[wix-users] SQL express remote payload fails to download

[Carlos Sosa]

The URL is correct 
https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/confirmation.aspx?id=55994
but it tries to download it to: 'C:\Users\test\AppData\Local\Temp\{32A07D65-141A-42FB-A38E-3778FCBCB5D7}\SQL_online'
Because the Prompt for source of package: SQL_online, payload: SQL_online, path: is:
C:\Users\test\Desktop\SQLServer2017-SSEI-Expr.exe

Unless I'm not understanding the error, I think the wrong path refers to the mismatch not to the url itself.

Thoughts?

winerror.h 0x80070003
#define ERROR_PATH_NOT_FOUND
The system cannot find the path specified.

Wrong URL?

Subject: [wix-users] SQL express remote payload fails to download


Hello, I'm trying to get the SQL express installer directly from MS (online) using a remote payload, I get the following error:

Acquiring package: SQL_online, payload: SQL_online, download from: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/confirmation.aspx?id=55994
[23F0:1594][2018-04-27T10:54:01]e000: Error 0x80070003: Failed attempt to download URL: 'https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/confirmation.aspx?id=55994' to: 'C:\Users\test\AppData\Local\Temp\{32A07D65-141A-42FB-A38E-3778FCBCB5D7}\SQL_online'
[23F0:1594][2018-04-27T10:54:01]w343: Prompt for source of package: SQL_online, payload: SQL_online, path: C:\Users\test\Desktop\SQLServer2017-SSEI-Expr.exe

I assume that the attempted download location (C:\Users\test\AppData\Local\Temp\{32A07D65-141A-42FB-A38E-3778FCBCB5D7}\SQL_online)
and the target (C:\Users\test\Desktop\SQLServer2017-SSEI-Expr.exe ) Does not match .
Is this correct, and if so, how can I fix it? I don't see a tag for "extract to" or similar.

Any help is appreciated.
Best.
