Hi, In my Database dialog I am allowing the user to choose whether to use their own copy of SQL Server or use a dedicated SQL Server Express 2012.
If they choose the dedicated SQL Server on Next Click I run a custom action that determines if the OS is 32 or 64 bit and run the appropriate SQL Server Express 2012 installer (.exe) I also set up the command line parameters for Windows Authentication or SQL Server authentication etc... The only problem is that Burn caches the installer into a temp directory and I can no longer find my 2 SQL Server EXE's: const string sqlExpress2012X64 = "SQLEXPR_x64_ENU.exe"; const string sqlExpress2012X86 = "SQLEXPR_x86_ENU.exe"; var sourceDir = GetSessionProperty(session, "SourceDir", false); //course this doesn't work since burn cache's the installer... var sourceExe = Is64BitWindows() ? sqlExpress2012X64 : sqlExpress2012X86; var cmdLineExe = sourceDir + sourceExe; I use ProcessStartInfo to execute the EXE and set up the command line parameter as well... If I run the .MSI (with the SQL exe's beside it) it runs perfectly... but using my BURN exe it fails since it cache's the .MSI into a temp folder and it can no longer find the .EXE's any idea on how to solve this? (I guess I would have to add the 2 SQL installers as binary files?)
