My guess is that the property name. MYPROPERTY, may be getting
modularized (appended with the merge module ID GUID, e.g.
MYPROPERTY.____) when it is included in
the main installation. So you might try adding the IgnoreModularization
tag to your merge module's WiX so
I have a Wise installer that includes a merge module created by WIX.
I want to set a variable in Wise and use it in the Wix Merge module.
I tried adding a "secure" property in Wise called MYPROPERTY and referenced

I think I figured out the issue. I thought that the OutOfDiskSpace
property was failing to be recalculated, but I was wrong. Instead it
was recalculating and still the C:\ drive didn't have enough space.
Thanks!

Still no luck. It now fails to install all together.
To give more context, I chain all the commands after InstallFinalize. Look
in the original email for entire code.

I know that this has been discussed here before, but I'm having
problems with file costing. I want to determine if there is free space
on the selected volume right after the install directory is selected.
I would be very appreciative of being pointed in the right direction.

As I've mentioned before, making them non-impersonated might fix SQL

The project-related variables are only generated for project references. You
don't get project variables for the WiX project itself. (Hmm... would that be a
nice feature to have?) So you need to add a reference from your WiX project to
another application project to get variables for that projec
