Hello all,
We have a requirement that the generated msi include the project name and
version (e.g. MyAppInstaller v1.0.1.msi). The OutputName tag in the wixproj
file contains the generated msi name. Is there a way to update the
OutputName tag within the product.wxs file? I would like to set it to
The wixproj can pass constants to be used in the wxs, not the other way
around.
You can edit the wixproj by hand and use MSBuild properties such as:
In the OutName property element = ProductName_$(WiXProductVersion)
Then later in the DefineConstants property element you can say

Now when you call MSBUILD you pass in /p:WiXProductVersion=1.2.3 and
you'll get an MSI with that in the name and that version in the property
table.
Would I need to do some kind of custom action for the part referenced above?
Are you talking about a manual step
Where will you be getting your version information from? You could use a
MSBuild task to read it from an ini and set both a MSBuild property and a Wix
Define. If you want the version information to be set via your primary exe you

One can easily solve this by having a line
Hi I am new to Wix,
I have created a MSI package having single file (dll or exe) by providing
the file source in product.wxs.
But if needed to create folder structure of website as a MSI package which
was compiled in release mode then how can we configure it in product.wxs?
File Source=C:\SCBU

How do you call MSBuild? Do you use TFS or CruiseControl? Maybe a .BAT
file?
Personally, I use TFS 2012 and in my workflow I use a Versioning activity
that takes care of my AssemblyInfo.cs files and passing the property into
the WiX MSBuild solutions.
Have you downloaded the files it says are missing, they are not there by
default (at least not on my machine)?
Also my @path has no trailing \

OKI downloaded the files and now it works.
One thing to note is to Unblock the files after you download them (right
click- Properties - Unblock)
Files go to C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft
SDKs\Windows\v8.0A\Bootstrapper\Packages\package_name\ folder
