installer/SQLInsight.wxs (WiX 3 syntax) builds on Linux with wixl
(installer/build-msi.sh) and in Forgejo CI on every v* tag. Agent and Web
are installed self-contained as Windows services under virtual service
accounts (or a gMSA), with a settings page in the wizard or MSI
properties for silent installs; the values go to sqlinsight.ini, read
after appsettings.json. The data folder is locked to SYSTEM,
Administrators and the agent account, the event log source is
registered, the web port is opened in the firewall, and the automatic
update task is an optional feature. Upgrades happen in place, keep
edited settings and the chosen features; uninstall keeps the settings.
msi-tables.py writes what wixl lacks (component and feature conditions,
Permanent/NeverOverwrite, vital services, REG_EXPAND_SZ) and
verify-msi.py checks the result (sequencing, deferred actions, ASCII
only). test-msi-wine.sh runs install, upgrade and uninstall under Wine.
Installations made with the MSI get new versions as MSI packages run by
the update task, so Windows Installer stays in charge of the files.
The example instance is removed from the shipped appsettings.json, and
the CLI writes UTF-8 to the console.

Rule packs (support dates and newest CU per release) are published in a
signed feed and hot-loaded without a restart; the verified pack is
reloaded at startup. New versions are announced (Notify) or downloaded
and staged by the unprivileged agent (Automatic), and installed by a
privileged apply-update task that re-verifies signature and hash in an
admin-only folder, keeps appsettings/web.config, health-checks the
services and rolls back on failure. Stable and preview channels,
manifest expiry and rollback protection, https or folder/share feeds
for offline sites. Vendor tool gains rulepack and publish; the Hub can
serve the feed; the web UI gets a System page with update, rule pack,
license and exactly what is sent to the Hub.
