I want to create an installer using WiX, which will install following pieces of software, if they aren't installed already:
- installs IIS Server Express 8.0
- SQL Server 2012 Express.
To do this, I created following Setup.wxs file:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<Wix xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/wix/2006/wi">
<Product Id="*"
Name="Your Application"
Language="1033"
Version="1.0.0.0"
UpgradeCode="6431D91E-AD61-4FBB-A081-B63A0E416888"
Manufacturer="Your Company">
<Package Description="#Description"
Comments="Comments"
InstallerVersion="200"
Compressed="yes"/>
<!-- Installation directory and files are defined in Files.wxs -->
<Directory Id="TARGETDIR" Name="SourceDir"/>
<!--
Using the Wix UI library.
WixUI_Minimal is the most basic of the WixUI stock dialog sets.
Its sole dialog combines the welcome and license-agreement
dialogs and omits the feature customization dialog.
WixUI_Minimal is appropriate when your product has no optional
features.
-->
<UIRef Id="WixUI_Minimal"/>
<Binary Id="Iis"
SourceFile="D:\dev\wix-installer\ref\iis-8-express\iisexpress_8_0_RTM_x64_de-DE.msi" />
<Binary Id="SqlServer"
SourceFile="D:\dev\wix-installer\ref\sql-server-2012-express\SQLEXPR_x64_DEU.exe" />
<CustomAction
Id="InstallIis"
Impersonate="no"
Execute="deferred"
BinaryKey="Iis"
ExeCommand="D:\dev\wix-installer\ref\iis-8-express\iisexpress_8_0_RTM_x64_de-DE.msi"
Return="asyncWait" />
<CustomAction
Id="InstallSqlServer"
Impersonate="no"
Execute="deferred"
BinaryKey="SqlServer"
ExeCommand="D:\dev\wix-installer\ref\sql-server-2012-express\SQLEXPR_x64_DEU.exe"
Return="asyncWait" />
<InstallExecuteSequence>
<Custom Action="InstallIis" After="InstallInitialize"/>
<Custom Action="InstallSqlServer" After="InstallIis"/>
</InstallExecuteSequence>
</Product>
</Wix>
The Files.wxs file contains following text:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<Wix xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/wix/2006/wi">
</Wix>
When I run msiexec /l*v "log.txt" /i Installer.msi, I get a message that there was a failure during the installation. Here is the contents of the log.txt file.
How should I modify the WiX files in order for them to install IIS and SQL Server by executing the files iisexpress_8_0_RTM_x64_de-DE.msi and SQLEXPR_x64_DEU.exe?
