Hello,
I would
like to install two ftdi (VCP: USB to COM) drivers with WiX, among others app
stuff. I have the last WiX, i.e. v3.6. I’m bugging with it for quite some days.
I’ve read quite a lot of stuff about WiX and about drivers installation. I
haven’t checked both .inf files with ChkINF yet, but I suppose they are fine
since we use it already. I haven’t used explicit CustomAction as I saw in some
suggestions as It looks like old stuff. Well I’m using plain .wsx with
Notepad++ and command prompt candle.exe and light.exe in Win 7. I know
both drivers has to be in separate WiX components. I used difx:Driver tag as
you can see below. I have a ref in xmlns to the Difxapp extension. I used the
switches –ext in candle and light as I guessed. Maybe I’m following the wrong
path. Please, help. But as with that switch the candle compiler produce no
errors, I assume it is all right. Please, direct me to some driver installation
(two drivers even!) with WiX 3.6.
The
following is ok:
candle.exe
-ext WixDifxappExtension ftdiinstall.wsx
But after
this, I get errors:
light -ext
WixDifxappExtension ftdiinstall.wixobj
Namely:
C:\Users\hob\Documents\WiX\ftdiinstall.wsx(29)
: error LGHT0094 : Unresolved ref
erence to
symbol 'CustomAction:MsiProcessDrivers' in section 'Product:{E00E5A99-
