The only way I have found thus far to quietly run a CustomAction with admin
privileges given to the installer is using this (taken from
http://wix.sourceforge.net/manual-wix3/qtexec.htm):
<CustomAction Id="QtExecDeferredExampleWithProperty_Cmd"
Property="QtExecDeferredExampleWithProperty"
Value=""[#MyExecutable.exe]"" Execute="immediate"/>
<CustomAction Id="QtExecDeferredExampleWithProperty" BinaryKey="WixCA"
DllEntry="CAQuietExec"
Execute="deferred" Return="check" Impersonate="no"/>
.
.
.
<InstallExecuteSequence>
<Custom Action="QtExecDeferredExampleWithProperty_Cmd"
After="CostFinalize"/>
<Custom Action="QtExecDeferredExampleWithProperty"
After="TheActionYouWantItAfter"/>
</InstallExecuteSequence>
However, I want to run such a CA asynchronously, but setting
Return="asyncNoWait" returns a candle/light error requiring the ExeCommand
argument be set, and if I do that, then it complains further:
C:\MyClientPackage_v1.0.0.wxs(553) : error CNDL0023 : The
CustomAction/@DllEntry attribute cannot coexist with a previously specified
attribute on this element. The CustomAction element may only have one of the
following target attributes specified at a time: DllEntry, Error, ExeCommand,
JScriptCall, Script, Value, or VBScriptCall.
So this doesn't seem to be able to work. Any ideas how else we can quietly
execute CA with admin privileges asynchronously?
