Thank you for your hint, but could you give me an example, how to express that
in WiX?
I would write this as naïve attempt:
<ExePackage Id="SQLServer" SourceFile="X:\Software\Applikationen\SQL
Server\2008 R2\SQLEXPR32_x86_DEU.exe"
InstallCommand='/QS /ACTION=Install /SAPWD="express"
/IACCEPTSQLSERVERLICENSETERMS /CONFIGURATIONFILE="C:\some\path\config.ini">
<Payload Id="SQLServerConfigFile" SourceFile="C:\some\path\config.ini" />
</ExePackage>
But the /CONFIGURATIONFILE-Parameter links to a location in my local FS. When
the installer gets started it will not find the file in that location...

You should be able to do this using the PayLoad element as a child of your
ExePackage element.

Subject: [WiX-users] How to bundle a configuration file in burn?
Hello folks,
I would like to build a setup file for a MS SQL Server 2008 Express Edition
with a predefined configuration. One can pass a parameter
/ConfigurationFile={Absolute path to a ConfigFile.ini} to the setup file of
SQLServer in which many parameters are defined. Those config files can easily
be generated by the SQL Server UI-Setup Mode and therefore I would like to use
them also in my bundle. Now I face the problem of how I can provide the
required file and in addition which path I must define within the parameter. Is
there any chance to handle that with burn?
If not I have to provide *all* needed configuration parameters "by hand" to the
setup-file; this would solve the problem, but I consider this to be not very
comfortable... (I would have to change this long parameter-string every time
something changed...)
I hope you can give me some good advice, in order to avoid long trial and
errors.
Best regards,
Mit freundlichen Grüßen
Christian Hausknecht
