I have an .msi package with 5 external .cab files in my bootstrapper
application(not being compressed in my bootstrapper application, external)
which installs well locally, and has DownloadUrl attribute for web-based
installation.

But, when I execute my bootstrapper application without its .msi file and
.cab files(not accompanied by them in the same folder, i.e., executed solely
in a separate folder), it cannot download the .cab files although it can
download the .msi file(log files says that).

So, I added <Payload> elements for each .cab file under <MsiPackage> element
with DownloadUrl attributes set to their individual URL and Compressed
attibutes set to no. And then, when I execute my boostrapper application
solely, it downloads all its files well and installs well.

Should I manage all the <Payload> elements for .cab files under <MsiPakcage>
manually? No automatic download for .cab files?
