog" Control="Next" Event="NewDialog"
Value="CurrentUserCantCreateDatabaseDialog" Order
="2"><![CDATA[DATABASEALREADYEXISTS="FALSE" AND
VALIDSERVERADDRESS="TRUE" AND HTSSQLVERSION="HTS_COMPATIBLE_VERIFIED"
AND USERCANCREATEDATABASE="FALSE"]]></Publish>
<Publish Dialog="ServerSelectDialog" Control="Next" Event="NewDialog"
Value="DatabaseUserAndServerPortDialog" Order
="3"><![CDATA[DATABASEALREADYEXISTS="FALSE" AND
VALIDSERVERADDRESS="TRUE" AND HTSSQLVERSION="HTS_COMPATIBLE_VERIFIED"
AND USERCANCREATEDATABASE="TRUE"]]></Publish>
<Publish Dialog="ServerSelectDialog" Control="Next" Event="NewDialog"
Value="DatabaseVersionWarningDialog" Order
="4"><![CDATA[VALIDSERVERADDRESS="FALSE" OR
HTSSQLVERSION="HTS_COMPATIBLE_UNKNOWN"]]></Publish>
<Publish Dialog="ServerSelectDialog" Control="Next" Event="NewDialog"
Value="DatabaseAlreadyExistsDialog" Order
="5"><![CDATA[DATABASEALREADYEXISTS="TRUE" AND
HTSSQLVERSION="HTS_COMPATIBLE_VERIFIED" AND
VALIDSERVERADDRESS="TRUE"]]></Publish>
<Publish Dialog="ServerSelectDialog" Control="Cancel"
Event="SpawnDialog" Value="CancelDlg" Order ="1"></Publish>
I'll be looking at this but can anyone see from first glance why I'm
getting this behavior ?
