What is the difference between NetFx45WebLink and NetFx45RedistLink

由 白昼怎懂夜的黑 提交于 2019-12-10 13:43:11
问题 I used WiX 3.7 to write a bootstrapper which installs .net 4.5 first and then my application's MSI: <Chain> <PackageGroupRef Id="NetFx45Redist"/> <MsiPackage Id="MainAppPackage" After="NetFx45Redist" SourceFile="..\bin\Debug\MyApp.msi"/> </Chain> The WiX documentation says that NetFx45Redist is a standalone setup while the NetFx45Web is a web setup. After I built the bootstrapper with Id set to NetFx45Redist it had the same size compared to when I build it with NetFx45Web Id specified. I was

Wix upgrade: preselect features

由 こ雲淡風輕ζ 提交于 2019-12-10 11:17:58
问题 we're using Wix to create our installers. We're using the UI where one can select the features that need to be installed. Some features are enabled by default and others are disabled. However, these defaults are retained when we run an upgrade. We would like the installer to remember what features were installed and enable them in the Feature Tree for upgrading. All other features should be disabled. We had this code, which seemed to work, but actually, it didn't: <Feature Id="MainFeature"

Harvesting a .csproj with heat.exe in Visual Studio 2008 and WiX(v3)

由 帅比萌擦擦* 提交于 2019-12-10 03:41:43
问题 I found that Wix v3 uses a tool (heat.exe) to "harvest" information into WiX fragments. Either I am looking in the wrong location, or this is thinly documented. What is the best way to auto-generate a WiX fragment (likely using heat.exe) for a complex folder structure that contains media files: Of varying types (ico/png/xaml/etc) That may change regularly (names/locations/adds/removes) That are classified as "Content" and included in a .csproj such that they can be built into an installer via

WIX and Certificates in IIS

由 戏子无情 提交于 2019-12-08 02:55:53
问题 I am trying to setup my install to have my site configured with its certificate using WIX. I can view the certificate in IIS and have access to the .cer file. That is about all I know about certificates, so please dumb down any answers. (ie I have no idea what my "BinaryKey" is). The certificate is already installed on the machine. Ideally I would like to just have a way in wix to configure which installed certificate to use. If anyone knows how to do that please post it here! If that can't

WIX ServiceInstall - setting the service to run under the NetworkService account

由 吃可爱长大的小学妹 提交于 2019-12-07 09:16:27
问题 I am trying to create a WIX installer to install my windows service to run under the NetworkService account and getting an Insufficient Priviledges error during the installation. I found this post where someone seems to be experiencing the same problem but no real solution was offered: http://n2.nabble.com/Re-WiX-users-Digest-Vol-40-Issue-129-td3782055.html I'm sure someone must have acheived this previously and wondered if they'd be kind enough to share a code snippet? 回答1: NOTE: The answer
