Vista x64 is my primary development environment for DTF and WiX, and that works for me.
Are you building from a 64bit command-prompt / 64bit MSBuild? If so, make sure you have installed the 64bit WiX MSI. (Also, that configuration is not very well-tested, so it's possible there are issues.) -----Original Message----- From: Nic Barden [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, October 14, 2008 2:16 PM To: wix-users@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: [WiX-users] Errors Building Custom Action on Vista x64 Hi, I have a custom action project that was created using the C# Custom Action Template in VS2008. This was building fine under XP 32 bit, but I am now trying to build on Vista 64 bit, which is causing a couple of issues: - The hard coded reference to the WiX V3 SDK is incorrectly "C:\Program Files\Windows Installer XML v3\SDK\" - it should actually be under "C:\Program Files (x86)\Xxx" - When I correct the paths and run the command directly via cmd.exe, I receive the error: "Error: Failed to load dependent assembly: C:\Program Files\Windows Installer XML v3\SDK\Microsoft.Deployment.WindowsInstaller.dll. Could not load file or assembly 'file:///C:\Program Files\Windows Installer XML v3\SDK\Microsoft.Deployment.WindowsInstaller.dll' or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified." Obviously the path it is searching for is incorrect again. Am I configuring something wrong? Or is this a known bug or limitation with the version I am running? (Version 3.0.4318.0) What do I need to change to get it to work?
