[wix-users] Get Debug Information out of Burn-driven MSI installation?

[Reuss, Matthias]

Hi Phill,

I have just tried this. Set the MsiLogging property in one MSI package to voicewarmupx and ran int from Burn - got "only" a verbose log.
Ran this same pack from the command line - got debug log.
According to MSI documentation (keyword "Normal logging"), The logging mode specified in MsiEnableLog (which I assume Burn uses) overrides the default logging mode set by the MsiLogging property.

Are you setting voicewarmupx on a different place?

Best regards

Matthias Reuss

No. use voicewarmupx if you like.

Hello,

MSI allows to get some debug information exceeding "normal" verbose logging e.g. by setting the MsiLogging property to "voicewarmupx".

I have learnt that Burn handles MSI logging in such a way that chained MSI packages always produce "verbose" log files (voicewarmup), see e.g. http://windows-installer-xml-wix-toolset.687559.n2.nabble.com/Use-of-MsiLogging-in-Burn-driven-MSI-td7597242.html

Does this mean that I have no chance to get debug output for a Burn-driven installation?

Best regards
