I'm using WiX version 3.0.4617.0. A component can have its GUID defined like this : Guid="*" if under a standard directory. Here's a portion of the error message returned when trying to install to a nonstandard location:
"Since this path is not rooted in one of the standard directories (like ProgramFilesFolder), this component does not fit the criteria for having an automatically generated guid." The documentation seems to lack any mention of autogenerated GUIDs for components, so I was hoping someone could help me understand the standard directories restriction. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ WiX-users mailing list WiX-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/wix-users
