Resolution

There are 2 ways to generate a Job Out for SXP packages:

1.- If this package was made by a snapshot, it's possible to have Job Output by enabling "SM Installer: Enable trace"

This will create data in the Job Output tab of the sent job.

2.- If the Packager is just being used as a wrapper to the install program, then it's possible to use the parameter in the package definition, like this example:

“setup.exe /s /l $(SxpOutputFile)”.

There are also other parameters available for SXP packages, as shown here:
