I can build a managed custom action just fine using the DTF tools (I.E MakeSfxCA.exe)
My post build event command line looks like this:
"%WIX%SDK\MakeSfxCA.exe"
"$(TargetDir)$(TargetName).CA.dll"
"%WIX%SDK\x86\SfxCA.dll"
"$(TargetDir)$(TargetName).dll"
"$(TargetDir)Microsoft.Deployment.WindowsInstaller.dll"
But whenever I attempt to add a reference to the compiled dll I get an error stating something to the effect of
“make sure that the file is accessible and a valid WiX reference”
If i add the project as a ref using visual studio (2010 & 2008) my WiX Project compiles but does not use the dll. I receive this message when I attempt to run the msi
There is a problem with this Windows Installer package.
A DLL required for this install to complete could not be run.
Contact your support personnel or package vendor.
My wxs file looks like this
My OS is Windows 7 and I'm using .net 4.0 is that makes a difference
and I'm using the weekly build
