Subject: [wix-users] Burn ManagedBA unable to resolve packaged .Net Framework redistributable

Hi,

I followed this guide
http://wixtoolset.org/documentation/manual/v3/howtos/redistributables_and_install_checks/install_dotnet.html
to install the .Net Framework 4.6.2 with burn. I performed Step 3 (there is a typo on the closing tag i guess <PayloadGroup/> instead of
</PayloadGroup>) and packaged the .Net Framework redistributable as part of the Bootstrapper Application. While everything is compiling fine the Setup is not able to install .Net Framework from the packaged redistributable.

[02E0:0BD4][2017-04-04T01:12:35]w343: Prompt for source of package: 
NetFx462Redist, payload: NetFx462Redist, path: 
C:\Users\testuser\Desktop\redist\NDP462-KB3151800-x86-x64-AllOS-ENU.exe

[02E0:070C][2017-04-04T01:12:35]e000: Error 0x80070002: Failed while caching, aborting execution.

The log shows that it cannot resolve the source of the NetFx462Redist package. The BootstrapperApplicationData.xml contains the following xml.

  <WixPackageProperties Package="NetFx462Redist" Vital="yes" 
DisplayName="Microsoft .NET Framework 4.6.2" Description="Microsoft .NET Framework 4.6.2 Setup" DownloadSize="62008080" PackageSize="62008080" 
InstalledSize="62008080" PackageType="Exe" Permanent="yes" 
LogPathVariable="NetFx462FullLog" 
RollbackLogPathVariable="WixBundleRollbackLog_NetFx462Redist"

/>
<WixPayloadProperties Payload="NetFx462Redist" Package="NetFx462Redist"

LayoutOnly="yes" />

In no temporary folder i was able to find the extracted .Net Framework executable, therefore i cannot use the SetLocalSource() Method provided by the Burn Engine. Im slowly but surley running out of ideas (and coffee). My Bundle.wxs for completeness

<PayloadGroup Id="NetFx462RedistPayload">
      <Payload Name="redist\NDP462-KB3151800-x86-x64-AllOS-ENU.exe" 
SourceFile="..\..\resources\NDP462-KB3151800-x86-x64-AllOS-ENU.exe"/>
</PayloadGroup>

<Chain>
      <PackageGroupRef Id="NetFx462Redist"/>
      <MsiPackage SourceFile="../../output/awin.notenbox.setup.msi" /> </Chain>

Greetings Julius
