They log the original error message as supplied in the original exception.
In this case an AccessViolationException occurred, which is generated by the

Hi,
We are having issues with slipstreaming our RTM product with the SP1 MSP patch. The following error is thrown when the patch is being applied.

Light passes most of the .msi construction on to MSI itself, so that's
likely where any limit lives. Structured storage files can

That's a major upgrade, especially as you're reorganizing the feature

WiX v3 is not stable right now. WiX v2 works much better. When WiX v2 is
complete (soon, assuming shipping Vista and Office lets up soon) then I'll port
all those fixes up to WiX v3.

Dear All,
I've playing with WiX for a week now and it's a great toolset, but I've
hit a wall with a particularly strange error.
I'm using WiX 3.0.2526 (last week's build). Here's a snippet from my
.wxs file:

That's what I am saying the msistuff will do for you. That's exactly how I
have my setup. My packaged exe will perform an installation if it doesn't
exist, and it will update the installation if it DOES already exist.

I think that you might want to check out the Bootstrapper example that is on
the WiX sourceforge page (
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=105970&atid=654188)
After you build that, you should have a setup.exe. With that, you will be
able to use msistuff to package your MSI in it as well.
Hi,
I'm trying to create a Bootstrap exe file from my msi, that can be used as new
version of setup. This exe file could find the old version and upgrade them,
but my problem is, when it couldn't find any other version of product and
should act as a fresh setup, the feature tree will completel
As a general comment you seem to be missing the fact that once a merge
module has been merged into an MSI file it's just a set of components,
and you have to treat it that way. A MM is just a handy way to keep a
bunch of common components around in a package, so, some inline comments
to be specific
I'm an idiot. I wasn't using the Guid of a COMPONENT in the merge
module...I was using the Package/@Guid. My apologies.

Andre,
To deal with dark crashes what I've done in the past is some creative
"editing" using Orcas. Usually this means removing any offending entries and
or tables that dark is having trouble with. From the error message it looks
like dark doesn't like the value in a column named "KeyColumn". Sear

Hi,
I guess that will work.
I still believe the ~2GB limit is the problem here.
I cannot find the max filesize for System.IO.File but I recon its 64bit

problem...
