Please note that this message will contain a full copy of the comment thread, including the initial issue submission, for this request, not just the latest update. Category: candle Group: v3.0 >Status: Closed Resolution: Fixed Priority: 7 Private: No Submitted By: mballou (mballou11) Assigned to: Derek (derekc) Summary: No ShortName for RemoveFile entry Initial Comment: Using version 3.0.1814.0. I have the following entry in a component. <RemoveFile Id="RemoveFile1" Directory="Update" Name="UpdatedFiles.txt" On="uninstall" /> The generated .wixobj file from Candle does not include the "auto-generated" short name for the file and results in an ICE03 error during light.exe. The other entries that support auto generated short names such as Directory and File work correctly. Only RemoveFile seems to have a problem. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Derek (derekc) Date: 2006-07-26 06:57 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=518766 Good catch, should be fixed in the next weekly drop. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: mballou (mballou11) Date: 2006-06-22 23:42 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=1542685 I can't use the @ShortName either. If I add one, I get this message from candle.exe: .\setup.wxs(19) : error CNDL0193 : The RemoveFile/@Name attribute's value, 'UpdatedFiles.bat', cannot be specified with attribute ShortName present. If I remove @Name, it fails as well. For now I just leave no short name and disable ICE03 in the linker. It works fine for me that way. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Derek (derekc) Date: 2006-06-20 07:20 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=518766 Ugh, this is painful. Ok, we're gonna have to carefully look at the logic for validating wildcard-capable short file names. Right now it allows 16.3 but the MSI validation is much smarter so its not happy with that. For now, please authoring RemoveFile/@ShortName as a workaround. I'll look into fixing this for the next weekly release - I've also raised the priority a bit. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=642714&aid=1508965&group_id=105970 ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
