I newbie using wix3.0.5419.0, and I am having a problem finding the Wix UI library. I have read WixUIExtension.dll is in the directory where I installed Wix, and all I need to do is run light.exe, and the library will be found. Some say A full path to light.exe might be required. In my wxs, in the <product></product> tag, I have: <Property Id="WIXUI_INSTALLDIR">INSTALLDIR</Property> <UIRef Id="WixUI_InstallDir" /> <UIRef Id="WixUI_ErrorProgressText" />
These are the incantations: candle.exe MyApp.wxs MyApp.fragment.wxs -ext WixUtilExtension light.exe -sval MyApp.wixobj MyApp.fragment.wixobj -ext WixUtilExtension -o MyApp.msi The error: MyApp.wxs(24) : error LGHT0094 : Unresolved reference to symbol 'WixUI:WixUI_InstallDir' in section 'Product:*'. MyApp.wxs(25) : error LGHT0094 : Unresolved reference to symbol 'WixUI:WixUI_ErrorProgressText' in section 'Product:*'. I tried from cygwin and cmd, with full paths to Wix directory and without full paths, but the outcome is always the same. It would be great if there was some environment variable I could set. Can you see anything wrong with what I am trying to do?
