You have sited a very authoritative source to indicate that FTP is supported, and I am sure that he is correct, although I cannot provide more details.

Hmm ok I found the following source which said that ftp is supported:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/17785382/wix-bootstrapper-downloadurl-can-it-be-a-local-network-path
But sourcecode doesn't lie :-)
I now use a workaround which use the http protocol for the ftp-server:
http://ftp.uni-siegen.de/pub/CPAN/modules/by-module/...
Thanks for the lookup in sourcecode.

I think the protocol choices are http (using wininet) or bits, from looking at DownloadPayload() in src\burn\engine\apply.cpp

Hi,
are there any limitations to using a ftp download url in the ExePackage?
I tried several ftps and none are working: e.g:
... Error 0x80072ef2: Failed to acquire payload from: 'ftp://ftp.uni-siegen.de/pub/CPAN/modules/by-module/Perl/Perl-Dist-WiX-0.170.readme' to working path: ...
http urls worked fine.
Thanks for any hints,
Benny
