I’m new to HeatWave / WiX and wanted to get started with it, but am running into a strange issue that I haven’t been able to find a resolution to.
In short, when I select Add > New Project
from the solution context menu, then choose the MSI Package
project and click Create
, the project creation wizard fails with the error message The SDK 'WixToolset.Sdk/6.0.0' specified could not be found.
I haven’t been able to find anywhere online that I can download this SDK except from NuGet, but I can’t install a NuGet package to the solution itself, so there doesn’t seem to be any way to make it available to this project creation wizard.
What am I missing here? The HeatWave documentation implies all I need to do is install the extension and create a project, and then add extra NuGet packages to the project after it has been created. No other steps for installation are mentioned.
For what it’s worth, I downloaded the VS extension from here and made sure I updated to the latest version of VS 2022 (17.13.6). If there’s any other details relevant to debugging this, let me know.
To be clear, I haven’t had any issues installing the extension itself (as far as I know anyway), it’s just that I can’t create a new project using the extension.
Thanks!
