In light.exe I am receiving the following error and do not know why. C:\VDSBeta\VDSInstaller\rcr.vds.wxs(23) : error LGHT0230 : The Component/@Guid attribute's value '*' is not valid for this component because it does not meet the criteria for having an automatically generated guid. Components using a Directory as a KeyPath or containing ODBCDataSource child elements cannot use an automatically generated guid. Make sure your component doesn't have a Directory as the KeyPath and move any ODBCDataSource child elements to components with explicit component guids.
I have tried to replace my ProductId with a real guid and that made no difference.
