can't run migrations. Table doesn't exists
ruby-on-rails,setup-project,database-migration
Your migrations are seemingly in an inconsistent state, which is fine. Instead of rake db:create and rake db:migrate, you should simply be running rake db:setup to create the database and restore the actual authoritative state of the database from db/schema.rb. You are not supposed to be able to clone any...
Delphi exe setup in visual studio
visual-studio-2010,setup-project
This still applies even though it's VS 2005 - setup projects haven't changed. https://www.simple-talk.com/dotnet/visual-studio/getting-started-with-setup-projects/ The fact that it's a delhpi exe doesn't matter. To get it installed you just use the setup project's IDE, the File System on Target Machine view and drag/drop the exe into (usually) the Applcation Folder....

Visual Studio Setup Project not removing DLL
c#,.net-4.0,console-application,setup-project
It seems I was able to fix this issue by renaming the solution and product name of the application, I'm not sure how this fixed it, but it did. My only thoughts here is this traversed through to the installer, where the application installed into a different folder, thus not...
How can I determine the prerequisites for my program to run on a new, “fresh” system?
visual-studio,setup-project,prerequisites

How to code for Custom Dialog in Setup Project?
MS seem to have deleted the walkthroughs on how to do this when setup projects were taken out of VS. However if you look at the property window of that RadioButtons(2) dialog you'll see there's an uppercase property name, probably BUTTON2. That will be set to 0 or 1. The...

How to declare virtual path in .wxs file?
Assuming you are already using heat to generate your components, you can specify a variable by using -var <VariableName>. According to the docs this will: Substitute File/@Source="SourceDir" with a preprocessor or a wix variable (e.g. -var var.MySource will become File/@Source="$(var.MySource)\myfile.txt" and -var wix.MySource will become File/@Source="!(wix.MySource)\myfile.txt".

Enterprise Library not logging in setup project

Skip A Dialog In Visual Studio Setup Project
visual-studio-2010,visual-studio,installer,setup-project
There are no capabilities in Visual Studio setups to do this. VS setups are going away anyway after VS 2010, so you should choose an MSI-building tool that has this capability. You could in principle use Orca to manually change the MSI tables, such as the ControlEvent table, but it...
VS2010 setup project define default installation directory to appfolder
visual-studio-2010,setup-project,setup-deployment
AppDataFolder is the current user's roaming folder, and it won't install your files to every user's roaming folder. InstallAllUsers doesn't change the fact that it's a single user's folder. Having said that, I believe that what you're doing might be normal. I think Office expects add-ins and so on to...

Automatic installation of .NET framework from InnoSetup installer
If you try to execute dotNetFx40_Full_setup.exe /q /passive /norestart manually, you get the same behavior. After some testing, I believe you cannot combine /q and /passive. It makes sense as both do the same thing little differently. Just use only one of the /q or the /passive in your code,...
