Hi all,

I am attempting to build a bootstrapper for my wix installer in order
install another program our customer wants deployed along with ours. I've
been given the .msi file.

Here's the error / warning I'm getting:
warning MSB3155: Item 'Network.Configurator' could not be located in
'C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v7.0A\Bootstrapper\'.

Also - when I run the setup.exe that is created along with my main .msi file
it doesn't run the SetupNetConfig.msi file.

Any help would be appreciated

Paul

What I have done so far is this.

1. created a folder called NetworkConfigurator for the installer in:

C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v7.0A\Bootstrapper\Packages\

2. copied the .msi file into the new folder
3. created the product.xml in the new folder: Here it is.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<Product
   xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/developer/2004/01/bootstrapper";
   ProductCode="Network.Configurator">

   <!-- Defines list of files to be copied on build -->
   <PackageFiles CopyAllPackageFiles="true">
      <PackageFile Name="SetupNetConfig.msi"/>
   </PackageFiles>

   <RelatedProducts>
      <DependsOnProduct Code="Microsoft.Windows.Installer.3.1" />
   </RelatedProducts>

   <ExitCodes>
      <ExitCode Value="0" Result="Success"/>
      <ExitCode Value="1641" Result="SuccessReboot"/>
      <ExitCode Value="3010" Result="SuccessReboot"/>
      <DefaultExitCode Result="Fail" String="GeneralFailure"/>
   </ExitCodes>

</Product>


4. created the EN folder
5. created the package.xml file in the EN folder

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<Package
   xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/developer/2004/01/bootstrapper";
   Name="DisplayName"
   Culture="Culture"

   <Strings>
      <String Name="DisplayName">Network.Configurator</String>
      <String Name="Culture">en</String>
      <String Name="NotAnAdmin">You must be an administrator to install this
package.</String>
      <String Name="GeneralFailure">A general error has occurred while
installing this package.</String>
   </Strings>
</Package>

6. Added the following to the wixproj file

 <ItemGroup>
    <BootstrapperFile Include="Network.Configurator">
      <ProductName>Network.Configurator</ProductName>
    </BootstrapperFile>
    <BootstrapperFile Include="Microsoft.Windows.Installer.3.1">
      <ProductName>Windows Installer 3.1</ProductName>
    </BootstrapperFile>
  </ItemGroup>
  <Target Name="AfterBuild" Outputs="$(Outdir)\Setup.exe">
    <GenerateBootstrapper ApplicationFile="$(TargetFileName)"
ApplicationName="Network Configurator"
BootstrapperItems="@(BootstrapperFile)" ComponentsLocation="Relative"
CopyComponents="True" OutputPath="$(OutputPath)" Path="C:\Program Files
(x86)\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v7.0A\Bootstrapper\" />
  </Target>
