OK, I found the log file in %TEMP%. Here's basically what it says: [127C:12C0][2013-03-13T11:54:57]i001: Burn v3.7.1224.0, Windows v6.1 (Build 7601: Service Pack 1), path: C:\...\Setup.exe, cmdline: '' [127C:12C0][2013-03-13T11:54:57]i000: Initializing string variable 'InstallFolder' to value 'PlaceHolder' ...

Any pointer on what's wrong? -----Original Message----- From: George Fleming [mailto:gef...@microsoft.com] Sent: Wednesday, March 13, 2013 11:28 AM To: General discussion for Windows Installer XML toolset. Subject: Re: [WiX-users] Can Wix Boostrapper project be a VS Startup project? So any tip on how I can debug my problem? My Setup.exe doesn't seem to do anything (it just silently returns, with no screen pop up). Is there any way to invoke logging, like with msiexec? -----Original Message----- From: Rob Mensching [mailto:r...@robmensching.com] Sent: Wednesday, March 13, 2013 11:11 AM To: General discussion for Windows Installer XML toolset. Subject: Re: [WiX-users] Can Wix Boostrapper project be a VS Startup project? Not today. You can build the bootstrapper project but there are no debugging/launch features built into Votive. So all that F5 related stuff doesn't do anything.
