That is what I finally figured out. Thanks.

Normally you should use TARGETDIR as the root of your components in a merge
module. When merging, these components' Directory entries will be rewritten to
have their parent set to the Directory that you place the Merge element in.
Any other directories you specify in your merge module are not retargeted.

I have an installer that includes a merge module:
...
Merge Id=Merge_UCCApi.msm DiskId=1 Language=1033
SourceFile=$(var._LCSROOT)\external\mgc\UCCApi.msm /
...
MergeRef Id=Merge_UCCApi.msm /
And I want to set the INSTALLDIR of the merge module to track the INSTALLDIR of
my installation package, so I tried this:
!-- Set value of INSTALLDIR in UccApp.msm to track the INSTALLDIR of this
installation package --
CustomAction Id=CA_SetUCCAPI_INSTALLLOCATION
Directory=INSTALLDIR.C1402412_4C1F_48DB_B516_EE41CFE8BCA9
Value=[INSTALLDIR] /
And get this error from light.exe:
100foo.wxs : error lght0112 : unresolved reference to symbol
'directory:installdir.c1402412_4c1f_48db_b516_ee41cfe8bca9' in section
'product:3212588d-108a-47a6-9ff1-56b425010302'.(0) : error 0112 : Unresolved

in section 'Product:3212588D-108A-47A6-9FF1-56B425010302'.
Looking at UccApi.msm in Orca, I see this is the Directory table:
[cid:image001.jpg@01C81A40.4CA6AD40]
Any thoughts as to how to get around this error?
Thanks.
