WiX 3.0.5419, VS 2008.
Attempting to convert merge modules (only used internally) to wixlib. Almost
there, but have encountered a set of errors that make no sense. Example
fragment and error are below.
<Fragment>
<DirectoryRef Id="INSTALLDIR">
<Component Id="ConfigHkcuRemove"
Guid="DB0A90F0-DCEA-4022-A554-C9A67E561A67">
<RegistryValue Id="ConfigHkcuRemoveKey" Root="HKCU" Type="string"
Value="1" KeyPath="yes"
Key="Software\[PROPERTY1]\[PROPERTY2]\Install\Configuration Utility"/>
<RemoveRegistryKey Id="ConfigHkcuRemove" Root="HKCU"
Action="removeOnUninstall"
Key="Software\[PROPERTY1]\Configuration Utility"/>
</Component>
</DirectoryRef>
</Fragment>
Source.wxs(61,0): error LGHT0230: The Component/@Guid attribute's value '*' is
not valid for this component because it does not meet the some of the criteria
for having an automatically generated guid. Only components with no
ODBCDataSource child elements and either exactly one file which is the key path
or no files and a registry with no Property substitutions as the key path may
use an automatically generated guid.
Several Registry components have this issue, but I am at a loss as to why. Both
the RegistryValue and the RemoveRegistryKey elements are marked as errors; even
tho the Guid is not generated.
If anyone can give me some insight as to why this is happening, and even
better, what to do about it I would appreciate it.
Thanks,
bill
