Thanks Neil for the reply. I am giving the InstallCommand as '/ACTION=Install'
because I want the entire SQL Server installation to be interactive for the
user. Can't I have the prerequisite installation as interactive in Burn? I
tried out the SQL Server installation with '/ACTION=Install' from the command
line and it worked. Not sure why Burn is failing. Also, seeing the error log of
burn ('Failed to extract all files from container.'), it seems that burn is
failing to extract the SQL Server setup file (I may be wrong).
Thanks.

I'd recommend running the SQL install from a batch file to start with to get
the command line correct and then plug that in to burn. The command line
reference is here: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms144259.aspx
My command lines are:
<?define InstanceName = "YOUR_INSTANCE" ?>
InstallCommand="/ACTION=Install /INSTANCENAME=$(var.InstanceName) /FEATURES=SQL
/SECURITYMODE=SQL /SAPWD=YOUR_PASSWORD /TCPENABLED=1 /SQLSVCACCOUNT="NT
AUTHORITY\NETWORK SERVICE" /SQLSVCSTARTUPTYPE=Manual
/SQLSYSADMINACCOUNTS=BUILTIN\Administrators /Q /HIDECONSOLE
/SkipRules=RebootRequiredCheck /IAcceptSQLServerLicenseTerms"
UninstallCommand="/Action=Uninstall /INSTANCENAME=$(var.InstanceName)
/FEATURES=SQL /Q /HIDECONSOLE"
RepairCommand="/ACTION=Repair /INSTANCENAME=$(var.InstanceName) /Q /HIDECONSOLE"
This is installing with SQL security which you might not want.
This doesn't really help with the error you are seeing but the command line you
have doesn't look correct to me.

Subject: [WiX-users] Unable to burn MS SQLServer Express 2012
Hello,
I am trying to use the new ‘Burn’ feature for installing my application.
I need to install ‘SQL Server Express 2012’ before installing my application.
Hence, I am putting it as a prerequisite. My code is as
follows:
<Bundle Name = "My Product
Version = "$(var.Version)"
Manufacturer = "My Company"
UpgradeCode = "$(var.UPGRADE_CODE)"
IconSourceFile = "BootStrap.ico" >
<WixVariable Id = "WixStdbaLicenseRtf" Value = Eula.rtf" />
<WixVariable Id = "WixStdbaLogo" Value = PageIcon.jpg" />
<BootstrapperApplicationRef Id =
"WixStandardBootstrapperApplication.RtfLicense" />
<Chain>
<PackageGroupRef Id = "SQLServerExpr" />
<MsiPackage SourceFile = "MySetup.msi"
Vital = "yes"
Compressed = "yes"
DisplayInternalUI="yes">
</MsiPackage>
</Chain>
</Bundle>
<util:RegistrySearch Root = "HKLM" Key = "SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Microsoft SQL
Server 2012 Redist\SqlDom\1033\CurrentVersion"
Value = "Version" Variable = "SQL2012RedistFound"
/>
<PackageGroup Id = "SQLServerExpr">
<ExePackage Id = "SQLServerExpr"
Cache = "no"
Compressed = "yes"
PerMachine = "yes"
Permanent = "yes"
Vital = "yes"
Name = "SQLEXPR_Setup_ENU.exe"
InstallCommand = "/ACTION=Install"
SourceFile = "SQLEXPR_Setup_ENU.exe"
DetectCondition = "SQL2012RedistFound" />
</PackageGroup>
But, when the bootstrapper tries to extract the SQL Server Express setup file,
it encounters the following error:
[0194:0198][2012-11-23T13:24:12]: Registering bundle dependency provider:

Please help me out of this. Thanks in advance.
