Re: [WiX-users] WixUI LGHT0103

[Arnette, Bill]

It is a PowerShell issue.  I have do to the same quoting when using NAnt when I want to pass a property on the command line.  Ex. Nant -D:property=value  in cmd.exe has be typed in PowerShell as Nant "-D:property=value".  Thinking about it, it may have to do with how it parses the command line for providers; ex. D: or $env:PATH or hklm:Software.   Bill From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Mike Dimmick Sent: Monday, October 09, 2006 12:22 PM To: Bob Arnson; Christer Solskogen Cc: wix-users@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: Re: [WiX-users] WixUI LGHT0103 I'd take a guess that PowerShell is somehow messing up the parsing of the : and giving the two arguments "-cultures" "en-us", and that light's command-line parser then interprets "en-us" as being a source file for it to process. It then fails because it can't find the file.   This parameter is inconsistent with -ext and -loc, as is -sice: which may well suffer from the same problem under PowerShell, if that is the problem. -ext and -loc expect the following argument to be an extension or a localization file, respectively.   -- Mike Dimmick From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Bob Arnson Sent: 09 October 2006 16:16 To: Christer Solskogen Cc: wix-users@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: Re: [WiX-users] WixUI LGHT0103 Christer Solskogen wrote: It seems like wix dont like to be run from PowerShell/Monad.

I'm not sure if we can do anything to make PowerShell happy but if we can, we should. -- sig://boB http://bobs.org
