Sorry I wasn't being clear.. I am using light in a c# app. And this is what is happening:
Process light = new Process(); light.StartInfo.FileName = ....WiX toolset\light.exe"; light.StartInfo.Arguments = "\"" + OutputFolder +.....+ \WiXOutput.wixobj" + "\" " + "-out " + "\"" + OutputFolder + ..... + projectName + ".msi" + "\" " + ">build2.log " + "-ext WixUIExtension -loc " + "\"" + OutputFolder + @"\" + ...\Language.xml" + "\""; light.Start(); while (!light.HasExited) { Application.DoEvents(); Thread.Sleep(20); } When I debug and copy the light.StartInfo.Arguments string and paste it in the console, it works great. But not when I run my app. like I usually do it feels like it skips the candle and light process. It does not build anything and no log file is created... Maybe something to do with ">" char?? Or what do you think? Thank you in advance!
