[wix-users] How to provide installation log link even on successful execution.

[Phil Wilson]

Ah, I see that now yes. Maybe the MSI log would be useful also :)

Phil,
  Assuming he's talking about RtfTheme as in a WixStdBA theme file.

Looks like the clicks are hard coded single purpose -
WixStandardBootstrapperApplication.cpp:

case WM_NOTIFY:
...
                    case WIXSTDBA_CONTROL_FAILURE_LOGFILE_LINK:
                        pBA->OnClickLogFileLink();
                        return 1;

It wouldn't be hard to tweak it, but it's not going to do it out of the box.

If you are using a recent MSI engine you could use the MsiLogFileLocation
property.

Hello All,
Due to client request , I need to display the installation log link even on
successful execution.
The wix burn generates the log in the widows %temp% dierctory.
I just need to provide the link to this log file ( same as that in case of
Failed execution.) I can provide the link by customizing the
LocalizationFile  RtfTheme.wxl and the ThemeFile RtfLargeTheme.xml file.
However, this just provides the false link. The log file doesnt gets opened
?

Is there any way to open the log file even in case of successfull execution
scenario ?

Thanks & Regards
Shanky
