Hi, I am trying to migrate my wix 2 wxs files to wix 3 RTM. After doing that with wixcop(great tool), I still get errors from candle. error CNDL0035 : The Verb/@Sequence attribute cannot be specified when attribute Advertise is present with value 'no'. Following is my codes in wxs file. This is actually from wix tutorial. <Component Id="myfile" Guid="8E4C47A3-4CDB-4c2c-A783-0B21747DFC3C"> <ProgId Id="myfileid"> <Extension Id="my" ContentType="application/text"> <Verb Id="open" Sequence="10" Command="open" Target="[!FileId]" Argument=""%1"" /> </Extension> </ProgId> </Component> _________________________________________________________________ Invite your mail contacts to join your friends list with Windows Live Spaces.

Hi Bob, Thanks for your answer. After I remove the Sequence attribute, I still get errors. <Component Id="myfile" Guid="8E4C47A3-4CDB-4c2c-A783-0B21747DFC3C"> <ProgId Id="myfileid"> <Extension Id="my" ContentType="application/text"> <Verb Id="open" Command="open" TargetFile="FileId" Argument=""%1"" /> </Extension> </ProgId> </Component> error LGHT0094 : Unresolved reference to symbol 'File:FileId' Wixcop changed my original Target = "[!FileId]" to TargetFile="FileId". So in wix 2, it works if we specify: <Component Id="myfile" Guid="8E4C47A3-4CDB-4c2c-A783-0B21747DFC3C"> <ProgId Id="myfileid"> <Extension Id="my" ContentType="application/text"> <Verb Id="open" Command="open" Target="[!FileId]" Argument=""%1"" /> </Extension> </ProgId> </Component> I think our orginal intention is just to register a file type for an editor of our Visual Studio package. So it seems like there is no something about "the target file to be executed for the verb". > Date: Wed, 8 Jul 2009 07:51:20 -0400 > From: [hidden email] > To: [hidden email] > Subject: Re: [WiX-users] How to register file type with wix 3 RTM? > > Ryan Dai wrote: > > error CNDL0035 : The Verb/@Sequence attribute cannot > > be specified when attribute Advertise is present with value 'no'. > > > > If you have only a single Verb element, just omit the Sequence > attribute.

Ryan,
Where do you have a file with @Id of "FileId" defined? I register an extension as shown: <Component Id="ExeFile" Guid="..."> <File Id="FileId" Source=" MyApp.exe" /> <ProgId Advertise="no" Id="MyApp.MyExt.1" Icon="FileId" IconIndex="1" Description="MyApp File" > <Extension Id="myext" ContentType="application/xml"> <Verb Id="open" TargetFile="FileId" Argument=""%1"" /> </Extension> </ProgId> </Component> Notice that I have the file and the extension both in the same component. Perhaps this isn't required, but it makes sense to me since they must go together for my application, but perhaps other apps want the extension to be optional. Notice that both ProgId/@Icon and Verb/@TargetFile refer to File/@Id, which WiX 3.0 will convert to "[#FileId]" in the MSI file, which will be the full installed filepath in the registry after installation. [#FileId] is nearly equivalent to [!FileId], except the latter uses short filenames. Notice that WiX includes the double-quotes around the [#FileId] to avoid problems with spaces in the path. There are some warnings in the MSI documentation about [#FileId] only being resolved if the component installing the file has already been installed, so perhaps that has something to do with your problem. --Quinton -----Original Message----- From: Ryan Dai [mailto:[hidden email]] Sent: Wednesday, July 08, 2009 4:23 PM To: Wix; [hidden email] Subject: Re: [WiX-users] How to register file type with wix 3 RTM?

Hi Quinton, Actually our product is a add-in package of VS. And we just want to register a file type. In other word, there is no exe or file can be used to open file of that type. It actually works before even we don't put actual FileId:). So do you think we should register that file type to devenv.exe of VS? > Date: Thu, 9 Jul 2009 09:11:27 -0700 > From: [hidden email] > To: [hidden email] > Subject: Re: [WiX-users] How to register file type with wix 3 RTM? > > Ryan, > > Where do you have a file with @Id of "FileId" defined?
