I'm new to Burn, and was trying my first test dummy setup with GUI that I found here: http://bryanpjohnston.com/2012/09/28/custom-wix-managed-bootstrapper-application/
Solution contains three projects: TestBA.csproj, DummyInstaller.wixproj, and BootstrapperSetup.wixproj. I removed all the MVVM stuff from TestBA project and left there only one MessageBox. TestBA and DummyInstaller projects build just fine, but BootstrapperSetup project could not build giving me this: ------ Build started: Project: BootstrapperSetup, Configuration: Debug x86 ------ ... E:\delivery\Dev\wix36_public\src\ext\BalExtension\wixlib\Mba.wxs(62,0): error LGHT0197: The Windows Installer XML variable !(wix.WixMbaPrereqPackageId) is unknown. Please ensure the variable is declared on the command line for light.exe, via a WixVariable element, or inline using the syntax !(wix.WixMbaPrereqPackageId=some value which doesn't contain parenthesis). E:\delivery\Dev\wix36_public\src\ext\BalExtension\wixlib\Mba.wxs(62,0): error LGHT0197: The Windows Installer XML variable !(wix.WixMbaPrereqLicenseUrl) is unknown. Please ensure the variable is declared on the command line for light.exe, via a WixVariable element, or inline using the syntax !(wix.WixMbaPrereqLicenseUrl=some value which doesn't contain parenthesis). Done building project "BootstrapperSetup.wixproj" -- FAILED. BUT, when I move two WixVariable elements from Fragment to Bundle element just above it in Bundle.wxs file then everything builds just fine. What is going on here? WiX version given in Visual Studio about box is Windows Installer XML Toolset 3.6.3303.0. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ LogMeIn Rescue: Anywhere, Anytime Remote support for IT.
