[Bob Arnson]

Please file a bug. It should be optional.

It has been optional, of course, until wix 3.11. With 3.11, If it is omitted, i get this error from candle.exe

Cannot set column 'IconFile' with a null value because this is a required field.

The icon is supposed to be optional, what is the exact error you are seeing?

I suppose that InternetShortcut is broken in WiX 3.11

My old Sources for an msi package containing an InternetShortcut do no longer compile, i get an error telling that property IconFile must be set.

However, when i set it, the msi compiles, but when i run it, it fails and is rolled back. The logfile states:

error 0x80070103: failed to read shortcut icon path from custom action data

Any ideas ?
