They require .Net Framework 2.0, Im testing for the framework with the
following condition

<PropertyRef Id="NETFRAMEWORK35"/>
    <Condition Message="The .NET Framework 3.5 must be installed
([NETFRAMEWORK35])">
      Installed OR NETFRAMEWORK35
    </Condition>

This test is done just within the package tags. So it checks as the
installer is launched. I made a reference to WixNetFxExtenstion so that
it can check the framework.

Is it a problem that im checking for framework 3.5? Although I didn't
think it would as 3.5 needs 2.0 to be installed too.
Could the problem be Windows Installer?


Here is the custom action declaration and binary reference.


<CustomAction Id="LaunchSettings" BinaryKey="ServiceInstall"
DllEntry="InstallService" Execute="immediate"/>
<Binary Id="ServiceInstall" SourceFile="C:\Users\User\Documents\Visual
Studio
2008\Projects\Project\InstallAService\bin\Debug\InstallAService.CA.dll"
/>


Custom actions are sequenced in the InstallExecuteSequence.

<InstallExecuteSequence>
      <!--Launch Action-->
      <Custom Action="SQLConnector" After="InstallFiles">NOT
Installed</Custom>
</InstallExecuteSequence>

What version of the framework do your custom actions require, and what
version of the framework are you testing for?

Also, how/where do you test for the framework, and at what point are
your
custom actions sequenced?

Subject: [WiX-users] WiX custom action error on windows vista or XP

Hi,

 

Im having a problem. My WiX MSI's seem to only work correctly on windows
7?

 

In my WiX installation custom c# project actions are called and
performed but it only seems to work on windows 7 machines.

I have a condition check to check that the machine has .Net Framework
3.5 but at the point in the installation when the c# custom action is
executed the application installation ends with an error. 

The installation needs to be done on any machine from Windows XP or
newer.

 

What could cause this??

 

Many thanks,

 

Alex
