InstallUtil is not recommended. Managed code in installers is not
recommended. InstallUtil.dll is not documented. The Visual Studio team might
be able to help, but no-one else.
Your best bet is probably to use FileMon
(http://www.microsoft.com/technet/sysinternals/FileAndDisk/Filemon.mspx) to
track where the file is written to.

Subject: [WiX-users] turning logging on for installutil
I'm editing with Orca a MSI generated with WiX. In the custom actions table
I have an entry for custom action type 1025:
/Configuration="[INSTALLDIR]SoftwareFactory91.xml"
/installtype=notransaction /action=install /LogFile= "[#InstallerAssembly]"
"[#InstallerConfigFile]"
When using the MSI (with verbose logging) I'm noticing that this custom
error is failing so I would like to turn logging on for installutil. I'm
modifying the above entry like this:
/Configuration="[INSTALLDIR]SoftwareFactory91.xml"
/installtype=notransaction /action=install /LogFile="blah.log"
"[#InstallerAssembly]" "[#InstallerConfigFile]"
and I'm not getting any blah.log file...; I'm not sure where this log file
should be writed to but checked a few folders (the current one where the MSI
is, the one where the assembly containing the installer class is, etc)
without any luck...
Any hints?
thanks!,
-Victor.
