Okay this is wierd... if I remove the custom action from the Merge Module and place it in my product.wxs the path is "created" properly by using <CustomAction Id="SetEALNBService" Property="EALNBService" Value=""[ProgramFilesFolder]\MyCompany\MyProduct\Services\EnterpriseAuditLogService\NServiceBus.Host.exe" /installInfrastructure" Execute="immediate" />
This gets properly changed: [ProgramFilesFolder] BUT the same line as above in my merge module does NOT... Line from log file: PROPERTY CHANGE: Adding EALNBService.CA23A0DC_B2DE_4F2C_9E74_FD373F99E9D7 property. Its value is '"\MyCompany\MyProduct\Services\EnterpriseAuditLogService\NServiceBus.Host.exe" /installInfrastructure'. as a work around I have moved my custom action for the services from the merge modules to the product.wxs BUT it should work in a merge module!! -- View this message in context: http://windows-installer-xml-wix-toolset.687559.n2.nabble.com/define-element-for-ProgramFilesFolder-not-working-in-include-file-tp7580463p7580481.html Sent from the wix-users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
