I agree on the too aggressive bit, especially since Wix is explicitly(in the exe.config files) set to run under .net 2.0 as well as 1.1. Presumably, any bug fixes that were present in 1.1 SP1 are also present in 2.0, which means that this message is only correct if there is an error, and if the user is running under 1.1.
Thanks for the heads-up, Mike, I'll check into the xml, especially how it looks after the include is processed. I will send out an email once I find the root cause, so everyone can share in the learning. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, November 22, 2006 7:38 AM To: Cullen Waters; Wix-Users List Subject: Re: [WiX-users] Error code lookup [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > Is there a way to lookup Wix error codes?

IIRC in v3 all the Message elements carry a Number attribute so you can simply search for Number="124". I've looked into this problem before and I think that you've actually got malformed XML, or after performing the include step the XML is malformed. I noted last time that the <Component> element is not valid under <Include> in the WiX v2 schema. The catch block in Preprocessor.cs reports SP1ProbablyNotInstalled if *any* XmlException occurs, which seems too aggressive to me. No doubt some exception is erroneously thrown if SP1 isn't installed and you try to load an XmlDocument from a StringReader, but can we not tell the difference between this and an actual malformed document? -- Mike Dimmick ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
