Hi all, I am working on task which includes upgrading Visual Studio 2010 to 2013 as well as upgrading WiX 3.5 to WiX 3.8. I have the basic knowledge of WiX and i am not the expertise as such.
Conversion of .NET projects were successful, however in case of WiX projects conversion from 3.5 to 3.8 i have outlined the following steps: 1. Locally install WiX 3.8 2. Get latest source code from Source Control. 3. Open the solution file in Visual Studio 2013. 4. Right click on .Wixproj file and click upgrade. Now all the projects are upgraded to latest version of .Net 4.5/4.5.1. When i tried to build the solution i am getting the following error for all wix projects (below mentioned is a sample error list for reference) Error 104 The specified task executable location "C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Installer XML v3.5\bin\candle.exe" is invalid. C:\Program Files (x86)\MSBuild\Microsoft\WiX\v3.x\wix2010.targets 2066 Error 105 The specified task executable location "C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Installer XML v3.5\bin\candle.exe" is invalid.
