I'm developing multiple merge modules that share some data files in common. I want to have the data files defined in a Fragment that each merge module uses. For some reason, the files in my fragment doesn't install, even though it builds with no error. If I add the fragment to the main installer, it works like a charm. Is there something I have to do differently to get fragments to work with merge modules? Here's the code snippet of my Fragment (there are really more files, but this is an example): <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <Wix xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/wix/2006/wi";> <Fragment> <DirectoryRef Id="xml" > <Component Id='EOD.xmlxml' Guid='MY GUID HERE'> <File Id='EOD.xmlxml' Name='EOD.xml' Source='..\xml\EOD.xml' /> </Component> </DirectoryRef> </Fragment> </Wix> Now, here's the snippet of my merge module:
<Wix xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/wix/2006/wi";> <Module Id='MyMergeModule' Language='1033' Version='6.4.0.0'> <Package Id='[MY GUID HERE]' Description='My Module' Comments='My Module' Manufacturer='My Company' InstallerVersion='200' /> <Directory Id='TARGETDIR' Name='SourceDir'> <Directory Id='MyModuleDirectory' Name='.'> <Directory Id='etc' Name='etc'> <Component Id='linehandler.properties' Guid='[MY GUID HERE]'> <File Id='linehandler.properties' Name='linehandler.properties' Source='..\etc\DotNet\linehandler.properties' /> </Component> </Directory> <Directory Id='xml' Name='xml'> <Directory Id='templates' Name='templates'/> </Directory> </Directory> </Directory> </Module> </Wix> Here's how I build: candle mymodule.wxs Templates.wxs light -out mymodule.msm mymodule.wixobj Templates.wixobj -loc WixUI_en-us.wxl If I do the same thing to include them in my main installer, it works fine. I'm using WIX 3.0. --- Bradford Younie Senior Software Engineer Chase Paymentech Solutions 4 NE Blvd Salem, NH 03079-1952 Fax: 603-896-813 bradford.you...@chasepaymentech.com ---------- Learn more about Chase Paymentech Solutions,LLC payment processing services at www.chasepaymentech.com.
