So I have this working from the command line already. What I want to do is duplicate the effect of "LOGVERBOSE=1 /l*v MyPackage.log" without having to provide it on the command line.
Essentially I want the package to default to verbose logging to file in the same dir as the MSI with the name I define in WiX (hopefully). - Phil -----Original Message----- From: Yan Sklyarenko [mailto:y...@sitecore.net] Sent: Wednesday, January 21, 2009 10:13 AM To: General discussion for Windows Installer XML toolset. Subject: Re: [WiX-users] Log File name This property enables verbose logging in WiX custom actions. It writes extra entries to the MSI log. See "/src/ca/wcautil/wcalog.cpp" in the WiX sources for more details. Take a look at MSI logging options running this command: msiexec /help So, in order to have "very" verbose log for WiX-based installation run it with the following command-line: msiexec /i YourPackage.msi LOGVERBOSE=1 /l*v install.log This works for me. Hope this helps. -- Yan -----Original Message----- From: phillip_sid...@dellteam.com [mailto:phillip_sid...@dellteam.com] Sent: Wednesday, January 21, 2009 5:51 PM To: wix-users@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: [WiX-users] Log File name So it looks like I can set logging to verbose in WiX with this property: <Property Id="LOGVERBOSE">1</Property> Is there a way in WiX to set the default logfile name, and have it be created in the same folder as the .msi?
