[wix-users] Burn enabling Net Feature on Windows Server

[Herman van Drie]

Cam,

Is the server behind a proxy server which requires authentication?
If so, when you - in your user-context - run the installer, it might use your credentials to authenticate to the internet proxy, and can download .cab from Microsoft. When installer runs in system-context, it usually attempts to access the proxy with anonymous credentials which in proxies needs to be allowed to a given destination.

Hi Herman

Thank you for your replay. But that makes no sense for me. The Features can still be enabled manually, so why not automatically?

When I run the command direct in Command Prompt like this " run.bat powershell.exe Install-WindowsFeature NET-Framework-Features -IncludeAllSubFeature"

The following error comes: " Install-WindowsFeature : You do not have adequate user rights to make changes to the target computer."

But when I run in an Administrator Command Prompt it works! 

Cheers Cam

Small typo/misunderstanding: NetFx3 installs dotNet 2.0/3.5. It does NOT install dotNet 4.x .
See wiki: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/.NET_Framework

4.5 = included in 2012
4.5.1 = included in 2012 R2

NetFx3 package is no longer included in Windows as a component. You'll see that is has the 'removed' status.
When you enable it like you do, it attempts to download the component from internet.

If you previously 'added' the package from the media: dism /online /add-package /packagepath:%SourceMedia%\sources\sxs\microsoft-windows-netfx3-ondemand-package.cab 

Than your command should run fine.

Kind regards,

Herman

I made a Burn installer, which activates Net Feature and installs .Net 4.7.



<ExePackage Id="FeatureNet35Client"

                  DisplayName="Aktivierung Feature DotNet 3.5 Client"

                  SourceFile="run.bat"

                  InstallCommand="dism.exe /online /enable-feature /featurename:NetFx3"

                  InstallCondition="NTProductType = "1" AND NOT Netfx35Version"

      />



This works fine on Windows 10, but not on Windows Server 2012.

I found out, that the feature names are different and that I could use "Install-WindowsFeature". So i changed my ExePackage for Windows Servers.



<ExePackage Id="FeatureNet35Server"

                  SourceFile="run.bat"

                  InstallCommand="powershell.exe Install-WindowsFeature NET-Framework-Features -IncludeAllSubFeature"

                  InstallCondition="NTProductType > "1" AND NOT Netfx35Version "

                  DetectCondition="Netfx35Version"

                  Cache="yes"

                  PerMachine="yes"

                  />



But every time I try to install I get



Error 0x80070001: Process returned error: 0x1 Error 0x80070001: Failed to execute EXE package.

Error 0x80070001: Failed to configure per-machine EXE package.

Applied execute package: FeatureNet35Server, result: 0x80070001, restart:

None

Error 0x80070001: Failed to execute EXE package.





I tried to add or remove PerMachine or run the Installer as Administrator, but nothing helped.

Any suggestions would really help me out?

Thank you!
