You are missing the <Feature> for the <Component> that will install the file.

In your case, you would create two folders, but your file would never get installed.

Hi all.



I'm using WiX 3.0.2211.0. My installer is pretty basic, but I have a
driver set provided by a partner that I want to have in its own .WXS,
since creating modular installers is a good thing to do. I've attached
both .WXS files (redacted and simplified); Product.wxs is the main and
PrintDriver.wxs is the fragment.



Every time I build the solution in Visual Studio 2005, I get the
following:



------ Rebuild All started: Project: Product, Configuration: Debug Any
CPU ------

                C:\Program Files\Windows Installer XML v3\bin\candle.exe
-dDebug -out obj\Debug\PrintDriver.wixobj PrintDriver.wxs

                C:\Program Files\Windows Installer XML v3\bin\candle.exe
-dDebug -out "obj\Debug\Product.wixobj" "Product.wxs"

                C:\Program Files\Windows Installer XML v3\bin\Light.exe
-out bin\Debug\Product.msi obj\Debug\PrintDriver.wixobj
"obj\Debug\Product.wixobj"

C:\Build\Installation\WiX\Product\Product.wxs(5,0): Warning LGHT1079:
The cabinet 'Product.cab' does not contain any files.  If this
installation contains no files, this warning can likely be safely
ignored.  Otherwise, please add files to the cabinet or remove it.

========== Rebuild All: 1 succeeded, 0 failed, 0 skipped ==========



What stupid thing did I forget to do while splitting this off in its own
Fragment? I've poured over the WiX v2 Tutorial, blogs, and this mailing
list for anything and have come up blank.
