I am having a couple of problems with Wix V2. They may be related. I've included my system configuration at the bottom.
First thing, I cannot get Votive to create a valid Wix project file.
Installation of Votive was successful (Version 5325). After installation, when
I open Visual Studio I can see the new Wizard for creating Wix Projects. When I
use the wizard to create a Wix project it has a problem.
The status bar says "Creating project "WixProject1.wixproj"...project creation
was successful", but there is nothing at all in the Solution Explorer. If I
look at the WixProject1.wixproj file, it looks OK (see attached), but VS
doesn't do anything with it. Closing and reloading the project just gets
"ready" in the status bar.
Secondly, I cannot compile the Delivery project.
dtools debug succeeded.
wix debug failed.
wix20 debug failed.
WIX 2.0 fails to compile with: "Building WiX requires .NET Framework 1.1 SDK".
However, I know it is installed. It's part of the OS.
Wix 3.0 fails with:
Using NANT from the C:\Delivery\Dev\wix directory:
[exec] Build FAILED.
