Are you running the build on the parent partition or in a VM? The latest version of WiX throws a different error message because the most common cause is trying to validate an x64 package on an x86 machine. Try double-clicking the .msi package to see what message you get. -- sig://boB http://joyofsetup.com/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Open Source Business Conference (OSBC), March 24-25, 2009, San Francisco, CA -OSBC tackles the biggest issue in open source: Open Sourcing the Enterprise -Strategies to boost innovation and cut costs with open source participation -Receive a $600 discount off the registration fee with the source code: SFAD http://p.sf.net/sfu/XcvMzF8H _______________________________________________ WiX-users mailing list WiX-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/wix-users
