how to create patches with few changes

Question

I´m trying to build patches for my application using vs2010. I used these tutorials:

http://www.codeguru.com/csharp/.net/net_general/visualstudionetadd-ins/article.php/c9663

http://www.codeproject.com/script/Articles/ViewDownloads.aspx?aid=11373

But I get an error with code 0xC00E5114. The resulting log says: ERROR: UpgradedImages.MsiPath 'c:\project\setup2\' does not exist. It's supposed that this path contains the updated msi. How to solve this??

I used this method because I just make few changes and don't wanna buy tools like installshield (excellent, but expensive). Or does anybody know another method or tool?

Thanks!

Try to remove all blank in your filename. Msimsp.exe likes short name (test.msi for example).
