I am trying the same thing and I don't understand your response :( I am doing MyBurnEXE.exe MYVAR=Something
Then in the MSIPackage: <MsiPackage Id="MainInstall" DisplayName="$(var.ProductName)" SourceFile="$(var.OutDir)MyMSI.msi" Name="RedistTMC\MyMSI.msi" InstallCondition="some install condition" DisplayInternalUI="no" Visible="no" Cache="no" Compressed="no" Permanent="no" Vital="yes"> <MsiProperty Name="MYVAR" Value="[MYVAR]" /> </MsiPackage> In the burn/bootstrapper log file I see cmdline: 'MYVAR=Something blah blah...' so I know it is being picked up, But later on in burn/bootstrapper log file I see the MSI being launched and has arguments: ' MYVAR="" I even tried <MsiProperty Name="MYVAR" Value="MYVAR" /> but that literally took the value as MYVAR :( What am I doing wrong? thanks, Steve -- View this message in context: http://windows-installer-xml-wix-toolset.687559.n2.nabble.com/Burn-command-line-parameters-tp7323306p7585201.html Sent from the wix-users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Precog is a next-generation analytics platform capable of advanced analytics on semi-structured data.
