Hi, At first glance for me the two files product and pacack.xml seem to have the wrong content.
As you describe your requirements have a look at SQL Server Compact Edition Prerequisite as it has a similar structure and the intention to install MSI packages. Pleaase therefore diff the whole folder (esp. the content of product.xml and package.xml) C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v7.0A\Bootstrapper\Packages\YourPackage against C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v7.0A\Bootstrapper\Packages\SQL Server Compact Edition Regards, Tobias 2011/3/25 Paul Brook <brook.p...@gmail.com>: > 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.
