安装多个实例MSI时“应用转换时出错”

Question

我正在尝试使用WiX版本3.7.1224.0探索实例转换。我创建了一个测试项目（下面的源代码），我可以安装默认的ProductCode，但是当我尝试安装生成的MSI时，我收到一个错误：

msiexec /i SetupProject1.msi /l*vx install.log MSINEWINSTANCE=1 TRANSFORMS=":Alpha"

  

应用转换时出错。验证指定的转换路径是否有效

install.log似乎表明Property表中有一行“常规转换”期望查找和修改，但我不确定它可能正在寻找什么属性。我一直在阅读有关多个实例转换的MSDN文档，以及描述<InstanceTransforms>如何工作的WiX文档和博客文章，但我对它正在寻找的东西感到茫然。

事实证明，转换正在设置INSTANCENAME属性（显而易见，回想起来）。该属性需要具有默认值，因此它在属性表中列出。

<Property Id="INSTANCENAME" Value="Default" />
