Re: [xsl] xpath query failing

I'm afraid this is the number 1 xpath gotcha. Your nlog element is in a 
namespace and you are searching for nlog elements in no namespace.

The framework in which you are executing the XPath expression should give you 
some means of binding a prefix to the namespace, for example

setNamespaceBinding("n", "http://www.nlog-project.org/schemas/NLog.xsd";)

You can then use the path expression "/n:nlog/@throwExceptions"

Hi Michael,
Looks like I am out of luck, according to 
https://sourceforge.net/p/wix/bugs/2384/
the WIX toolset neglects to implement this functionality.

There goes a day writing a custom action to do this the hard way:(

Thanks for the confirmation and insight!
