First step is to describe the location of the INI file in such a way as to enable using the IniFileSearch element. Easiest may be to have your bootstapper supply a property to the MSI with the INI file's location.

Subject: [WiX-users] setup.ini... (Wix 3.5) Has anyone used Setup.ini to configure the public properties of an install? I am having some difficulty getting this to work. I am using a bootstrapper that installs .NET 3.5SP1, and then an MSI that has public properties deailing with things like Server names, user accounts, etc. I cannot seem to get the installers to use an .ini file that contains this information? Is there some magic voodoo to this? ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- -- Let Crystal Reports handle the reporting - Free Crystal Reports 2008 30-Day trial.
