I have a wix setup project, I build it and install it using following command line:

msiexec /i setup.msi /l* log.txt

My project has properties which are used by textboxes.

<Property Id="DataSource" Value="."/>
<Control Id="DataSourceText" Type="Edit" Text="." Height="17" Width="150" X="200" Y="18" Property="DataSource"/>

Those properties don’t display in the log file. Is there a way to make them displayed?

    Use upper case for property names and they will.

    I use /l*v option to get the verbose log from MSI. All events where a value is assigned to a property are logged, along with the new value. (This holds true both for upper-case public properties and mixed-case private properties.)

    If a property holds a password or other sensitive information, it should be marked with attribute Hidden="Yes". The values of such properties are not logged.
