/qb means that the user interface sequence isn't run, so make sure your search (I think there'll be an AppSearch standard action) is in the Execute and UI sequences.

Subject: [WiX-users] DirectorySearch/FileSearch not executed if msiexec runs with qb ? Hi I'm trying to copy a file FOO.DB to the APPLICATIONFOLDER. The FOO.DB can optionally copied into the same folder like the MSI, but is not included in the MSI. The FOO.DB is optional; it may be there or not. If I run the setup interactively it just works. If I'm running it with /qb the FOO.DB is not copied to the APPLICATIONFOLDER. <Property Id="CUSTOM_PRE_CONFIGURATION" Secure="yes"> <DirectorySearch Id="DirSearch" Path="[SOURCEDIR]" Depth="0"> <FileSearch Id="FileSearch" Name="foo.db" /> </DirectorySearch> </Property> <Directory Id="TARGETDIR" Name="SourceDir"> <Directory Id="ProgramFilesFolder"> <Directory Id="APPLICATIONFOLDER" Name="$(var.ProductName)"> <Component Id="FOO.DB" Guid="GUID"> <CopyFile Id="FOO.DB" SourceProperty="CUSTOM_PRE_CONFIGURATION" DestinationProperty="APPLICATIONFOLDER" /> </Component> MSI debugging with /qb shows: MSI (s) (80:C8) [22:34:54:130]: Dir (target): Key: CUSTOM_PRE_CONFIGURATION , Object: NULL >From the logfile it looks like the FileSearch is not executed at all with /QB. Any idea what I'm doing wrong or if this is a bug? If a bug I need a workaround...
