Category: votive Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: Kjell-Åke Andersson (spacelord72) >Assigned to: Bob Arnson (barnson) Summary: Path to executables is hardcoded Initial Comment: When WiX is installed on Win x64 Votive will fail to execute when building a project with the error: Error 48 The specified task executable location "C:\Program Files\Windows Installer XML v3\bin\candle.exe" is invalid. C:\Program Files (x86)\MSBuild\Microsoft\WiX\v3.0\Wix.targets 109 6 MSMQStudioWiX It seems like the path to the executables are hardcoded in Votive. Please change the installer to put the path to the binaries into a regkey in HKLM and use it instead. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Justin Rockwood (justinrockwood) Date: 2007-04-17 22:38 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=1054914 Originator: NO Bob, in Votive.wxs we're writing out a registry key that stores the value of the [BinDir]. What is the expected behavior here? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Kjell-Åke Andersson (spacelord72) Date: 2006-12-15 03:18 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=1652392 Originator: YES This would also be great for other tools that use WiX as well as it will be easier to find the executables. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=642714&aid=1616064&group_id=105970 ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by DB2 Express Download DB2 Express C - the FREE version of DB2 express and take control of your XML.
