In my case, i have defined some bundle variable like this example: <Variable Name="DB_USER" bal:Overridable="yes" Type="string" Value="default" Hidden="yes"/>
And in my GUI i set that variable: Bootstrapper.Engine.StringVariables["DB_USER"] = value; I have tested the bootstrapper on a virtual machine (Hyper-V) with OS Windows 8 and had absolutely no problems. Last friday my project manager tested it on VirtualBox with OS Windows 7 and get's always an error when the DB_USER-variable shall be setted. The log says, that a integer variable can't be setted, instead the DB_USER-variable is - as You can see - of type string. Other variables, which are of type string, make no problems. And the value i want to set is of type string too. Is there maybe a difference between Windows 8 and Windows 7, which can cause that error? Meanwhile i believe in all.
