I've just started playing around with WiX because it seems like a great solution to editing tables with Orca. One thing I'm having a problem with is on the installation source the file names are different then what I want them to be when they are installed.
For instance, I have a file called file1.ex_ on the source. When it's installed I want it to become file1.exe. Is this possible? Here is what I have for my file element: <File Id="File1" Name="File1.exe" DiskId="1" Source="file1.ex_" Vital="yes" Compressed="no" /> I thought this would work because I don't get any errors when building it, but when I run the installation it gives me an error saying that the source file "file1.exe" cannot be found, etc. Maybe I'm just going about this the wrong way. Anyone have any suggestions? -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/File-on-source-are-different-then-when-installed-tf4548557.html#a12979842 Sent from the wix-users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
