FDI Error code of 11 means user aborted; I found that interesting so I dug into
this a bit...
sfxca\Extract.cpp :: ExtractCabinet
Comments note that the destination directory (szExtractDir) must
already exist (and should be empty)
sfxca\Extract.cpp :: FNFDINOTIFY...
case fdintCOPY_FILE...
pfdin->psz1 is the name of the file within the cabinet,
including the 'folder name'. For this example, assume "Foo\File.txt" and the
extraction directory is "C:\Extract"
Then we get to this code...
1 size_t cchFile = MultiByteToWideChar(CP_UTF8, 0, pfdin->psz1,
-1, NULL, 0);
2 size_t cchFilePath = wcslen(g_szExtractDir) + 1 + cchFile;
3 wchar_t* szFilePath = (wchar_t*) _alloca((cchFilePath + 1) *
sizeof(wchar_t));
4 if (szFilePath == NULL) return -1;
5 StringCchCopyW(szFilePath, cchFilePath + 1, g_szExtractDir);
6 StringCchCatW(szFilePath, cchFilePath + 1, L"\\");
7 MultiByteToWideChar(CP_UTF8, 0, pfdin->psz1, -1,
8 szFilePath + cchFilePath - cchFile, (int) cchFile + 1);
9 int hf;
10 _wsopen__s(hf, szFilePath,
11 _O_BINARY | _O_CREAT | _O_WRONLY | _O_SEQUENTIAL,
12 _SH_DENYWR, _S_IREAD | _S_IWRITE);
13 return hf
szFilePath becomes C:\Extract\Foo\File.txt
Then the call to _wsopen__s (line 10) to that file path...well, the directory
doesn't exist ('C:\Extract\Foo' [however 'c:\Extract' does]) and this function
doesn't create it, so it returns failure and a -1 for "hf". -1 then is
returned (line 13) which in this context, means user abort.
Hence "SFXCA: Failed to extract to temporary directory. Cabinet error code 11."
appears in the MSI log.

Has anyone gotten this error when using DTF?SFXCA: Failed to extract to
temporary directory. Cabinet error code 11.
Has anyone managed to pack a directory using another method?
Thanks,
