[wix-users] CustomExitDialog conflicts with ExitDialog on sequence when OnExit=success is used

[hicham.seffendji at bt.com]

Thanks for your reply Phil. The problem is I am not able to renumber or delete the default ExitDialog as I do not have access to its wxs. I know it is available on GitHub but the way I am using it in the project is by reference (not adding the classes). Do you reckon it's a good idea if I checkout the source from GitHug, alter it then build a new binary to use with my project?

Regards,
Hicham

There are some reserved numbers for UI exit dialogs, and -1 is the one for a normal exit dialog (-3 is used for fatal error). Windows Installer goes to these dialog by number, not by name. If you want to substitute that your own dialog it must therefore be -1, and renumber or delete the default -1 dialog. Duplicate number aren't a good thing either.

Hi,

I have created MyExitDialog in a separate wxs file with:

      <InstallUISequence>
              <Show Dialog="MyExitDialog" After="VerifyReadyDlg" /> </InstallUISequence>

The project fails to build and complains about:

Error 30 ICE82: This action MyExitDialog has duplicate sequence number -1 in the table InstallUISequence

The moment I change OnExit to something else (sequence or After/Before), it works fine. What I really want is OnExit to override the ExitDialog's behaviour.

I am using WiX 3.9 by the way. Any help would be appreciated


Kind Regards,
