I'm following Peter Marcu's "Patching something you didn't build with WiX using
WiX" to try to patch my existing MSI that was built with WiX, but with a
version before WixPDB's.
The failing command is (simplified):
"%WIXBIN%pyro.exe" -v -notidy %FOLDER%patch.wixmsp -out c:\patch.msp -t
BaselineState %FOLDER%diff.wixmst
where BaselineState is in this line in my patch.wxs:
<PatchBaseline Id="BaselineState"/>
The error text is:
C:\dev\flamingo\2.0\diff.wixmst : error PYRO0104 : Not a valid output file;
detail: Invalid character in the given encoding. Line 1, position 1.
Because of "Invalid character in the given encoding" I looked at code pages and
encoding.
The .wixmst is generated from two MSI's, each with codepage 1252, generated
from WiX source files with encoding="UTF-8"
The .wixmst definitely has our specific content in it (I can see the correct
Property names in it).
We did look at the Pyro source code and couldn't find this error.
I can post files
Help?
