Rule #1:  You must use bindpaths in your RTM msi.

Hi Tobias, 

I'm also trying to build the .mst based on the .wixout instead the .msi Do you 
have any insight on the subject? Did you managed to fix it out?

Manually upgrade your production database.

[WiX-users] Generate mst files based on wixout instead of MSIs (to reduce build time)

2014-08-29 Thread Tobias S
Hi all,

Goal is to build the language transforms (mst files) based upon the wixout
files instead the MSIs to drastically reduce build time.

I read
http://windows-installer-xml-wix-toolset.687559.n2.nabble.com/torch-transforms-td7588172.html
http://windows-installer-xml-wix-toolset.687559.n2.nabble.com/Building-localized-versions-of-an-installer-td710501.html#a710505

For simplification a simple sample: we want a german mst using wix3.6.

In my understanding it works like following:
1. light to generate wixout files for all lanugages (e.g. en-us.wixout,
de-de.wixout)
2. torch to create wixmst file as diff between the 2 wixout files
3. torch to create mst based on wixmst and ???

Now I'm struggling with the correct command line syntax for that.
For 1. I assume just using the -xo should be ok
For 2.
torch.exe -t language -v -p -xi -xo en-US\MstPerformanceTesting.wixout
de-de\MstPerformanceTesting.wixout -out en-US\MstPerformanceTesting.wixmst
For 3.
torch.exe" "en-US\MstPerformanceTesting.wixmst" -out
en-US\MstPerformanceTesting.mst

results in a
torch.exe : error TRCH0001 : The given path's format is not supported.

Exception Type: System.NotSupportedException

Is the syntax / approach correct?
Am I struggling with bugs in WiX 3.6? Or with something else?

Thanks and best regards,
Tobias
