As per that site, for general WiX questions, you really should use the 
[email protected]

Anyway, in this case it looks like a bug.  The CustomActions do not appear to 
be marked as “HideTarget”.  Can you please open a bug on this issue.

Also, what version of the WiX toolset are you using?

Hi,


We are using the SqlDatabase in-built Wix custom action to create our 
configuration database.  The db can be created using Windows auth as well as 
SQL auth (sa/passwd).

When sa/passwd is used, the log files show the password in clear text for the 
following 3 properties as well as the custom actions with the same name:

CreateDatabase
ExecuteSqlStrings
RollbackCreateDatabase

Is there any way I can prevent the password for being shown in the log file?

Thanks,
Abhishek
