Hi,
        Also its worth noting that you can enable logging for the whole
windows installer system (i.e. any msi run on the system) with a
registry key, if you don't want to fiddle with your MSI. This can be
handy for testing ARP uninstalls or repairs etc.

Don't forget to turn it off when you are done though :)

Hi, Cameron!

If I'm not mistaken you can use MsiLogging Property (you can read
details inside MSI SDK documentation).
Remarks: The MsiLogging property sets the default logging mode for the
Windows Installer package. If this optional property is present in the
Property table, the installer generates a log file named MSI*.LOG. The
full path to the log file is given by the value of the
MsiLogFileLocation property.

It comes with MSI 4.0 and above.

Hope this helps.

Ok,

So my current WiX application is building and works fine but
occasionally crashes.  In those cases I would like a log file.  I know I
can run msiexec from a commandline with the log command line switch, but
is there anyway within the actual WiX votive project to define to always
use the log command line switch when running this setup?

Thanks!

Cameron
