To answer my own question I think I have figured it out. If I run cl
from my default command prompt is runs version 12, if I start a VS 2005
command prompt by running "%VS80COMNTOOLS%\vsvars32bat" I get version 14
which works.

 

Could "%VS80COMNTOOLS%\vsvars32.bat" be added to the make.bat so that
the correct version is selected?

I have VS 6, 2003 and 2005 installed on my PC, how do I determine which
one it will use?

What version of the C++ compiler are you using?  It looks like you're
using something older than 2005 that doesn't support a number of
provided parameters (-GS -RTC1).

Thanks for the response but I don't think this is the problem as the cl
command is running but it is failing to build the "dutil" source.

There are a few command-line tools (this is the C compiler) the build
calls that may not be in your path, this is one of them. You can:

 

Easy: Add the path to cl.exe to your path (mine is at c:\Program
Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\VC\bin\cl.exe)

 

Difficult: Find where this tool definition is in the build scripts and
set it's path there.

 

It's been so long since I built Wix on my own (to get around a bug that
has been fixed) that maybe the second one is more obvious than the
first. Don't know.
