Wix - install as non-admin and add to GAC

开发者 https://www.devze.com 2023-01-25 06:58 出处:网络
I am writing an installer using WIX, and I need to add a .dll file to the GAC. I use: <File Id=\"my.dll\" Name=\"my.dll\" DiskId=\"1\" Source=\"..\\MyResources\\\" KeyPath=\"yes\" Assembly=\".net

I am writing an installer using WIX, and I need to add a .dll file to the GAC. I use:

 <File Id="my.dll" Name="my.dll" DiskId="1" Source="..\MyResources\" KeyPath="yes" Assembly=".net" />

This works perfectly fine for the Administrator user, however when i run this from a non-administrator user, the installer fails with an error that i don't have privileges.

Is there a way to overcome this?

If i write a custom action, will i be able to use gacutil from a non-administrator user?

Than开发者_StackOverflow社区ks for your help, Maxim


Installing to the GAC requires administrator privs. The only way a standard user can do it is to have the package advertised by an admin. This way the system will trust the package and when the standard user runs the install it will elevate during the execute sequence and use System to publish the assembly to the GAC.
