My WiX project has a handful of prerequisites, for example, the application requires .NET 3.5 SP1. My WiX project correctly does not run unless SP1 is installed. I understand that this needs to be done in a bootstrapper. However, after a couple of hours of reading on the Internet and experimenting, I'm feeling like I'm not getting anywhere.
So... I tried something simple, to use setupbld to wrap a test MSI. When I run the created setup.exe either from the command line or by double-clicking on it, nothing seems to happen. Is there debugging information for the created setup.exe? Here's the command line that I use to build: PS O:\projects\TestInstall\bin\Debug> setupbld -o setup.exe -msu TestInstall.msi -title "Test Setup.exe" -setup "C:\Program Files\Windows Installer XML v3\bin\setup.exe" This is what I see when I run: PS O:\projects\TestInstall\bin\Debug> .\setup.exe PS O:\projects\TestInstall\bin\Debug> In other words, I immediately get back the command prompt. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Join us December 9, 2009 for the Red Hat Virtual Experience, a free event focused on virtualization and cloud computing.
