Failed to resolve source for payload

[gheradel]

We're upgrading from v3 to v4. We use a custom ba to do login and provisioning before we install the application. I've finally got the boostrapper building and running but when it goes to run the installer i am met failure.

Failed to resolve source for payload: XXX.Installer.msi, package: XXX.Installer.msi, container: (null), error: 0x80070002.
Error 0x80070002: Failed to resolve source, payload: XXX.Installer.msi, package: XXX.Installer.msi, container: (null)

The MSI itself runs fine if i run it manually from the command line and pass it all the values it needs but not when run via the bootstrapper. I've seen some stuff about x86 vs x64 and i've made sure my installer, bootstrapper and bundle project are all x64

my bundle.wxs

<Wix

        <MsiProperty Name="XXXVariable5" Value="[XXXVariable5]" />
      </MsiPackage>
    </Chain>
  </Bundle>
</Wix>

Any help\tips would be appreciated.

I solved it, In the CacheAcquireResolving we were setting the event args action incorrectly

Can you please share the code?

[gheradel]

We were hooking into the CacheAcquireResolving event and had code that was setting the event args Action property.

Bootstrapper.CacheAcquireResolving += CacheAcquireResolving;

private void CacheAcquireResolving( object sender, CacheAcquireResolvingEventArgs e )
{
e.Action = ? CacheResolveOperation.Download : CacheResolveOperation.None;
}

We ended up just removing that method completely and it resolved the issue.
