[wix-users] WiX Toolset 4

[Douglas, Keith (STATCAN)]

I think what might have confused Tyrel is that the documentation mentions IIS 6 everywhere. I started some "what is actually 7" things for some colleagues but never finished it or made it available in a polished form since they didn't know enough about installation and I don't enough about IIS to really write such a thing.

IIS 7 support has been present since at least WiX 3.5.  The current stable release is WiX 3.10.3.  Likewise, use either a standard BA or crafting your own MBA, most of the log file name improvements you are looking for (not using hex-based names in particular) are present.

WiX 4 is a major change and it will take some active development to get it there--which is underway.  At the earliest, I don't see a release before 2017.

Hi,

Does anyone know how close WiX 4 is to being released?  I need IIS 7 support (looks like that is in 4) and better support for tweaking the logging options (log level and filename) from the XML instead of passing parameters to msiexec.  Seems like a lot of the new things are found in 4.

Thanks,
Tyrel
