Hi Neil, did the underlying msi files change? Are those signed correctly? I had the same problem and didn't get it to work with the commands you posted. Did you try overriding the build targets in your .wixproj file instead of using those commands as explained here too: http://wix.sourceforge.net/manual-wix3/insignia.htm ?

Betreff: Re: [WiX-users] Failed to extract all files from container This has got something to do with signing. If I sign on my dev machine everything is ok but on the build machine it gives this error. I am using this process if it is relevant: insignia -ib bundle.exe -o engine.exe ... sign engine.exe insignia -ab engine.exe bundle.exe -o bundle.exe ... sign bundle.exe I use the same build process on both machines, on the build machine it was ok but is now failing. As far as I can tell nothing has changed on the build machine. Neil -----Original Message----- From: Neil Sleightholm [mailto:n...@x2systems.com] Sent: 15 November 2012 16:52 To: General toolset.
