Name - The destination path and file name for this chain payload.
SourceFile - Location of the package to add to the bundle.

Using Burn, my setup generates 2 log files, one from the bundle and one from
an msi.
If my install fails, i'd like to display some sort of 'see this log file:
logfilename' so users will know what to send to us, and during test i dont
have to keep reminding people where to look (!)

Subject: Re: [WiX-users] Standard bootrapper with Wix -
All versions of WiX can generate MSIs targeting any version of Windows

toolset custom actions (usually via Extensions) because we compile against
the latest security approved CRTs which sets our minimum OS level to what

As we now have a 3.6 RC0, I wanted to take another stab at burn. When I
attempt to build on a clean machine (Win 7 x64) with just VS2010, the

Hi all,
At first I would like to introduce myself. I am member of Team MediaPortal,
an opensource media center.
For our next major version MediaPortal 2 which is completely re-written
from scratch we are using WiX for our installer instead of NSIS, which we
used for 1.x versions.
Thanks for this

Hi,

- is it possible to generate abal:WixStandardBootstrapperApplication/

Yes. It's permitted under a BootstrapperApplicationRef element, so
you'll need a separate BootstrapperApplication for your custom BA.

I bet you're using the WixUI and that has a custom action in it to verify
