I would be very happy to volunteer to do this if the requisite VS 2013 bits
could be made available to me.
Don't know if my manager can get them from Microsoft under our contract with
them or not--he's new anyway.

All,
I've got a customer who's getting an error when trying to install my
application, the installer of which was generated using Wix and Burn. From the
burn log, I can see the installer attempts to cache the bundle and the logs
reads thus

Ok, looks like I can access that. Just need manager approval now.

Process Monitor is usually where I turn when I get a mysterious file
locking/access denied issue. Often we see virus checker's messing with Burn
in these scenarios but would be great to know for sure.

Wasn't there a bug a while back where the ACL's on the package cache were
getting messed up and causing similar behaviors? What version of Wix is your
installer using?

The design of your install (and probably the app that uses that file) is
incorrect. A data file that needs preserving from one install through
upgrades and so on needs to be in a Common Files or Application Data
location. If the app uses the file in the installation folder, then the
app's design
Yes. Getting into Votive can be daunting. I'm not much help because
I basically know nothing about Votive, I've never worked on it (except to
fix build breaks due to the crazy InternalsVisibleTo attributes I wish

That's why I suggested people could help in other areas. If there
Thanks for the reply, Rob. I saw someone mention about AV software interfering
with installations when I was researching the error message and I've already
suggested to my customer that they turn their anti-virus off if they have any
to do the install. We'll see if that makes any difference.
Jacob,
It's Wix V3.6.3303.0 which if I recall is the stable reversion of WiX 3.6.

I may have some time later this weekend to take a swing at it; is there any
documentation around that describes how to setup an environment to build (and
maybe test) with?

Rob,
Are there known votive issues other then it's not wired up to VS2013 yet?
The reason I ask is because I just setup a VM with VS2013 and WiX 3.7 and
was able to perform a few file copies and devenv /setup (may not be needed,
will reproduce to confirm ) and get the WiX VSIX package to
I wanted to pass on the results of a test I did today. I started with a
Win7 VM with IE10 (prereq of VS) and VS2013. I then performed the
following steps:
Copy Files from a VS2010/VS2012 Dev Machine to the VM:
[ProgramFilesFolder]WiX Toolset v3.7\bin
IncludeFile.ico
LocationFile.ico
I now see the SDK\VS2010 and SDK\VS2012 folders that include inc and lib
subfolders. I suspect this is where much of the work will need to be done
to make VS specific libs and wired up to the version.
Unless there is something else I'm missing, I'm thinking that a C++ / WiX

I only see 6 open tickets with the votive tag for 3.x. Only 2 of them
indicate VS2013 and they seem dupes of each other. It seems to only be a
high level support 2012 bug so it doesn't really seem to spell out the
work that needs to be done. I'm guessing it's 40 hours worth of work. I

thanks a lot. I'm writing the install location to the registry as of now ..
so the upgrade would read that location from the registry and copy over the
file after installation.. so the earlier file would need to be overwritten.
Where could I schedule this copyfile? Would it be a custom action ?
