If you don't mind, please log the installation of:

Just get to the welcome dialog and cancel out.  You don't need to install all the way.

Christopher,

Please tell me what tables I should check. Isn't AppSearch command done by the WiX engine?

I see the differences in the log including the MSI name was different.

I don't know how these were built.  Have you compared the databases using ORCA and compared the relevant tables?

Hi Christopher,

I'm not talking about the WiX plugin for VS 2019. The issue is VS2017DEVENV property is not available during installation on system with VS 2017. If I run the installer on a system with VS 2019, VS2019DEVENV property is available.

If I go back to WiX 3.11, VS2017DEVENV  property is again working properly when running on VS 2017 system.

I have VS2019 15.9.4 installed on my build server with the 1.0.0.2 WiX VS 2017 extension and WiX 3.14.0.2927 installed.  Everything works just fine.

Hi Rob,

It appears my conclusion was too quick. The support for VS 2019 is working fine. However, the support for VS 2017 is now broken. I have tested with the following VS 2017 versions - 15.9.9, 15.8.6, 15.5.2, 15.4.1

I have done the test on a clean machine with no other VS version installed on it. After I went back to WiX 3.11, the installation is again working properly for VS 2017. Version 3.14.0.2927 is broken.

Ah, I was looking at https://wixtoolset.org/releases/ since it had the 1.0.0.2 of 2019.

I've installed all of them and 3.14 on my build box and 3.14 and updated IsWiX to use the 2019 detection feature in 3.14 and everything looks good to me.

The only thing of note is how much smaller the 2010-2015 versions of the extension are and how quickly they installed.  I had an initial sense that they were missing something and the installation success was a false positive but everything seems to be there just fine.

Yes. VS2017 (and all the others) exist here: https://github.com/wixtoolset/VisualStudioExtension/releases/tag/v1.0.0.2

Rob:



RE the VS2019 extension and the item template issue...   does that need a new build of the VS2017 extension also?
