[wix-users] Self Copy

Tue May 10 00:34:33 PDT 2016

Hello,

Thank you for the response.

I ran the following command:

C:\MySetup\Output> Setup.exe -layout C:\MySetup\Output\Layout

This results in a installer of just 557 KB while the original installer is 1.4 GB.
I still tried to run it on the same and a different machine in the network but this instantly fails and results in this:

[07D0:00E0][2016-03-24T11:41:04]e000: Error 0x80070001: Failed to extract all files from container, erf: 1:2:0

[07D0:00F0][2016-03-24T11:41:04]e000: Error 0x80070001: Failed to open container: WixAttachedContainer.
[07D0:00F0][2016-03-24T11:41:04]e312: Failed to extract payloads from container: WixAttachedContainer to working path: C:\TEMP\{GUID}\GUID, error: 0x80070001.
[07D0:07BC][2016-03-24T11:41:04]e000: Error 0x80070001: Failed while caching, aborting execution.

Seems to me that there should be a container alongside this exe. Did i miss something in the command?
Or do i have to define something in the bundle code to make this work?

Kind regards,
Stijn de Winter

In a properly designed bundle, passing -layout and a directory location (by property or directly) will cause the Engine to create a tree with the contents of the bundle arranged.

Note:  The directory cannot be the same directory as the directory with the bundle.

The drive it will be copied to is a network drive and used by other machines to run the installation from.

What are you attempting to accomplish.  The bundle will already cache itself, and in 3.10.2 and later, it will copy itself to a clean room for execution.

Hello all,

I made a WiX bundle and now want it to copy itself to a location (C:\OPY TO HERE\).

Anyone ever done this or knows whether this is possbile?

Kind Regards,

?Stijn de Winter
