As I understand it, if you run the setup program from the command line with the
/log filename option you will get a log from burn and then a separate file from
the msi if it runs at all.
If I get problems I usually try to install the bare msi first and then if that
is OK I can assume it's somet
Good morning,
In a pre-build step we are running Heat.exe, which generates a file with a
number of fragments. How would I embed this fragment file into my main file,
yielding a composite source file?
Thanks,

Is this happening across all supported operating systems or have you
been able to narrow it down to something like Windows 2008 Server and
Windows 7, for example? Sounds like UAC *might* be involved. When logged
in as the Domain User in Administrators group do a right click on your
MSI and choose "

someone tell what lines of code I would add to a WXS file to reference it to

You need a reference element to any one bit inside the fragment. The way Wix
linking currently works, a linkage to one item in a fragment brings in the
whole fragment.
For example, if you have a Component element in a fragment, you would link in
the fragment using a ComponentRef with the appro
Are you are using the built-in Visual Studio 2010 support, and have a WiX
Library and a WiX Setup Project?

Yep, you need to reference something in a fragment (DirectoryRef, ComponentRef,
etc) to load the fragment (it will all be loaded, note).

Hi,
I am using WiX 3.6.2221.0 to create a bootstrapper that - among others -
installs .NET Framework 4. To be flexible whether to download or embed the
package I created two package groups within one fragment in a WXS file:
http://download.microsoft.com/download/9/5/A/
It's been a while since I updated, so I grabed the latest build and installed
it...
I just wanted to take a minute to say KUDOS! The new installer (metro-ized) is
an awesome improvement! Nice work!

Latest WiX v3.6 builds support Dev11. You may need to run devenv.exe /setup
right now... we're trying to track down a real answer on that.

The linker usually does that for you as long as there is a reference to
something in each Fragment.

What happened to wix.targets?
After I Updated tonight, several of my builds broke (I used the methodology
that copies the wix binaries into the source tree to build so I don't have to
