one solution would be to create two mutually exclusive components, one for Vista and one for the rest of the operating systems you want; components would have same executable and service install functions, but the one for Vista would add "WinHTTPAutoProxy" as dependancy. the other way is to install the service through InstallScript custom action and use a switch or if statement.
This doesn't seem to work. I just get error 1920 verify you have sufficient priveledges.
I have tried adding the registry using a custom action (custom action > new exe > path referencing directory), and try and run the reg.exe file, everything runs fine no errors but the registry key is not added. I can't figure out what I am doing wrong. It works fine when I run manually.
The custom action looks like below: Working dir: windows system32 folder Filename and commandline: REG ADD HKLM\system\currentdataset\services\gravitaswellmanager /v DependsOnService [SystemFolder]reg.exe return processing: Synchronous(ignore exit code) in script execution: Deferred execution in system context Install exec sequence: After install services condition: Not installed
