[wix-users] Setup Project with Visual Studio and 2 web project

[Marco Alquati]

Hi, the error message is "Undefined preprocessor variable '$(var.Web.Host.PackageDir)'.".
Yes, I have referenced both wxs into the setup project.
If I did not understand, the problem is that the system is using only a variable for compiling through candle.exe and not both variables.
To create the variable I used the following statement. However, it does not seem to generate a variable for each of the projects, but creates only one global one with the last project listed.

<CreateProperty Value="$(DefineConstants);%(ProjectReference.Name).PackageDir=%(ProjectReference.RootDir)%(ProjectReference.Directory)obj\$(Configuration)\Package\PackageTmp\">
        <Output TaskParameter="Value" PropertyName="DefineConstants" />
    </CreateProperty>

Provide all the text around that error. Have you referenced the project you are packaging in your wix project within that solution?
