Error creating wixobj file.
See original GitHub issueIm getting the following error when the compile()
method runs:
Unhandled rejection Error: Could not create wixobj file.
Code: 103 StdErr:
StdOut: candle.exe : error CNDL0103 :
The system cannot find the file 'dist\electronwin.wxs' with type 'Source'.
The create method runs and does make a .wxs file though.
Here is repo I’m working with: https://github.com/trevwaddell/electron-wix-test
I’m running this in a windows 10 vm with virtual box. I installed wix toolset and added them to my class path.

I got it working with the following code
Note that I go up one directory because I run this file from
<projectRoot>/bin/thisfile.js
I was having this problem, then I changed [outputDirectory: ‘./build’] to [outputDirectory: ‘C:/FullpPath/build’], and now it doesn’t throw this error.
But I still not running fine by other problems =[
