[WiX-users] MSBuild / localisation variable problem - culture information not passed in???

[Martin E. <mar...@ac...>]

Bob,

I had not thought to try this locally outside VS and yes I do get the same 
errors. I copied the light.exe cmd from the TFS build log and tried the 
same:

Light.exe -ext "WixUIExtension.dll" -out "c:\Web UI Setup.msi" 
C:\....\WebUiSetup.wixobj

It would appear that the Light.exe cmd run by MSBuild does not contain the 
-culture information because when I do the following it is OK.

Light.exe -ext "WixUIExtension.dll" -cultures:en-us -out "c:\Web UI 
Setup.msi" C:\...\WebUiSetup.wixobj

Stabbing in the dark a bit....is this something that needs setting/editing 
in the wix.targets file?

Please ensure the variable is defined. 

Is that the only error you get? Does it build correctly on your local 
machine outside VS?

Make sure your .wixproj has a PropertyGroup that includes

<Cultures>en-us</Cultures>

(or some other Cultures value). That loads the US English strings, which 
includes a value for WixUIOK.
