The thing that confuses me at the moment is that the only thing I need to translate are the account names I need to pass to ServiceInstall, and WiX provides those translations via the property WIX_ACCOUNT_LOCALSERVICE, so the only thing written into the MSI installService table is the literal text [WIX_ACCOUNT_LOCALSERVICE]
I've also checked that the translation in the msi log file is the same as I get from this bit of code var account = new SecurityIdentifier(WellKnownSidType.LocalServiceSid, null).Translate(typeof(NTAccount)).Value The thing that is really confounding me at the moment is that the translation for WIX_ACCOUNT_LOCALSYSTEM is Property(C): WIX_ACCOUNT_LOCALSYSTEM = ZARZĄDZANIE NT\SYSTEM And that works! Can't see why the following fails Property(C): WIX_ACCOUNT_LOCALSERVICE = ZARZĄDZANIE NT\USŁUGA LOKALNA Cheers, Stephen. -----Original Message----- From: Phill Hogland [mailto:phogl...@rimage.com] Sent: 16 January 2014 14:25 To: wix-users@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: Re: [WiX-users] Problem with service install on non English OS I suspect what you need to do is to localize your setup for polish so that you have a english wxl and a polish wxl file (or the language of concern). And also specify the multiple cultures in your project file. If you don't really want to translate the dialogs then use english strings in the polish wxl file but specify the polish code page so that it can handle strings which include polish characters. (I localize my setups, but have not done what you are trying to do so this is a guess.) http://wixtoolset.org/documentation/manual/v3/howtos/ui_and_localization/make_installer_localizable.html http://wix.tramontana.co.hu/tutorial/transforms/morphing-installers -- View this message in context: http://windows-installer-xml-wix-toolset.687559.n2.nabble.com/Problem-with-service-install-on-non-English-OS-tp7591820p7591827.html Sent from the wix-users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ CenturyLink Cloud: The Leader in Enterprise Cloud Services.
