You don't need to create the cab yourself. WiX will do that for you.

embedded CAB working properly

 

I'm trying to package up a C# application I've made.  The final
installer will need to set some registry keys, but for now I'm trying to
just get simple file copying to work.  I've created a CAB file
containing the EXE and a few supporting files by using cabarc.exe:

 

cabarc N product.cab Release\*.* Release\images\*.* Release\icons\*.*

 

This creates product.cab, which definitely contains the files.

 

I then create a WIX project in VS2005 and modify the template
Product.wxs to include this:

 



http://schemas.microsoft.com/wix/2006/wi";>





 



 

  



  



  







  

  











 

I copy my CAB file to the project folder (same folder as Product.wxs),
compile, and get a "The system cannot find the file 'id14.exe' error.

 

Am I missing some simple step?  I looked through the tutorial and docs
but they mostly skipped over how to stage the CAB file properly.  

 

Thanks,
