You have to duplicate the code I'm afraid. The IDs must differ between the two copies.
-----Original Message----- From: StevenOgilvie [mailto:sogil...@msn.com] Sent: 02 January 2013 18:49 To: wix-users@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: [WiX-users] WixLibs questions... I have about 10 WixLibs and they are all binaries, an example is such: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <Wix xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/wix/2006/wi";> <?include $(var.SolutionDir)\Includes\Variables.wxi ?> <Fragment> <ComponentGroup Id="cmpgrp_Log4Net" Directory="WixLibRedirectFolder"> <Component Id="cmp_Log4Net" Guid="{CB08ECF2-0F34-4324-BD22-0C1A6E042252}"> <File Id="file_log4net" KeyPath="yes" Name="log4net.dll" Source="$(var.sourcePath)ThirdParty\log4net.dll"/> </Component> </ComponentGroup> </Fragment> </Wix> I use WixLibRedirectFolder in all of the wixlibs as the directory... I have 4 msi's with merge modules, I want to move the merge modules into the Product.WXS for each MSI... no problem, however most the of the merge modules have links to the wixlibs: <ComponentGroupRef Id="cmpgrp_Log4Net"/> In my product.wxs I have 2 merge modules that are linking/referencing the wixlibs, so in my product.wxs I need to install the files in the wixlibs to two different locations: <Directory Id="WixLibRedirectFolder" Name="bin"> (this is one) and <Directory Id="WixLibRedirectFolder" Name="ConfigUtil"> but I can't have a directory with the same Id... Question: How do I use a wixlib in multiple locations in the Product.wxs? Since I am getting this error: Error 2 Duplicate symbol 'Directory:WixLibRedirectFolder' found. This typically means that an Id is duplicated. Check to make sure all your identifiers of a given type (File, Component, Feature) are unique.
