Subject: Re: [WiX-users] Need some help on wix Hi Eitan, I verified the following: 1) Old dll has version 3.8.173.1 and the newer one has 1.8.173.2 . Is it ok to differ at the fourth place only? 2) We have an internal site http://patchman/wipe which takes old msi and the modified dlls as input and gives msp and modified msi as output. I found the following in its build log. Are you suggesting to use -f in the case of light.exe? <<build.log>> "E:\WIPE September 2008\wix2\candle.exe" -out E:\temp\4b4db160-82bc-46ea-bb88-22c8cc7897fa\7efc83e9-3c16-4677-a6bb-ecf797ff11f2.wixobj E:\temp\4b4db160-82bc-46ea-bb88-22c8cc7897fa\7efc83e9-3c16-4677-a6bb-ecf797ff11f2.wxs "E:\WIPE September 2008\wix2\light.exe" -out E:\temp\4b4db160-82bc-46ea-bb88-22c8cc7897fa\patch30.pcp E:\temp\4b4db160-82bc-46ea-bb88-22c8cc7897fa\7efc83e9-3c16-4677-a6bb-ecf797ff11f2.wixobj "E:\WIPE September 2008\wix2\msimsp.exe" -s "patch30.pcp" -p "MicrosoftEDIPathpatch30.msp" -l "buildpatch.log" -f patchtemp Thanks, Sandeep ________________________________________ From: Eitan Behar [ei...@baconao.net] Sent: Friday, January 30, 2009 12:10 AM To: General discussion for Windows Installer XML toolset.
